Dictatorship

Prior to 2008, Bhutan was an Absolute Monarchy (which is an absolute dictatorship). Currently, Bhutan is not a dictatorship, but a Constitutional Monarchy, with an elected Parliament and a Prime Minister and the King being an important Head of State.

They have no similarities because they no role in selecting when it comes to dictators and monarchies. The citizens can't choose!

Catherine the Great

There were no Russian "dictators". The closest was Tsar Nickolas II followed by Iosef/Joseph Stalin.

He uses secret police to eliminate any opposition.

Oliver Cromwell. His official title was Lord Protector of England, Scotland and Ireland.

Saudi Arabia is not run by Dictatorship,

it's Ruled By a king and a cabinet of minsters that the king is the prime minister

The Saudi people have no peaceful and constitutional means of changing their government. The king has absolute powers and is accountable to nobody. He passes on power to members of his family. So yes, Saudi Arabia is indeed a dictatorship.

Aristocracy is a small group of people who are perceived as superior to the common citizenry by virtue of wealth or nobility or rule of the best. The word "aristocracy" is derived from the Greek root aristos, meaning best, noblest, or most virtuous.

Large numbers of Republican supporters and other ideological opponents were rounded up and executed after the Spanish Civil War - as many as 400,000 in the estimates of some historians.

So many were killed that Franco's government had to take over the bullrings to carry out the executions (the sand in them was good at absorbing the blood of those killed).

Concentration camps,forced labour,heavy prison sentences and some death penalties were used throughout Franco's 36 year dictatorship to deal with those who opposed him and his politics.

He is a dictator. The Belgian population hates him.

No

François Duvalier and Jean-Claude Duvalier ruled Haiti between 1957 and 1987. (François Duvalier from 1957-1971, Jean-Claude Duvalier from 1971-1986)

Julius Caesar did not make himself dictator for life. The Senate, at that time, in Rome, made Julius Caesar dictator for life.

Saddam Hussein, what rock have you been living under?

Adolf Hitler was the Fuhrer, or absolute dictator, of Germany from 1933-1945, a period called the Third Reich.

no they were not

The third riech- I'm pretty sure

They're not. Not by anyone who is credible in the fields of history or political science at least.

Hitler and the Nazis were fascists, not socialist. These two political ideologies are polar opposites in the political spectrum.

Mussolini's black shirts and secret police informed on everyone and enforced his rule. Opponents were often arrested, or pubilcly humiliated as examples to scare others into line

A very point to make here on this question is the fact that Mussolini ran a dictatorship government. He rose to power to become the first fascist country. That being said, it's clear as the first contributor said, he was able to control all opposition.

In WW II the three Axis powers, and the dictators who ruled them, were:

Germany, ruled by Adolf Hitler

Italy, ruled by Benito Mussolini, and

Japan, ruled by Hideki Tojo (who was acting theoretically on behalf of Emperor Hirohito).

No. Mussolini was a Fascist Dictator.

Technically, no. A dictatorship is when one leader makes all decisions without the consent of others. The soviet union was totalitarian, even though they controled lives they still had a representative government
