Those who live in countries where people can vote for political candidates peacefully must notice how they are blessed.
Even in 21st century, there are a lot of countries where elections are not taken place or elections are not taken place fairly or peacefully.
Thailand is the last case. Intense conflict between people in countryside and urbanized area causes turmoil like bearing the military junta.
I can't come up with how to grow democracy in those countries and whether or not democracy is really suitable for them.
