Detailed Solution

People are 'sovereign' in a democratic form of government.
The word sovereign means "seated above". It can be concluded that the ruler is thus the supreme authority and does not require permission from others to do something. In the modern world, states are sovereign entities because they are free to do anything within their borders without taking permission from the outside world. However, the state derives its legitimacy from its people, who grant it the authority to make rules for them. Thus, the people are above the state.
