Dystopia

Dystopia refers to a fictional society that is characterized by extreme suffering, oppression, or a downfall of civilization, often portrayed in literature, film, and other media. In these narratives, aspects like totalitarian governments, environmental disaster, or technological control create a world where individual freedoms are severely limited, and life is marked by hardship. Dystopian stories serve as warnings about current societal issues and explore themes of power, morality, and the consequences of human actions, prompting reflection on what could go wrong if negative trends continue unchecked.
