<h3>What is Democracy</h3>

Democracy is a form of government where the people have the freedom of coming together to decide legislation and in areas where they are unable to do so, they may delegate individuals to help them out.

Democracy was defined by president Abraham Lincoln as the government of the people, by the people and for the people.

This definition by President Lincoln illustrates that in a democratic setting, the people hold absolute power in deciding their leader.

This also means that the people are in the center of the government because the government is run by their elected representatives.
