He was said to have amassed billions of dollars in government funds for his and his family's personal use, until he was ousted in February 1986 after a bloodless coup d'etat, called the "Edsa Revolution".

Answer 8

A dictatorship is a autocratic form of government in which the government is ruled by a dictator. It has two possible meanings:

Roman dictator was a political office of the Roman Republic. Roman dictators were allocated absolute power during times of emergency. Their power was neither arbitrary or unaccountable, however, being subject to law and requiring retrospective justification. There were no such dictatorships after the beginning of the 2nd century BCE, and later dictators such as Sulla and the Roman Emperors exercised power much more personally and arbitrarily.
In contemporary usage, dictatorship refers to an autocratic form of absolute rule by leadership unrestricted by law, constitutions, or other social and political factors within the state.

[edit]
Interwar era
In the twentieth century dictatorship has been an essential pillar of single-party states, military regimes, and other authoritarian regimes.

In the era between the First World War and the Second World War, fascist regimes, such as Mussolini's Italy and Hitler's Germany, incorporated principles of dictatorship with a single-party state, mass mobilization and regimentation of social and economic activity, and arbitrary exercise of police terror by the regime. After 1922, Mussolini fashioned the prototype of the fascist dictatorship in Italy and was emulated in the 1930s by Adolf Hitler in Germany. Fascist dictatorships were dealt a destructive blow by the defeat of the Axis Powers in World War II.

Also during the interwar era, the Soviet Union fused single-party rule, mass mobilization, and police terror with dictatorship under Joseph Stalin which would expand to other far-left regimes in Asia.

[edit]
Postwar era
In the postwar era dictatorship became a frequent feature of military government, especially in Latin America, Asia, and Africa. In the case of many African or Asian former colonies, after achieving their independence in the postwar wave of decolonization, presidential regimes were gradually transformed into personal dictatorships. These regimes often proved unstable, with the personalization of power in the hands of the dictator and his associates making the political system uncertain by posing problems of succession.
