Republic
From Wikivex - The Free, Online, Vexillium Encyclopedia
A republic can be defined in many different ways. One of the more common definitions is simply "a country which is not a monarchy". Another definition says that a republic is "a country where sovereignty rests with the people or the nation, rather than with the ruler". A third definition stresses the importance of laws and constitutions, defining a republic as "a country governed on the basis of laws rather than the wishes of individuals, where everyone is equally subject to the law". Some simply define a republic as being a democracy. There are many other definitions of the word, and what one person considers to be a republic, another person may not.
