Featured Article: Dictatorship

Benito Mussolini in the March on Rome that installed him as dictator in Italy
A dictatorship is an authoritarian or totalitarian form of government which is characterized by a leader, or a group of leaders, which holds governmental powers with few to no limitations on them. Politics in a dictatorship are controlled by the leader (dictator) and facilitated through an inner circle of elites that include advisers, generals, and other high-ranking officials. The dictator maintains control by influencing and appeasing the inner circle while repressing any opposition. Dictatorships can be formed by a military coup or by elected leaders making their rule permanent. Dictatorships can be classified as military dictatorships, one-party dictatorships, personalist dictatorships, or absolute monarchies.

Popular Article: Evil

Sendan Kendatsuba banishing evil in one of the five paintings of Extermination of Evil
Evil is a term used to describe something that brings about harmful, painful, and unpleasant effects. It is understood to be of three kinds: Moral evil, natural evil, and metaphysical evil. Moral evil is intentionally originate by human beings through their cruel, vicious, and unjust thoughts and actions, like murder. Natural evil occurs independently of human thoughts and actions, but still causes pain and suffering, and it refers to earthquakes, volcanos, storms, droughts, disease, and so on. "Metaphysical evil" refers to the finite and limited condition of the created spatio-temporal world, thus usually being understood not to be evil in and of itself.
