Answer:
Democracy gives a lot more power to the common people in a country than any other system. Before democracy was in place only the highest social class such as the nobility and the monarchs would dictate the lives of people whether they liked it or not and only with a revolution and change of the ruler would people have some power. In a democracy, we can choose who rules and which policies to support and which go against our interests. A voter has a lot more power to shape a country than in a country with no democracy.
