Democracy is derived from the Greek words demos which mean people and kratos which mean rule, suggesting that the democracy is the form of the government which had the rule of the people. The U.S. democracy is said to have been inspired from the ancient Greece where the Rule of Law was practiced, written Constitution was in its place, voting system was in practice and the city-state community structure of polis was in place.
