Yes, democracy matters because it ensures that citizens have a voice in governance and can participate in decision-making processes. It promotes accountability, protects individual rights, and fosters social justice by allowing diverse perspectives to be heard. Additionally, democratic systems tend to support stability and economic development by encouraging civic engagement and trust in institutions. Ultimately, democracy empowers people and contributes to a more equitable society.
The problem with any democracy- a Majority rules no matter what.
That is entirely a matter of opinion.
Bolivia is a democracy, we have no queen. or king for that matter, lol
Democracy is typically considered a matter of degree, as there can be different levels of democratic practices within a political system. It can be seen as both a sortal concept, where a country is either democratic or not, as well as a scalar concept, with varying degrees of democracy existing along a spectrum.
In ancient Greece, the city state of Athens had a democracy where each and every citizen voted on a matter. The United States has an indirect democracy where the citizens vote for representatives into a body (the senate and house of representatives) and they are the ones who actually vote for legislation.
A representative democracy. And like pure democracies, they can vote on anything they like. A representative democracy that has restrictions, such as rights that people retain no matter what, is a republic.
In a dictatorship, only one person's opinion matters. In a democracy, multiple people's opinions matter. As a result, you are more likely to have disagreement in a democracy than a dictatorship. This disagreement is usually termed as "gridlock" by those who are annoyed by it.
According to the Greek Philosipher Plato: A democracy, can not survive without an enemy.

Very simple. Democracy allows, or attempts to allow, people to govern themselves and decide how they will live. Theoretically no one is above the law in a democracy. With a dictatorship people are told what to do and how to live, and they have no say in the matter. It is possible for a dictatorship to be benevolent and a democracy to be unjust, but people will often choose democracy over dictatorship, if they have a choice.
The Roman republic was a democracy in which the government leaders were elected by the people to speak for them and to rule them.
