Penjelasan
In pre-colonial West Africa, some governance systems exhibited democratic features due to their internal mechanisms of checks and balances. These mechanisms ensured that power was not concentrated in the hands of a single individual or group. Instead, various institutions or councils had specific roles and powers that balanced each other.
