Well . . .
We declared war on Great Britain in 1812.
For that matter, the Indian Nations (Creek, Cherokee, Choctaw, Seminole and Chickasaw) declared war on the United States in 1861 -- and at the time all had democratically elected governments. In at least two of those cases (Choctaw and Cherokee) the declaration followed a plebicite on the issue which was wone by the hawks.

We declared war on Great Britain in 1812. But Great Britain was a Monarchy at that point

LOL.... There's history fouling up a perfectly good point of view again.
