What is the difference between a republic and a democracy? even though most americans today would probably say the u. s. is a democracy, our founders sought to create more of a pure republic. why might they be suspicious of excess democracy during the 18th century? (this topic is a comparison of forms of government; it has nothing to do with political partiespast or present)

The republics are usually presidential or parliamentary. In the former it is the people who elect the president or head of state and in the latter it is the parliament who elects it. in some and in others the powers of the president are different. Examples of the first are in the US or in some republics of south america and the latter are found in Europe in countries such as Germany or Italy.

Democracy is about a mode of election of the rulers of a certain state. We have two modes of democratic exercise: direct or by representation.

i would think yes.

explanation:

because we have every natianlity in our country which makes us so diverse and unique. that's why in a lot of cities there are places like little italy, koreatown, chinatown.
