Basic Government Systems/Republic

Republics are a form of democracy where people elect representatives to power.

In republics, the people do not vote on all matters, but the people who they elected do.

Republics come in many forms, such as ones with one representative as the head of government, ones with legislatures like a parliament or a Senate, or ones with a combination of the two.
