Tommy lives in a country with a government under:

Representative democracy as its a government system.

Explanation:

The reasons behind this answer are that in the first place only democracies provide the right to choose their leaders to the citizens. Now, there are different types of democracies, however, the two major types of them are direct democracy, representative democracies. Direct democracy is the democracy in which the citizens rule and take the decisions voting directly in each one of them. While representative democracies are the ones in which the decision making processes fall into the judgment of the representatives the people have chosen to lead them. The rule for a certain period and people have also the power to replace them if needed.
