The main difference between a democracy and a dictatorship is the figure on which power rests. In fact, both are usually considered opposite poles in terms of their form of government. Within a democracy, the citizens' vote is used to choose their representatives, as well as their ideals and interests. Theoretically, in a “pure” democracy the majority is not limited in any way and should always be able to impose itself over the minority.

As for dictatorships, this is a form of government in which power is focused on one person, the dictator. In a dictatorship there are no democratic elections, divisions of power, or how the opposition can legitimately come to power. This type of government is usually for life, that is, it does not have a maximum, minimum or specific duration, it lasts until the death of the dictator.
