Description
Democracy is an intelligent and sophisticated game that entertains people, but also teaches them a thing or two about politics as well. You may think that politics is all sticking to your principles no matter what, but in Democracy you'll quickly see just how easy it is to "compromise" those principles to keep you seat in government.
Democracy starts with you in the seat of the President (or Prime Minister) of a modern country. The country is run as a simple democracy where you need to get over 50% of the vote in each election in order to remain in power. The object of the game is to stay in power as long as possible, as there are no limits to the number of terms you may serve. As the game progresses, you influence the voters and the country by putting policies into place. Different voting groups will have very different and often conflicting views as to which policies are desirable.
