Some have claimed that no true democracies ever go to war with each other. In fact, does history bear that claim out? If so, try to explain how democracy exerts such an effect.
Answers
Answer:
The democratic peace theory posits that democracies are hesitant to engage in armed conflict with other identified democracies.[a] Among proponents of the democratic peace theory, several factors are held as motivating peace between democratic states:
★Democratic leaders are forced to accept responsibility for war losses to a voting public
★Publicly accountable state's people are inclined to establish diplomatic institutions for resolving international tensions
★Democracies are not inclined to view countries with adjacent policy and governing doctrine as hostile
★Democracies tend to possess greater public wealth than other states, and therefore eschew war to preserve infrastructure and resources.

Answer:
yes , it's true and this statement is fact based that never have any true democracies been in a war. Even in today's time , if you watch news , you will be able to understand this correctly. North Korea (under Kim Jong Un ) is an example dictator ship
and they are constantly at odds with other countries and sometimes war like situations are formed. China has tried to start a war with India , and if you have read the example in class 9 ncert book , you will very well remember that China is not a democracy in true sense. So not is Pakistan , who has also tried to start war with India. Two democracies have never been against each other in a war.
This is mainly because democracy functions on mutuality and trust. Two democratic countries try to establish trust and good relations amongst themselves rather than engaging in wars. They think more about the people and their welfare , rather than thinking about themselves and their respect. They establish good relations with all other democratic countries on the basis of economic growth , import, export , etc.
