Answer:
There are 5 types of government
- Monarchy - Rule of one. Traditionally a king or emperor, but in modern times this usually describes a dictator.
- Oligarchy - Rule of the few. Traditionally, this described a group of aristocrats, men of noble blood, but it just as easily describes a group of warlords or a military junta.
- Theocracy - Technically, rule by God. In practice, since God rarely shows up to manage the day-to-day affairs of government, this involves rule by a religious leader or group of religious officials who interpret God's will. The country of Iran has many aspects of a theocratic state.
- Authoritarianism - Monopoly of political power by an individual or small group that otherwise allows people to go about their private lives as they wish.
- Totalitarianism - Rule by an elite that exercises unlimited power over individuals in all aspects of life.
