Explanation:

A parliamentary democracy is one where the executive government is controlled by the party that has the largest representation in the nation's legislative branch, the Parliament.

To be a parliamentary democracy therefore, an executive leader would have to be chosen from the legislature by the members of the party in the majority. This ensures that the legislature and the executive work closer together. Countries like Britain and Israel are parliamentary democracies.
