republicbased

republicbased is a term that describes a political system or ideology centered around the principles of a republic. A republic is a form of government where the country is considered a "public matter," not the private concern or property of the rulers. In a republic, supreme power is held by the people and their elected representatives, and which has an elected or nominated president rather than a monarch.

The core tenets often associated with republicbased thinking include popular sovereignty, the rule of law, and the separation of powers. Popular sovereignty means that the ultimate authority resides with the citizens. The rule of law dictates that all individuals, including those in power, are subject to and accountable under the law. Separation of powers typically involves dividing governmental authority among different branches, such as the legislative, executive, and judicial, to prevent any one branch from becoming too powerful.

Ideologies that are republicbased often emphasize civic virtue, where citizens are expected to participate actively in their governance and prioritize the common good over personal interests. While the term can be broad, it generally distinguishes itself from monarchies, autocracies, and other forms of government where power is concentrated or inherited. The specific implementation and interpretation of republicbased principles can vary significantly across different nations and historical periods.
