172 Words1 Pages
In history before, leaders have tried to create a totalitarian government. It has continued to fail every time. It was stated in the book, 1984, how similar the Nazis and communism were to Big Brother. Hitler tried to have a totalitarian government, but it failed. He was power hungry, everything he did was to gain more power. He put the jewish people in camps so they would not interfere with his power. Hitler controlled his people by the fear he put in them, which made them obey. None of his “prisoners” were happy. They were starved, worked like slaves, and had also been taken away from their families at times. Joseph Stalin also tried to create a totalitarian government. He changed a poor society into a military and industrial superpower.
