  1. authoritarian state

    An authoritarian state is a system of government where power is held by a single authority or leader who exercises centralized and unchallenged power. This system restricts individual freedoms, controls most aspects of public and private life, and often suppresses political dissent. While maintaining stability and order, authoritarian states often disregard aspects of democracy, human rights, and rule of law. Decisions are made by the authority figure without consultation with other entities or the public.
