Totalitarian governments have emerged in several countries throughout history, most notably in the early to mid-20th century. Examples include the Soviet Union under Joseph Stalin, Nazi Germany under Adolf Hitler, and Fascist Italy under Benito Mussolini. Additionally, regimes like those in North Korea under Kim Il-sung and more recently in Cuba under Fidel Castro also exemplify totalitarian rule. These governments typically centralized power, suppressed dissent, and aimed for complete control over various aspects of life.
