Totalitarianism is a political system characterized by the absolute dominance of a person or political party over a nation. Within totalitarianism, the person or political party in power controls all aspects of public and private life through an openly authoritarian government.
Totalitarianism is also marked by the strong presence of militarism in society and is accompanied by actions by the regime with the aim of promoting its ideology through a system of indoctrination of the population.
