Which 11 countries were democratic in 1941? One reason they might not be including Canada, is that while we kept our normal government the term seems to have been extended; en.wikipedia.org/wiki/19th_Canadian_Parliament shows May 16, 1940 until April 16, 1945, which is over the normal 4 year term. |

Which 11 countries were democratic in 1941? @txwikinger But it is questionable whether Canada was a country prior to gaining political independence. Either way, it should be on the list for the 1940s. |

Which 11 countries were democratic in 1941? @txwikinger Canada didn't gain full control of its affairs until after WWI. The exact date is fuzzy, and a standard high school essay question, but as of WWI we did not have any control of foreign affairs, and thus were automatically drawn into the first world war. By WWII we had, and thus waited for a debate in our own parliament to occur before entering. |
