I'm sorry, but I'm debating the accuracy of the name 'Zormite Republic'. I'm not sure what you hoped to accomplish by providing me with an example of another inaccurate name.

We're a republic. Specifically, we are a representative democracy. This is a type of democracy, but it is not pure democracy. People who call it a pure democracy do not really understand how our government works and sound quite foolish.

Well, they most certainly can, if they want to sound as foolish as the folks I mentioned earlier.

You should try talking to the leaders of the country if you wish to continue to support your ideas.

I somehow don't think that a letter from the president would convince you folks if reason and logic can't.
