If we look at the history some countries got maximum development in Dictator ship while some got maximum development in democratic government. Every system has it's own flaws and benefits. What do you like ? if we talk about the welfare of general people.
I still prefer democracy over dictatorship. Democratic government has more advantages like you have the freedom to do things you want that are according to law of course. Likewise, you can express yourself freely and go anywhere you want. Democracy is for the people, by the people and of the people. The dicisions of the government leaders still rely on the people.
