Just an FYI. Maybe what you write is not what you mean, but most countries are not a Democracy. France is not a Democracy. It is a Republic which is consistent with most governments in the world, other than most of the Middle East, China, etc. There is a big difference between a Republic and a Democracy.
God am I slow: The People's Republic of China (PRC) and the Syrian Arab Republic. Should have pointed that out before.

Or even better: The Islamic Republic of Iran.
