#3 Democracy versus Islam? Over the centuries, people have tried a wide variety of governments. For the last two centuries, the most successful system has been democracy. During the twentieth century, a large number of countries converted to some form of democracy. I can't think of one country that has kept an older system, that has prospered. Japan is a good example of a country that has grown immeasurabily richer, more powerful, and less militant among it's neighbors by changing within a generation to democracy. Countries that cling to an eighth century system for organizing and maintaining people is doomed. The more efficient and productive system will evenually win out - every time.
