According to the Cambridge and Merriam-Webster dictionaries, a person who takes power by force and rules with total authority is a dictator. A dictator is not elected by the people, and extends his powers into the private lives of the people. He usually enjoys a cult of personality throughout the nation. An example of dictator would be Hitler in Germany between 1933 and 1945.
You should bear in mind that there are two other words which could fit this definiton, with some nuance:
- if this ruler uses its unlimited power unfairly and/or cruelly, it is a tyrant;
- if this ruler came to power through elections which he rigged, and simply rules without any political opposition, it is an autocrat.

The two elements of the United States’s legal system that can be traced to Roman law is "a trial by a jury of one’s peers and double jeopardy."
This is evident in the fact that in the Roman republic, the trial by a jury of one's peers is well established whereby citizens are judged by their fellow citizens rather than the Emperor or King.
Also, double jeopardy is established in roman law that a person declared acquittal by a judge in a criminal case is exempted from further proceedings under the same charges.
