[VIDEO] As you may know, Mr. Beat is a social studies teacher or at least he was until he decided to do YouTube full-time. And for me as a political science major this is up my alley. Every type of government from democracies, republics, monarchies, autocracies, presidential democracies, direct democracies, parliamentary democracies, etc.
Mr. Beat presents this almost 20 minute video with David from the YouTube channel World of Antiquity to discuss the types of governments with a few historical aspects of those types. A lot of what we know about republics, democracy, or even dictatorship has a basis in ancient Greece or Rome. So these terms we've heard thrown around has a basis over thousands of years old or perhaps for those of you who are religious before the Christian era.
Here's a question. Do you think of America as a democracy or as a republic?
