They're not.
The current https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democracy_Index https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democracy_Index lists 22 "full democracies", 64 "flawed democracies" and 24 "hybrid regimes".
- drran 6y ago22+64 = 86 86/167 = 51.5% Majority of countries are democracies.
- dependenttypes 6y ago86 < 100 less than 100 states are democracies Whether they are a majority or not is irrelevant to what lazyjones said.
- drran 6y agoHybrid regimes are defined as "Hybrid regimes are nations with regular electoral frauds, preventing them from being fair and free democracies.", so they ARE democracies with regular electoral frauds. 86 + 24 = 110 > 100 More than 100 states are democracies.
