In fact, governments name their countries whatever they want to. That's why North Korea's official name is Democratic People's Republic of Korea. It makes for much better public relations than a more accurately descriptive title would.
One of the three branches of government (Communist Party, People's Liberation Army, and National Congress) in the PR China is elected--the National Congress. The National Congress works like a parliamentary body, so at least part of their government officially works like a republic. To qualify for membership in the NC, one must be a communist party member.

For the same reason we call it the Internal Revenue SERVICE. Essentially to confuse its subjects (victims).
A democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch. A republic is a sheep who owns an AK47.
