'''Representative democracy''' is the type of [[democracy]] used in [[nations]] too large to have a [[direct democracy]] like [[Switzerland]]'s. Representative democracies can be found in many countries, such as [[Canada]], the [[United Kingdom]], and the [[United States]]. In a representative democracy, "representatives" (such as [[Members of Parliament]] or [[Senators]]) are elected by voters to "represent" them in the political process.
