Copernican Revolution and Democracy

To associate a 'Copernican revolution' with a transition primarily from Geocentrism to Heliocentrism distracts from a broader undermining to which it contributes.  As part of Medieval Theology, Geocentrism reinforces the hierarchical value systems of the era, e. g. Theocracies.  Hence, the repudiation of it helps destroy the authority of such political arrangements, leading, as history has demonstrated, to the predominance of Democracy.   Thus, the more accurate Astronomical analogue of these revolutionary political developments is a fundamental decentralization of the universe, advocated by Cusa and Bruno, notably, that provides the more general context for any Copernican re-centering.
