1. Military Dictator

2. Ordinary /Elected /Democratic Dictator

3. Tribal Dictator

4. Lame Duck Dictator

5. Exiled Dictators of the type usually found in USA/West ???

military dic: self explanatory

ord dic: where some one get elected un opposed because no one will dare oppose them.

    Military Dictator, OK give you that one.

    Ordinary/Elected/ Democratic Dictator - that's a politician!

    Tribal Dictator - this would be a chief of the tribe a guess? How does he get to his position?

    Lame Duck Dictator - then who is the power behind the dictator, who dictates to the dictator

    Exiled Dictator - if exiled he is no longer a dictator.

    So in reality you only have one real dictator in the whole list - being the first military Dictator.

    Lame Duck, because he has nothing to lose and can get things done without having to worry about politics.
