In 2007 the United Nations General Assembly decided to observe September 15 as the International Day of Democracy—with the purpose of promoting and upholding the principles of democracy. Democracy means government by the people or people's power. A fundamental idea behind democracy is that the citizens or residents in a country should have the opportunity to exercise political influence, for example, by means of regular elections.

The Nordic Statistics database

Nordic Statistics is a collection of comparative Nordic statistics which has existed and been funded by the Nordic Council of Ministers since the mid-1960s. The Nordic Statistics database contains about two hundred matrices. 

The data is gathered from the Nordic Statistical Institutes (NSIs), the Nomesco-Nososco committees, other Nordic statistics producers as well as international sources such as Eurostat, OECD and the UN. For more details read here.
