Totalitarian Rule

Totalitarian rule is a form of government where a single leader or ruling party has almost complete control over all aspects of life, including politics, economy, media, and personal freedoms. It often involves heavy censorship, propaganda, and suppression of dissent to maintain power. Citizens have little to no political rights or freedom to oppose the government. The state seeks to shape every aspect of individual and societal life, often using fear and surveillance to ensure conformity and loyalty. Examples include totalitarian regimes like Nazi Germany and Stalinist Soviet Union.
