    Xi Jing of China and Napoleon

    Xi Jinping is the leader of the communist party of China, to the outer world he is seen as a dictatorship even if the call themselves democratic. The Communist party of China is very limited with its seat of its council (Politburo Standing Committee) and has less competition, the CCP have a monopoly on China political power. This state of government is similar to what Napoleon had he had no competition for his power and had supreme rule. I see both of them as dictators which they were, but both of them have the good and the bad. First we need to know what is a dictator, a person exercising absolute power. To me, Napoleon was still a good dictator he had not just given France military victory he created university and gave education, but also he took away power and rights away from women. Xi Jinping, he tried to take away corruption in China and hoped to make it successful, all though he gave basic democracy to people from the village he didn’t do much else and people lost the right of freedom of speech. He also didn’t care much about China’s education system unlike Napoleon. I still think even if some dictatorship have the good and the bad most people still want democracy its more fair that way but still the communist party still had much support like Napoleon rule. They Both were also the sons of political leaders and I think this has to do a lot of how the were influenced by politics and why they want to rule. Both of these dictators had much failures both of them exercised their power and miss used it which led with Napoleon losing his support and Xi Jinping ruining his economy. To me Napoleon was a better ruler he cared more about his subject and still exercised his power to help people.

    Napoleon bonaprte compared to Pierre Nkurnziza the president of Burundi, there are not al ot of similar things. One of the similar things are that they both fought in war’s. Pierre Nkurunziza is more educated than Napoleon.Pierre Nkurniza is still president scince 2005.He was really closed to getting killed by the Tut SI army in a shootout. With Napeloen he was way diiferent. His father died in 1785. Napeoleon was changing so many things. Napoleon was taking over contries with war’s. Napeoleon also crowned himself emperor. He was destroying contries he was like changing al of Europe. The similarities between these two are that they are emporos basically. Napeoleon was empror of france and and Pierre Nkurniza is president of Burundi. There aren’t many simialrities betwwen these two. Napeoleon was changing the world and Pierre Nkurunziza is president of Burundi

    Dictators are rulers wielding absolute power no one could rival.Society views dictators as ruthless and inhumane people using their power for their own desires rather than for the good of the people.Although some dictators are more than bad such as the current president of Cuba, Raul Castro.He became acting president 18 months early when his brother was incapacitated by ill health.He executed his brother Fidel Castro orders and enemies ruthlessly, but he eased some restrictions on personal freedom just like Napoleon who fought for the people and their freedom.Raul Castro was viewed as a good minister by the people. The people seemed to have grown attached to Raul Castro and his motives.His way of running the country with an iron fist might be harsh,but his countrymen respects him,his laws and his authorities of running their country. He also puts his people first for example when there was an economic crisis he substantially cut the size of the army to provide some rations for his nation.In my personal opinion dictators are suitable rulers, but democracy is the best form of government although it has flaws and problems, our active participation could counter all of this flaws.
