  3. A republic is a state or country that is not led by a monarch,[1][2] in which the people (or at least a part of its people)[3] have an impact on its government.[4][5] The word 'republic' is derived from the Latin phrase res publica which can be translated as "public affairs".

  5. A.D stands for Anno Domini. The meaning is a political system in which the supreme power lies in a body of citizens who can elect people to represent them. The word spoil can be used when you want to describe something that affects morality, perfection or taste.
