In a tyranny, a ruler is typically chosen through force or coercion rather than democratic processes. The tyrant often seizes power through military strength, manipulation, or by eliminating rivals. Succession can also be hereditary, where power is passed within a ruling family, but the legitimacy of such succession is frequently maintained through oppression and control rather than popular support. Ultimately, the ruler's authority is reinforced by fear and the suppression of dissent.
