U.S. Government Explained Ep. 01 - What Type of Government is the U.S.?

Is the United States a democracy… or a republic? You’ve probably heard people debate this before, but the answer is more connected than you might think. In this first episode of US Government Explained, we explore the foundations of the American political system, what makes it a representative democracy, and how the Constitution defines the U.S. as a republic “for the people, by the people, and of the people.” We’ll also look at how this structure compares to other democracies around the world and what it really means for citizens today.
