Totalitarianism

Totalitarianism  is a hyper-authoritarian ideology that believes that believe opposition parties should be banned, the state should permeate all facets of society, and that society must be run for the state by the state. He despises Democracy and civil liberties, and believes dissent should be harshly punished. He is a more extreme form of Authoritarianism, and is usually very  nationalistic, although not always.

History
Totalitarianism has been around since antiquity. Examples include Sparta where state controlled the way of life for lower and upper classes. More modern examples include Edo period Japan.

Leaders and whose regimes have commonly been regarded as being totalitarian include Adolf Hitler in  Germany,  Vladimir Lenin and  Joseph Stalin in the  Soviet Union,  Benito Mussolini in  Italy,  Mao Zedong in  China,  Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant,  Pol Pot in  Kampuchea (Cambodia),  Taliban in Afghanistan,  Kim Il-sung, Kim Jong-il and Kim Jong-un in  North Korea, and  Saudi Arabia.

Other examples include Ne Win in  Burma (Myanmar),  Qin Shi Huang in the Qin Dynasty, and more recently,  Saparmurat Niyazov and Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedow in  Turkmenistan.

The origins of modern Totalitarianism as an ideology are debated. Philosopher Karl Popper believed its roots lie in the Hegelian conception of the state, and even more so in the theories of Karl Marx, while philosophers Theodor W. Adorno and Max Horkheimer of the  Frankfurt School argued it is rooted in the  Enlightenment.

The term "totalitarianism" had its first recorded use in the early 20th century.

Personality and Behavior
Totalitarianism is a dictator and loves the works of Hegel. He often goes on about his love for Hegel and is one of the few ideologies that can read Hegel and understand what he's saying.
