Question: Which country has, throughout History, set an example !?
Of what Democracy is !?!?!? Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Great Britain has certainly got a claim to this title!. Apart from having the oldest democracy in the world it was also the first to move away from the 'divine right of kings' and make national decisions as a body rather than on the whims of a single ruler!. Apart from 10 years of rule by Cromwell as the 'lord protector' Britain has never had a dictatorship or been ruled by the military!. Certainly from the civil war onwards Parliament and not the Monarchy where the only true decision makers for the nation!. Before the civil war the Kings and Queens of England could and would make decisions without Parliaments approval but from the Tudors onwards this became increasingly difficult without Parliament supporting it!. When compared to other countries from this period Great Britain could and should be considered Democratic!.

not switzerland they were buying aircraft quality ball bearings from america in the 10 of thousands and never built anything more than a coko clock the crates were marked made in USA sent to a swiss company and still with the markings on them outside mercedes benz and Mershersmitt factories and stole from the Jews swss bank managers told nazis about deposits made by Jews and when the NAZIS murdered them shared the proceeds

England has overall set a good example because the Empire is now the Commonwealth of Nations

Norway when the Nazis said all jews must wear the yellow star and the next day the king came out wearing the Yellow star

and of course Australia when the Mother country was in trouble one of the first to support her without asking for Payment even when supplying england with 303 Rifles after DunkirkWww@QuestionHome@Com
