Simplified meaning
When people don’t care about what’s happening in their country, it can cause big problems for democracy. For example, if most people choose not to vote because they think their voice doesn’t matter, the leaders who get elected might not really represent everyone’s needs or wishes. This can lead to unfair laws or policies that don’t benefit the majority. Democracy works best when everyone is involved, sharing their opinions, and voting. So, showing interest and taking part in the democratic process helps make sure the government listens to and serves its people effectively.
