(This famous order was given by Colonel William Prescott at the Battle of Bunker Hill on June 17, 1775)

As the British army marched on Bunker Hill, the American militia lured them closer… and closer… and closer… by not doing a thing. It would be like playing dead while a giant black bear sniffed at you, and then stabbing it in the eye at the last second.  

This maneuver took nerves of steel, nerves that trickled down from Colonel William Prescott to his men. It was Colonel Prescott who gave the order, "Don't fire until you see the whites of their eyes!"  

Once they got close enough, the Americans fired, decimating the British troops.

Easier Explanation: William Prescott shouted: "Don't fire until you see the whites of their eyes" explaining to the men that they had limited ammunition, and they needed to make every shot count.

What type of government system allows one person to wield ultimate authority over a country and its people?
OverLord2011 [107]

The type of system of government allows a person to exercise maximum authority over a country and its people is the dictatorial system

the dictatorial system can be defined as an authoritarian political regime maintained by violence of an exceptional and illegitimate nature. It can be led by a person or a group that imposes its project of government on society with the help of force.

These governance systems tend to be fairly centralized. Power is extremely concentrated in the hands of the person or group that governs the state, with little or no openness to political debate. The spaces of communication and deliberation are usually tightly regulated or suppressed. This includes the press, the legislature and judiciary, and political parties, which are often forbidden to exist.
