A 'tyrant' in ancient times meant a lord who was the sole holder of all power, executive and otherwise. He might - if he was so inclined - give his people all kind of rights, like the right to freely travel, to trade, to have and transfer their personal fortunes, to organize themselves in guilds etcetera.
Although the word 'tyrant' today is meant as a negative epithet, often meaning an oppressive ruler, out to suppress his people's freedoms and to fill his prisons with people who disagree with his rule, the original only indicated the scope of his powers - and an ancient tyrant could at the same time be a benevolent ruler.

Under democracy, the citizenry are free and enjoy all their basic human rights. The downside though, is that the decision making machinery is slow. The different types of democracy are direct, indirect and elite democracy. The types of dictatorship are Communism, monarchy, oligarchy and fascism.
