'Republic' is about whether or not you have kings. Democracy is as opposed to autocracy, with a few other *cracys between those poles.

America is a democratic republic; the United Kingdom is a democratic monarchy. The US has a broken democratic system that does a really bad job of electing the most preferred candidate. It's almost cheeky to call America democratic.
