Sinossi

A dictator is a strong leader who holds complete control over the government of his country. Sometimes elected, a dictator often rules when the people would prefer a different leader or different form of government. Dictatorships have existed since ancient times, though many countries have succeeded in ridding themselves of their dictators, adopting democratic systems. With primary source documents and images, this illuminating history of dictatorships profiles Caesar, Napoleon, Hitler, Franco, and many others.
