What is democracy?

Democracy is when people get to choose who will make decisions for them, just like picking your favorite ice cream flavor.

Imagine you and your friends are going on a picnic, and you all want different snacks. Instead of letting one person decide what everyone eats, you all vote on which snack to have. That’s democracy in action!

In democracy, people vote, like raising hands or putting a sticker on their favorite choice. The person with the most votes becomes the leader, just like how your friend becomes the "picnic boss" if they get the most votes for their snack idea.

Democracy isn’t just about voting once in a while. It means people can share their ideas and even change who is in charge, just like you can switch sides if you no longer want the same snack. This way, everyone has a say, and things stay fair. Democracy is when people get to choose who will make decisions for them, just like picking your favorite ice cream flavor.
