Answer:

The correct answer is D: Fascism, Nazism, and Communism.

Explanation:

Shortly after World War II, the word totalitarianism was used to describe regimes of government ruled by a single party, with total control of the military, economy, education, means of communication, with extremely high measures of control over public and private life. In this type of government, one person or party exercises absolute control over all spheres of life, while opposing political parties are strictly prohibited.

- Germany under Adolf Hitler (1933 – 1945) - Nazism

- the Soviet Union under Joseph Stalin (1924 – 1953) - Communism

Which idea protects the country from tyranny by making government officials and institutions accountable to the law?Select one:

s2008m [1.1K]

The rule of law protects countries from tyranny and ensures that government officials/institutions are held accountable. The rule of law is a concept that the laws should run the nation, not the decisions of an individual ruler. In this system, all people are supposed to be treated equally under the law, regardless of wealth, occupation, past experiences, etc. In this type of system, government officials who break the law would be held responsible by the courts and would have to go through the exact same processes as other American citizens. This system can be accurately summed up by the idea that "no one is above the law."
