In a totalitarian government everything belongs to the government your land, your car even the very air you breath belongs to the government. Every decision from citizens daily lives to international affairs are controlled and decided on entirely by the government, of which would consist of a all powerful dictator/king and a close group of his second-in-commands that carried out his orders.

Answer: The availability heuristic
Explanation: It is a phenomenon that can occur or be exploited as it is in this case, and is related to decision making. When making decisions, certain thoughts or images may emerge that will encourage a certain decision. As we make an important decision, many similar events or situations can spill over to the surface of our consciousness, and at that moment, encourage us to make exactly the decision we have made. That is why the availability heuristic is in fact a mental shortcut that facilitates decision making, because when making a decision, images and associations appear to us that are most similar to our situation at the time of making the decision.
It can, of course, be used, as in this case, when we want to encourage someone to make the decision that suits us, so at moment of his / her decision we remind them of the very pictures and situations that will, for example, help and encourage someone to buy expensive a homeowners insurance policy if s/he sees hurricane pictures and the like.
