A republic is different from democracy..... yes everyone can vote......but vote whom????
In a republic, the head of state is elected. France is a republic country.... China follows communism..... just find about China's form of government......

A republic is normally a system of government containing a Legislature to pass laws, an Executive to govern and make policy and a Judiciary to enforce laws and balance out the others. Key to this is that both the Executive and Legislature are elected and they appoint the Judiciary in some way but once appointed they don't actually have to listen to anyone. The exact form varies depending on the country.
Example: India has a weakish President, Parliament with a powerful Prime Minister and Courts -where as US has very weak "Prime Ministers" in the form of the Majority Leader but powerful Presidents and more politically involved Judges.
Communism is an Ideology about sharing the wealth and power in a nation. Everyone working together for the common good. In the real world various states have been governed by Communist parties at some point. USSR and China being the most obvious. An Ideal Communist state would have increasingly powerful councils governing them.
So... My mates and I are part of a farming collective. We send representatives to a local farming council which sends people to a regional council with sends people to a national council - committees are formed to do things and votes taken on policies and so on - everybody gets a say and everybody works together. This pretty much never happens in reality.
Example: The USSR (Union of Soviet Socialist Republics...) and China are/were both technically Republics - they have the basic structure outlined above. But since the Party represents everyone there is no need for any other parties right? This means they are one party states - you can vote for the Party or err the Party. The result is they become much more like dictatorships as power within the Party leads to national power and as the leaders become more powerful they listen less and less to the people especially those not in the party.
Hope this helps! :)

The point of Marxist Communism is to "spread the revolution". One of the most striking differences between Communism and Socialism is that Socialism calls for reform, but Communism calls for revolution.
Political differences Soviet Union was communist and wanted to spread communism around the world USA was anti communist and prevent communism spreading and install democracy
Well Federalism is sharing power between states

Communism is when everyone is equal and that fails epicly and the other thing is when you have to levels rich and poor...theres no in between, mostly the people are poor...

The two views of republicanism—classical republicanism and modern republicanism—differ primarily in their focus on civic virtue versus individual rights. Classical republicanism emphasizes the importance of civic participation and the common good, often advocating for a community-oriented approach to governance. In contrast, modern republicanism prioritizes individual freedoms and rights, promoting the idea that a just government protects these rights while still fostering civic engagement. Despite these differences, both views share a commitment to the rule of law and the importance of a government accountable to its citizens.
Classical republicanism emphasizes the importance of civic virtue, common good, and the community's well-being, whereas natural rights philosophy prioritizes individual rights, autonomy, and the idea that certain rights are inherent and inalienable. Classical republicanism's focus is on the state's role in promoting the public good and maintaining social harmony, while natural rights philosophy stresses the limitations of government and the protection of individual liberties.
Some differences between Russia and Western Europe are that Russia is more Orthodox Christian and western Europe is more into Catholic religion. Russia has communism, but western Europe has democratic government. Other differences are that Russia has a strong military and loads of military weapons, but western Europe has none or less.
Socialism is a less restrictive form of Communism. While socialism is communist based, it can fall under various forms of fascism. In fact, Hitler's original party was based on National Socialism.
