Step-by-step explanation:

Democracy can be defined as a government of the people, by the people and for the people.

There are two (2) main types of democracy and these include;

I. Representative democracy: it's also known as indirect democracy and can be defined as a form of government which typically involves the process of having the citizens of a particular country vote to elect representatives (political leaders) to enact laws, create policies and make decisions on their behalf.

II. Direct democracy: it can be defined as a process which typically involves the candidates voting for their preferred choice. Thus, their choices are reflected directly on the subject matter.

In the United States of America, the eighteen (18) year old citizens were the last to receive their right to vote. This right was established by the 26th Amendment of the Constitution of the United States of America.

The 26th Amendment was proposed by the US Congress on the 23rd of March, 1971 and ratified on the 1st of July, 1971 by three-fourths of the states to become part of the Constitution of the United States of America.
