democratic republics

no government lasts

@campodin all republics are democratic

republic refers to a representative democracy

@L0GAN how about we elect staff and staff elect consul

sounds good

eh

that would be more like parliament tho

no, republic is a mixed state by definition

a state in which supreme ***power is held by the people and their elected representatives***, and which has an elected or nominated president rather than a monarch.

Rome was better as an Empire

Senate became so corrupt

like every fucking republic

the us is different

our politics arent very extreme

and depend on centrist voters

@L0GAN each side likes to pit other side as extremists

Both are very moderate though

Republics are clown shows

That get nothing done and just bitch over who is right and wrong

(but then again its not like they have any interest in their politics other than personal gain)

And then leaving it up to people to vote which is a horrible idea

I feel like the reason democrats want illegal immigrants is the cheap labor that isnt the governments problem to fix

@☦Default™#1027

Did he leave

Ha

@L0GAN you are using are modern bastardization of the term republican. Originally it was meant to describe the mixed government.

Mixed government (or a mixed constitution) is a form of government that combines elements of democracy (polity), aristocracy and monarchy, making impossible their respective degenerations which are conceived as anarchy, oligarchy and tyranny.[1] The idea was popularized during classical antiquity in order to describe the stability, the innovation and the success of the republic as a form of government developed under the Roman constitution.

@campodin you said by definition

no definition of republic is mixed gov

It is a mixed government by definition

no

every single republic is a mixed government

thats a way to interpret it

but your doing this

"a republic has elected officials and an appointed or elected leader- a republic is a mixed gov- a mixed gov can be non democratic"

CAN BE

republics are always democratic

republics always have democratic elements

The term republic was first coined c. 500 BCE in Rome, but over time the term has undergone several changes in meaning. Initially the Latin term res publica signified the earlier "partial form of democracy" as found in Rome from c. 500 BCE until c. 27 BCE. In this early Roman partial-democracy, the power of the aristocratic or patrician class who held all of the seats in the Roman Senate, was checked by the institution of the consulship, whose two consul/vice-rulers were elected annually by the free citizens or plebes of Rome. The ancient Roman definition of the word differs from the modern use of the term, where no leadership positions are held to be restricted to only the "ruling class".[10][11]

in the case of appointed leader that refrences a parliamentary system
