Similarly to democracy, the concept of totalitarianism has existed for millenia. We can say, in fact, that it has been used much more than democracy, especially during the 'Dark ages' in Europe, where every absolute ruler was trying to convince the masses that they are far better off beneath his rule than not.. Developing Totalitarianism enables the Fascism Government, the second type of modern government available. It again makes obsolete many old Policies, and replaces them with new Economic, Military and Diplomatic ones.

abstract
| - Similarly to democracy, the concept of totalitarianism has existed for millenia. We can say, in fact, that it has been used much more than democracy, especially during the 'Dark ages' in Europe, where every absolute ruler was trying to convince the masses that they are far better off beneath his rule than not.. But Ideology brings a new life to the concept, justifying it 'scientifically'. A Totalitarian system, where most, or at least the most important aspects of the government machine and economy are under centralized control, is able to make far-reaching plans, take swift decisions, have a unified vision and implement it. The cost is 'small' - you just need to give up your freedom of speech, and desist making any political decisions. Developing Totalitarianism enables the Fascism Government, the second type of modern government available. It again makes obsolete many old Policies, and replaces them with new Economic, Military and Diplomatic ones.
