CEVAP:

Although the government of the United States provides elements of direct democracy, mostly it demonstrates a republic form of government. Citizens participate in direct elections for their legislative leadership, but it is this representative leadership that determines the form and process of central government. A principle element of democracy in the United States is the separation of powers among the three different branches (areas): legislative, executive, and judicial. The power in each of these branches is explained in a constitution. This creates a strong central government that represents the interests of individual citizens and the local governments of each of the member states.
