    Answer: the importance of a balance of powers is essential in a democracy and it is key for the functioning of it. When this principle is violated for any reason, democracy is weakened and purposes and objectives of a nation become obscure.

    Demos kratos literally means "people power." The United States government is built on an idea of a democracy where people have power-but citizens do not actually vote on every issue. Rather, they elect people (representatives) who vote on matters for them. This is different than the direct democracy of Athens.
