The oldest republic in the Middle East is Turkey, which was founded in 1923.
Answer 2The oldest republic doesn't mean oldest democracy. UK and Sweden are based on kingdom and enjoy democracy.
From my own point of view the oldest democracy in the Muddle East is in Lebanon. Lebanon traditionally enjoyed a confessional democratic system. Indeed, Lebanon had prided itself on its democratic environment which sought to maintain a semblance of equity within its diverse population, and claims were made that within the country 'democracy and freedom are indispensable ingredient for a stable political system'. The Lebanese constitution that was written in 1926 was based on the French constitution and it secured equality and freedom among all its citizens. A large number of political parties, with very different ideologies, are active in Lebanon, but most of them form political alliances with other groups of similar interests. Even though certain high profile positions in the government and the seats in the parliament are reserved to specified sects, very strong competition between different party and independent candidates are usually expected in elections.
