Description:
A republic is a form of government rooted in the principle of popular sovereignty, with the power of government residing with the people. <br/><br/> Republics are representative democracies, where citizens elect individuals to make decisions and create laws on their behalf, making sure that all citizens are subject to the rule of law.<br/><br/>Ancient Rome was the most enduring republic (509 - 27 BCE) until Octavian became Emperor, ending its nearly 500-year run.Modern republics provide legal equality among citizens, civil rights and liberties while establishing a constitutional framework for the government to operate.<br/><br/>The United States Constitution (1788) features a separation of powers, dividing authority between the judicial, legislative and executive branches to ensure that no single branch can dominate the other.
