This paper will explore the dimensions of federalism and democracy, in which it will become apparent, that the two are intertwined. As will be explored, federalism enhances the principles of democracy by creating accountable governments, increasing political participation, and protects against the tyranny of the majority. Federalism enhances democracy and thus, goes hand in hand.
