(The term encompasses a broader concept related to governance and civic entities.)
A form of government in which the head of state is not a monarch and where supreme power is held by the people and their elected representatives, or by an elected or nominated president, rather than by a king or queen. The term originates from the Latin 'res publica', meaning 'public thing', emphasizing that the state's affairs are the concern of the public or common good, rather than private property.
