Answer:
Autocracies limit participation in government while democracies encourage it.
Explanation:
Autocracy is a form of political rule in which an individual or group of people exercises uncontrolled political power and is not subject to constitutional restrictions. Autocrats are accordingly referred to as sole or self-rulers who exercise power in a certain area and whose power is not restricted by anything or anyone.
In turn, democracy is a form of government in which the will of the people is the source of legitimate exercise of power. In a democracy, the entire population is sovereign and all authority is based on the (at least theoretical) consent of the people. This form of government is based on the human ideal of equality.
