Answer 2

Hi there!

✨ What is Democracy?

Democracy, literally, rule by the people.

The term is derived from the Greek dēmokratiā, which was coined from dēmos (people) and kratos (rule) in the middle of the 5th century BCE to denote the political systems then existing in some Greek city-states.

✨ What is Dictatorship?

A Dictatorship is a form of government characterized by the absolute rule of one person or a very small group of people who hold all political power.

While a dictatorship is a form of government in some nations, just as monarchy or representative democracy is the form of government in others,
dictatorships are seen by non-dictatorships as dangerous and cruel because of the way they tend to treat their citizens.


Cheers!
