Question

"Tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress". Put this sentence in your own words and explain what it means to you.​

Answer 1

Tyranny is a kind of regime in which a person takes power, the tyrant, either by force or by fraud. Thus, tyrants exercise authoritarian governments over their citizens, usually violent, curtailing people's rights and freedoms and guaranteeing impunity and almost total authority over them and over all spheres of the State.

Tyrants exercise such violence according to the level of resistance that citizens put up: thus, the greater resistance or antipathy on the part of the people, the greater the level of oppression that the ruler exercises.
