No, I would not want a despot to rule our country. Despotism often leads to the suppression of individual freedoms, lack of accountability, and violation of human rights. A democratic system, where leaders are chosen by the people and held accountable, fosters a more just and equitable society. It encourages participation, protects liberties, and allows for diverse perspectives to shape governance.
A ruler who wields power oppressively; a tyrant.
Enlightened despots applied Enlightenment ideas to the government
A despot.
The correct spelling is "despotism" (rule by a despot, or tyrannical ruler).
The word "tyrannize" (to rule as a dictator, tyrant, or despot) has 2 N's.
Supposedly an enlightened despot was a monarch who tried to adapt modern ideas into their rule. But, the term enlightened despot is highly contradictory because enlightened indicated modernization of ideas and change, whereas despot carries the denotation of clinging to tradition and the past. So, essentially the monarchs called themselves enlightened despots to gain public appeal, but they were not enlightened despots- it's impossible to be one. That's be like being a carnivorous vegetarian; laughably impossible.
rule his country , like a dictator .. he has all power the type of government would be a monarchy
At least 13% of the population would not be free and unable to vote.
The term "autocratic" refers to a type of leadership style. An "autocrat" is similar to a "despot" in that they both rule with absolute power.
