See Transwiki:Republic, if there is anything to merge into here. --SimonP 16:06, 16 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

I don't think there is anything useful there for this entry, however it could problably be used to create Appendix:List of republics? --Connel MacKenzie 21:31, 16 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

You are right, Connel . The page Simon was saying is deleted. 173.178.93.250 22:16, 15 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

Search for Republic In the Macmillan Dictionary. It is better for kids like me. 173.178.93.250 22:20, 15 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

I know another definition for Republic. [ A country that is ruled by a president or other leader that people vote for ;rather than a king or queen. 173.178.93.250 22:24, 15 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

That's our first definition, we have two, are there others that we lack (probably, yes). --Mglovesfun (talk) 22:36, 15 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

Comment[edit]

  • I don't think a "republic" should be defined in terms of sovereignty. There are multiple interpretations as to the nature of sovereignty and if applied to the word "republic" could lead to conflicting meanings. I recommend replacing number 1 with following:
republic - describes a form of government which is not a monarchy, is kingless, and has no hereditary nobility. -- 47.145.171.223 16:36, 9 March 2018 (UTC) -- Calif.DonTracy (talk) 22:41, 15 March 2018 (UTC)Reply
