A democracy is that which allows for unlimited majority to rule, but absolutely provides no basis for the protection of individual or minority rights.A republic allows there to be a democratic process of voting, but through a constitution imposes controls on the majority to allow for individual or minority rights. - Bashar
民主制使无限多的人来管理成为可能,但是它完全没有提供保护个人或少数群体的权利的基础。共和制允许有民主的投票过程,但是通过宪法来对多数人实施管理,以保护个人或少数群体的权利。- 巴夏
