If you'd like to read a fantastic and absolutely terrible book about a total autocracy, consider checking out Court of the Red Tsar by Simon Sebag-Montefiore. I've read it three times -- I found it exceptionally well-written.

Also hi! How have you been?

Hi there! Nice to see you over here.

Reporting for duty!
