In Summary


  • The higher the index, the more democratic a country is.
  • Mauritius was the only country with a full democracy according to the index.

For four consecutive years, Kenya's democracy index has lagged behind Tanzania's, primarily due to poor scores in the electoral process and pluralism, civil liberties, and the functioning of government.

Mauritius was the only country with a full democracy according to the index.
