AI overview
A military dictatorship is a system of government in which the military holds absolute power and controls all aspects of the state, typically led by a military leader or group of officers rather than elected officials. It matters because such governments often restrict personal freedoms, eliminate democratic processes, and can have significant impacts on citizens' lives and a nation's international relations.
