Detailed Solution

The two Greek words ‘demos’ and ‘kratia’ stand for ‘People’ and ‘government’.
The word "Democracy" is derived from the Greek words  'demos' meaning 'people', and 'kratia', meaning 'to rule'. Thus democracy means 'rule by the people'. Most support democracy against alternatives such as monarchy, theocracy, or military leadership. People feel that democracy is a better form of government because it encourages equality among citizens, enhances the dignity of individuals, and improves the quality of decision-making. Moreover, people's fascination for democracy often makes them think that democracy can solve all socio-economic and political problems.
