Oh, democracy followers... Always struggling to possess democracy! But in this case, we just need the singular possessive form. So it's actually "democracy's." See, even democracy can't escape the 's!
To determine the possessive form of the word "democracy" in the sentence, "Would democracy followers win the struggle?", we need to identify who or what possesses or owns the followers.
In this case, it is not democracy itself that possesses the followers, but rather multiple democracies. Therefore, the correct possessive form would be "democracies'."
To form the possessive of a plural noun ending in "s," you simply add an apostrophe at the end.
