Conclusion
Thus we would say that between dictatorships and democracy, neither option is the most perfect one. As we mentioned before that in todays world we have a combination of two or more forms of government. However the most important term for an individual, including us, is choice. To be able to choose and voice out your opinion and beliefs is extremely crucial which democracies provide and dictatorships curb. As the most famous dictator of our time Adolf Hitler said, If you tell a big enough lie and tell it frequently enough, it will be believed. Thus according to our research we feel that democratic government are better suited than dictatorial government.
