Fidel Castro was born on August 13, 1926. He's 79 years old, pushing 80 by August.\nGaddafi was born in 1942. He is 64 years.\nCastro came to power through a revolution in 1959 (now 47 years in power) while Gaddafi came to power through a coup in 1969 (he's been ruling for 37 years).\nBoth are the longest serving dictators in the world today.

In my opinion, no.  Those people have been ruled by force for thousands of years.  The strong man will always come in and take power.  Its just the way things are done there.  Perhaps we will establish democracy for a few years, perhaps a decade, but it will eventually revert to dictatorship.

It's commander in chief, not and chief... anyway, as they have said, a dictatorship is a country ruled by one person who seized power, as opposed to a monarchy, in which sole rule is passed down from person to person.\n\nThe following countries are currently considered to be under a dictatorship, though of course they wouldn't say so. Gabon, Libya, Equitorial Guinea, Angola, Egypt, Sudan, Tunisia, Chad, the Central African Republic, Mauritania, Cuba, Syria, Maldives, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Pakistan, Azerbaijan, Laos, Burma, North Korea, and Belarus.

Cuba is a dictatorship.  Fidel Castro is not a king, he is a dictator.

Robert Mugabe.\n\nHe has recently under fire for his abusive policies, yet is supported by the regionally strong South Africa and therefore has continued to hold power. Evidence of his election rigging and dispicable policies is rampant.
