I would establish a socialist polity, then abdicate.
would I have to stay a dictator? because I’d be instilling a democracy ASAP
The benevolent, uncorrupt, good thing for dictators to do is to abdicate.
I would be completely stressed out, like people would wanna kill me and stuff for being a dictator, so I’d just renounce, run away and get a new identity (not sure how one “gets” a new identity though). Also, managing a country by myself? Too hard, what orders am I even meant to give?
Absolutley. No more questions!
For a couple months, maybe. Anyone who says yes absolutely is someone who shouldn’t be trusted with power.
I’d last six hours before becoming Caligula
But I know I can be the best dictator ever! 😉
What’s that? You disagree? Sounds like I need to send some of my people to your house to educate you on what I’m doing until you can until you can understand that its for the greater good 🤗
(you may not refuse my mandatory education program, I’ll be watch you 👀)
-Sincerely,
Your best friend and dictator
🥰
Yea! I can’t get corrupted or turn evil if I already start out corrupt and evil!
I know I can cause I’d really rather not be a dictator. I take responsibility for EVERYONE all the fuckong time trying to care for that many and feeling the pain and guilt if I fail even one will fuck me up and I’d rather just not do it. Only in extreme times like rn would I even consider it but I’ll probably off my self when the reign ends cause I let some kid die because I didn’t get healthcare to them fast enough. I’m a softie.
Yes. But I’d probably be killed by someone who will
Sure. Would I last long before getting killed or overthrown? No.
Yes because I will immediately work on making a sustainable democracy, eventually having checks and balances
Yep.
I actually want to see these cultures change.
It is inevitable that an opposition would form against you. You either let the movement continue to gain traction and risk unseating you or you use your power in a corrupt manner to silence them.
In this particular case, it depends what you define as corrupt. If you are truly working towards the betterment of everyone under your power (even those that you are fighting against), then what becomes justifiable to that end?
Not if you preemptively make what would be an opposition ideology illegal when making the country’s constitution
They often get killed faster than the evil ones.
Well, I’ve managed to win every election legitimately in Tropico 5 so far while making sure there’s plenty of housing, education, jobs, food, and healthcare.
So guess so.
