    Popular sovereignty is the idea that people should rule over themselves and that any people who have more power (presidents, prime ministers) only do so as representatives of the people and with the consent of the people.

    It's important because it ensures that people can express their needs and organize their country to cater to those needs and not to only cater to the needs of the elite or one ruler.
