  Democracy has spread because people consider it to be the best form of government. By the 18th and 19th centuries, the right to vote was granted to more and more people. Most of the factors of spread of democracy are related to the social, economic and political conditions internal to that country. People who suffer from socio-political inequalities struggle for the establishment of democracy in their countries. They hope only democracy can give them rights and freedom. In addition recently some powerful countries like the USA have taken the task to promote democracy to non-democratic countries. But this is not the right way for the establishment of democracy. The demand for democracy must come from within the country itself.
