This is gonna have a lot of hashes.

These types of government are on this list for the following reason:

1) They do not benefit people more than government
2) They do not keep a stable society
3) They do not work in a country for more than a century at most
4) They do not establish basic rights
5) They do not create a stable economy (three main types of economy are capitalism, socialism, and communism. Yes, communism is also a type of government but it is based on the economy that bears its namesake.)

Aristocratic/Despotic attributes:

- Timocracy (Socrates first defined it as a government for the higher class.)
- Oligarchy (Last major oligarchy was in Apar#########th Africa.)
- Plutocracy (A type of a weak democracy where all elected officials are wealthy and the top class.)

Autocractic/socio-economic attributes:

- Fascism (No need for an explanation.)
- Communism (The government controls everything and owns everything. This system is realstically only a short-term government.)
- Absolute Monarchies (Kings and queens exercise the authority of government.)
- Welfare state (The strictest type of government in terms of equality. All people have the same jobs, wealth, opportunity, etc.)

Authoritarian attributes:

- Authoritarian (System controlled by unelected leaders. Last authoritarian governments include the Austrian-Hungary Empire and the Ottoman Empire.)
- Totalitarian (Highly centralised government that regulates everything. Fascism is a weaker form of totalitarianism.)

Democratic attributes:

- Direct democracy (People continuously write laws and actions, leaving no real government in place.)
- Totalitarian democracy (People have little to no partipication in the government and its decisions.)

Oligarchic attributes:

- Startocracy (Military rule not to be confused with nationalism, it is completely controlled by the military. The Sparta city-state is the most well known to exist.)
- Theocracy (Almost all of the times leads to wars and purges, aka Crusades.)

Other attributes/governments not used:

- Banana republic (Kleptocratic (corrupt) government that economically depends upon the exports of a limited resource)
- Bankocracy (Ruled by the big banks.)
- Corporatocracy (Ruled by corporations. Only major use was in India.)
- Anocracy (Countries that are not autocratic or democratic, aka countries with no definite form of government. Not to be confused with anarchies.)
- Anarchy (No comments required.)
- Adhocracy (Government based on disorganized principles, opposite to a bureaucracy.)

There are many more that could be included but these are the most important types that countries have used and ended up in failure.

Most countries in the world today are electoral democracies. This was not the same one century ago. Government changes very quickly.

There's also a government that was created as a joke called Kakistocracy, literally meaning rule by the stupid.

I think it would be great if some countries had more direct democracy (not all the way there), and held more referendums because the way it is right now, we choose between the corrupts and the very corrupts.

- Representative democracy
- Demarchy
- Direct democracy
- Electorcracy
- Liberal democracy
- Social democracy
- Totalitarian democracy
- Federalism

"I think it would be great if some countries had more direct democracy (not all the way there), and held more referendums because the way it is right now, we choose between the corrupts and the very corrupts."

Sadly, unlike the Ancient Greeks, people are not very imformed on issues and more than likely certain laws that would destroy a country would be passed. Not all people who would vote on laws directly can be trusted.

Referendums do indeed originate from direct democracies (specifically Ancient Greece) and are also helpful in represenative democracies and federalism.

"You forgot socialism"

Socialism, as a government, works better than communism but it still fails.

BUT, in socio-economics, socialism can work if you mix capitalism and communism in the right mixture.

If you make it where the people have their own businesses with products they sell and the government providing free resources like roads, electricity, and other items, you can make a socialistic government to work.

The only problem with the government providing resources is that it kills competition for that resource, so it gets very inefficient. So this should be limited. It also limits economic liberty because you can't spend money on whatever you want.

True. Capitalism works better than socialism in all cases. Socialism is very hard to make perfect.

Fascism can work, however the governments that have used it in the past had the wrong ideals and did not know how to properly better their people.

It works for a short amount of time.

True. Fascism and communism is only a short time type of government.

For example:

The Soviet Union really didn't form until 1922 and it ended in 1991.
The Spanish State lasted from 1937 to 1971.

These types of governments don't last long. They can become powerful but they will collapse soon.

"Kleptocracy"

Ah, yes. I mentioned this in the list and in a reply but when you have corrupt leaders like the mafia in charge, then yeah.
