no, not every democracy. every government performs those roles but they are not all split the same way. the nordic countries are single-branch and he chinese government has many more than three.
According to this official government page Norway at least does have separation of powers into multiple branches. I haven’t looked into the other nordic countries, but it’s hard to believe that they don’t at least separate out the judiciary (courts) from the rest.

1 branch = old system.
The 3 branches are there to counterbalance the powers… theoretically.
And China is something different.
the nordic systems are based on popular sovereignty by proportional representation, which lies in opposition to separation of power.
