Which term describes a system where people elect leaders to govern on their behalf?
Correct Answer:
Democracy
Explanation:
Democracy is the system in which people elect leaders to govern on their behalf. Through elections, citizens choose representatives who make laws and run the government, with accountability to the people. This setup ensures political power comes from the governed and can be removed at elections. A dictatorship describes rule by a single leader or small group without such elections. A domino effect is a chain reaction, not a government form, and the Dust Bowl was an environmental disaster, not a political system.
