It looks like Berlin is a democracy

roastpotatothief to Democracy: A democratically run community. · 3 years ago

Reading this, there seems to be a democratic process in Berlin’s governance. That’s great, I had no idea.

Other democracies I know about:

switzerland
california
debatably ROI

Are there others?

Any thoughts about the differences between them, if one system works better than another?
