Sample Entry

**Democracy**

Democracy is a system of government in which all or most of the adult population is involved in the decision-making process. There are many different forms of democracy, but they all share some common features, such as free and fair elections, freedom of speech and assembly, and the rule of law.

Democracy is often seen as the best way to ensure that the government is responsive to the needs of the people. However, democracy can be difficult to achieve and maintain, especially in countries with a long history of authoritarianism.

In Southeast Asia, there are a number of countries that have made progress towards democracy in recent years. However, there are still a number of challenges to democracy in the region, such as corruption, poverty, and ethnic conflict.
