Forms of democracy have changed greatly over time

The word democracy is originally derived from the Greek word demokratia, from demos - "the people" and kratia - "power or rule".

Democracy is a form of government involving the equal participation by eligible citizens in the legislative process through voting, by one person, one ballot. One of its fundamental principles is majority rule, because consensus is not always achievable. Other basic principles include equality and the rule of law.

It started as direct democracy, evolving into representative democracy when mass direct voting became too cumbersome. After centuries of refinement, elections have become the most interesting feature of representative democracy. It is safe to say that all sovereign states operating under elected government today are representative democracies. Their legal and electoral systems tend to differ according to local conditions. It is impossible to imagine how these democracies would respond to bold categorization by the opposition camp in Hong Kong without a universally accepted standard.
