i. All people have the same right to vote, regardless of their ethnic or cultural origin, economic or educational level.
ii. All people are considered valuable for the decision-making process.
iii. All people have the opportunity to apply for public office. Democracy is a form of political system in which the sovereignty of the citizens of electing their governors is defended.
3. Members of Waimer Republic were called November Criminals
4. Their major role was Ideas envisaging a society based on freedom and equal laws and opportunities for all.
5.The French treasury was already drained out in the reign of Louis XVI in 1774 due to wars and maintenance of the ornate court at the palace of Versailles.In addition to this, France assisted the thirteen American colonies to get independence from Britain.This increased the debt to another one billion livres. Hence the moneylenders started charging a higher rate of interest of upto 10 per cent.This made the French government to spend further on interest payments alone.Thus in order to meet the recurring expenses, the state was obliged to increase taxes.The French society was divided into three estates and only the third estate members were required to pay taxes.
6. It was signed on 28 June 1919 between Germany and the Allied Powers.
8. The nobility, The clergy and The third estate.
9. Some privileges enjoyed by the clergy and nobility are:
• They are not liable to pay taxes to the government.
• Third estate or the peasants provide services to them.

10. Tithes was the special tax levied by the church on peasants.
11. It is not possible for people to rule directly but through their elected representatives because:
a. Owing to large territory and large population in countries it is not possible for people to assemble together and make policies for themselves as the case in direct democracy, hence countries opt for a representative form of government where representatives from parties are to be chosen by the people.
b. A highly diverse, large and complex societies need a medium by means of representatives that would establish a link between the government and people. Representation of diverse interests would be difficult in a direct democracy as it would lead to more of a conflict and chaos.
c. If all people are involved in the decision making , it would be difficult to reach at a consensus.Hence, indirect form with less number of people or representatives who are involved in discussion and deliberation can easily bring about reconciliation of diverse interests.
d. If people rule themselves, it would make system more chaotic as would invariably transform into a mob rule.
e. There is also a possibility of majority section undermining the interests of the minorities and not representating them rather suppressing them.
12. The main role of citizens is to vote
they participate in the desicion making of the country they can satnd and compete in elections they can form their own ploitical party if they are opposing something they can start a movement citizens have to work for the devlopment of the democracies because the democracy is for the people by the people and from the people.
13. Three main features of democracy are:
• the final decision making power must rest with those elected by the people.
• a democracy must be based on free and fair elections where those in power have a fair chance of losing.
• each adult must have one vote and each vote must have one value
14. Two steps taken by the Weimar Republic in 1923 to acquire political stability in Germany are:
i. It introduced a new currency called Rentenmark.
ii. It took up negotiation between Germany and the Allies for payment of separation dues and thus the French Army withdrew from the Ruhr region.
