Didn't Germany have 3 dictatorships in the 20th century? East Germany (ended in 1990), Third Reich (ended in 1945), German Monarchy (ended in 1918)

  I'm not used to people calling monarchies dictatorships, even though they are in some ways similar. Until 1918, many states in Europe were monarchies.

    Calling Saudi Arabia a dictatorship is unfamiliar to you?
    • Tainnor 2y ago
      Yes. And in any case, that wasn't the point. I haven't seen anybody refer to pre-WWI European monarchies as "dictatorships".

        Right. Funny way to point out treaty of Darin as a breaking point.
        • Tainnor 2y ago
          No idea what your point is. The German empire wasn't a dictatorship, if you want to claim otherwise, find me a credible source that says so.
