Question: Where were the democracies around the year 1900!?
Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
I believe the US was the only true democracy beside British dominions in Canada, Australia and New Zealand although there was discrimination towards who could voteWww@QuestionHome@Com

depends on your definition of a democracy!.!.!.!. most 'democracies' of that time didn't allow women the vote!.!.!. so you could question how democratic they were

Edit
Jerry don't get me started on the lack of true representation in modern 'democracies' !.!.!.!.lolWww@QuestionHome@Com

mostly North AMerica and Europe maybe

And if by the above poster's definition of democracy i guess that the united states right now is not a democracy seeing as how a large percentage of the population can not vote because of their lack of citizenship Www@QuestionHome@Com
