South Africa has a democracy on paper. It was a internationally recognized Republic under the 'National Party' (which held the infamous policy of Apartheid) from 1948 to 1994, but held its first "democratic" elections in 1994.
South Africa is not a true democracy yet, until the current ANC regime gives over power to an opposition without clinging to power. Only once power was transferred will South Africa be recognized as a true democracy. Until then South Africa is a one party state.
