Answer 2

Explanation:

A democracy is essentially a system of government in which people exercise their power directly and have the right to elect members of government who collectively create a government body for the whole country. The two main types are -

1. Direct - A direct democracy is when citizens can vote directly for a law, without any intermediary legislative members or chambers. If a law or rule is to be enacted by the government, it goes to the people. We vote on the matter and decide their own country's destiny.

2. Indirect - Indirect democracy or the representative democracy is when people choose to vote for who in a parliament will represent them. This is the world's most popular form of democracy. This takes advantage of labour division: a small group of members can use their policy-making skills, allowing everyone else to perform other tasks
