Democracy is a pretty vague term, the liberal western democracy is culture-fitted I think and that's why cultures who still value tribal\extended family formation as a source for social behavior fail to create functioning democracies. Nepotism is the enemy for a fuctioning democracy, it inevitably leads to over-curroption and so on.

As an example, I personally think the emphasis on family relations led to the collapse of Arabic secular attempts at democracy and plagues the functionablity of political regimes to this day.
