Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely… Join us as we explore history’s most bizarre and brutal authoritarian regimes! From leaders who claimed to descend from heaven to those who banned glasses and the word "intellectual," these dictatorships went beyond mere oppression to reach truly absurd levels of control, personality cults, and human rights violations. Our countdown includes Turkmenistan’s bizarre bans, North Korea’s "eternal president," Gaddafi’s Revolutionary Nuns, Idi Amin’s claim to Scotland, and dictators who believed in voodoo, feared witchcraft, and served human flesh to ambassadors. Which regime do you find most disturbing? Let us know in the comments below!
