What to Focus On

  • A state has four parts: territory, population, government, and sovereignty.
  • Sovereignty means complete control over internal matters.
  • Government is part of the state, not the whole state.

  • Democracy means rule by the people.
  • Republic means the head of state is elected, not hereditary.
  • A country can be both democratic and republican.

  • Majority rule must not destroy minority rights.
  • Law protects citizens and communities.
  • Rights and justice are essential in a republic.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
