What is the difference between the republic state and democratic state?
The term "republic" is rather general, and is used to indicate a state in which the public can elect or nominate a ruler instead of having the state be ruled by a monarch. Currently, 135 countries claim to be republics. There are many different types of republics, though. For example, there are socialist republics, communist republics, mercantile republics, Calvinist republics, democratic republics, liberal republics, and even Islamic republics. The United States operates as a democratic republic, which is a state that has publicly-elected rulers, and in which all members of the public are guaranteed the same rights, even despite minority status.

Most republics have a president. In some republics the president runs the government. It other republics the president is a figurehead and the government is run by a prime minister.A republic is a form of government which is not ruled by a king or emperor or some other aristocrats, such as a prince (who is rules by a Principate) or a duke (who rules a Duchy or Grand Duchy). That is all that is needed for the definition of a republic.Nowadays, the bulk of modern counties in the word are republics. There are only 2 absolute monarchies (the king rules; Saudi Arabia and Swaziland) 16 constitutional monarchies (the monarch is a figurehead who does not run the government) 1 constitutional emperor (in Japan) 2 absolute sultanates (Brunei and Oman), 1 absolute emirate (Qatar) 3 constitutional or mixed emirates (Bahrain, Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates) 3 constitutional principalities (Andorra, Liechtenstein and Monaco) and 1 constitutional Grand Duchy (Luxembourg).A republic can be a democracy, an authoritarian state, a dictatorship or a totalitarian state. Recently many republics in the developing word have been authoritarian states or dictatorships (some under a civilian dictator and some by a military dictatorship).Famous examples of republics with military dictatorships are the military juntas in South America in the 1970s. Famous examples of republics with civilian dictator are the Philippines under Marcos and Iraq under Saddam Hussein. Saddam Hussein also provides an example of a civilian dictator of a republic who also puts himself in charge of the army. Even some Western European countries have been republics which were dictatorships: Portugal (under the Ditadura Nacional, 1926-32, Salazar, 1932-68, and Caetano, 1968-74) and Greece under the Regime of the Colonels (1967-74). The dictatorial Regime of the Colonels also overthrew the Greek monarchy and established a republic. Although Francisco Francodid not abolish the Spanish monarchy and he appointed Juan Carlos I de Borbón as his successor, his dictatorship was effectively a republic. Franco ruled as Regent to the King of Spain and Juan Carlo had no say in politics.Communistcountries, like the Soviet Union (which is short for Union of Soviet Socialist Republics) its communist satellite countries in Eastern Europe and other communist regimes in the developing word were republics with a totalitarian state. China and North Korea, Vietnam and Cuba are still communist republics.Nazi Germany was a republic.
