What is the usa a democracy or republic?

A democratic Republic. People often say the USA is not a Democracy because the constitution provides protection for the minority. 51% cannot take away certain rights of the other 49%.

In a Direct Democracy, that would be the case. (Two wolves and a sheep voting what's for dinner). The USA is not a Direct Democracy.

But when people use the word Democracy, they usually mean a country with free and fair elections, so according to that definition, the USA is a Democracy. Of course the form of government is a Republic, the head of state is a president, elected by the people, and not a monarch. Democracy is not a form of government.

For instance, the United Kingdom is a Constitutional Monarchy, with a monarch as head of state, but it is also a democracy because there are free and fair elections and the people decide the de facto leaders. So the USA is both a Republic (form of government) and a representative democracy (free and fair elections).

It's a federal republic. Some states, California specifically, would be considered more democracy because they allow laws to be passed by the people through ballot initiatives. A political system where people vote is popularly called democracy even if the technical definition isn't quite right.

Just about every US president, not just Obama, has referred to American democracy, mainly because talking about republicanism doesn't have quite the same ring to it. The Cold War was billed as democracy vs. communism, not federal republicanism vs communism.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
