Aristotle classified six forms of political constitution: tyranny, monarchy, oligarchy, aristocracy, democracy and finally, polity
A totalitarian dictatorship is not one of Aristotle's classifications of government.
Monarchy, aristocracy, and constitutional rule.
For Aristotle, it was necessary to acknowledge that all forms of government were imperfect including democracy. He believed that the best form of constitutional government was one in which the leader had the best interest of the people especially of those people who were in need.

Aristotle
Aristotle believed that a mixed form of government, where power was shared between a monarchy, aristocracy, and democracy, was the best form of government. He argued that this balance would prevent the corruption and abuse of power that could arise in pure forms of government.
Aristotle.
Aristotle identifies three legitimate types of government: monarchy (rule by one), aristocracy (rule by a few), and polity (rule by the many), which he considers a form of constitutional government. Each of these can devolve into their corrupt forms: tyranny (the corrupted form of monarchy), oligarchy (the corrupted form of aristocracy), and democracy (the corrupted form of polity). Aristotle emphasizes the importance of the common good in distinguishing between the legitimate and corrupt forms of government.
Aristotle believed that monarchy, aristocracy, and democracy were equally good forms of government. He also felt each form could be easily corrupted. Aristotle wanted to combine all three types of government to create a limited democracy.
Aristotle was the first who analysed various types of government. He classified the various types of constitutions of the Greek city-states in his Politics.
Aristotle classified three styles of government and six types of rulers. The first classification is a tyranny or a monarchy. The second classification is an aristocracy or an oligarchy. The last classification contains both a polity or a democracy.
