Republic
a democracy is a government in which the people vote on the decisions being made.
a limited government is a government that allows people to have freedom and lets them vote in elections
In a direct democracy, citizens directly vote for all decisions made by the government. In an indirect democracy, they vote for representatives who, in turn, vote for decisions.
