"ranked by how big the proportion of the population that considers their country to be democratic"

(from the quiz description)

I, too, was extremely incredulous until I went back up and read that, at which point everything made complete sense.

The Chinese people largely do consider their country to be democratic, based on several things I've read in the past. (Owing, largely, to a different conception of what "democratic" means.)

Which really makes the title of the quiz misleading. Rather than "Most Democratic Countries," perhaps "Countries Who Most Believe They Are Democratic?"

Comical

Now this is the most inaccurate and ridiculous quiz I've seen in a while. I'd suggest removing it.

Perceptions of democracy is very interesting. But your title is very misleading and I'd doubt that political surveys in authoritarian states like China are as reliable as those in democracies.

And who determines which of those countries are authoritarian or democratic? Should we perhaps ask the people living there?

Really interesting quiz, thanks for sharing.

I'm sure 100% of North Koreans consider North Korea a democracy

Based on the top two answers, the key to a good democracy is a state run by a single Marxist-Leninist Party. I knew it!
