This. He was heavy handed but what do you expect when you're trying to keep a lid on such a volatile nation
>Blahyi also purported that during that period he had "magical powers that made him invisible" and a "special power" to capture a town singlehandedly, then call in his troops afterwards to "clean up". Some of Blahyi's soldiers--often boys in their early teens and younger--would enter battle naked; others would wear women's clothes.

In the mid-1960s, Oman had one hospital. Its infant mortality rate was 75% and life expectancy was around 55 years. There were just three primary schools – which the sultan frequently threatened to close – and no secondary schools. The result of this was that just 5% of the population could read and write. There were no telephones or any other infrastructure, other than a series of ancient water channels. The sultan banned any object that he considered decadent, which meant that Omanis were prevented from possessing radios, from riding bicycles, from playing football, from wearing sunglasses, shoes or trousers, and from using electric pumps in their wells.
Oman was the last country on earth where slavery remained legal. The sultan owned around 500 slaves. An estimated 150 of them were women, whom he kept at his palace at Salalah; a number of his male slaves were said to have been physically deformed by the cruelties they had suffered.
>During his presidency, his country was nicknamed "the Dachau of Africa".[4] More than a third of Equatorial Guinea's population fled to other countries to escape his brutal reign.[5] He was known to order entire families and villages executed.
>The president's paranoid actions included killing all who wore spectacles,[6] banning use of the word "intellectual" and destroying boats to stop his people fleeing from his rule[1] (fishing was banned).[7] The only road out of the country on the mainland was also mined.[8] He Africanized his name to Masie Nguema Biyogo Ñegue Ndong in 1976 after demanding that the rest of the Equatoguinean population replace their Hispanic names with African names. He also banned Western medicines, stating that they were un-African.[8]
>Macías Nguema was the centre of an extreme cult of personality, perhaps fueled by his consumption of copious amounts of bhang[2] and iboga,[1] and assigned himself titles such as the "Unique Miracle" and "Grand Master of Education, Science, and Culture". The island of Fernando Pó had its name Africanized after him to Masie Ngueme Biyogo Island; upon his overthrow in 1979, its name was again changed to Bioko. The capital, Santa Isabel, had its name changed to Malabo. In 1978, he changed the national motto to "There is no other God than Macías Nguema".[9]
>During Macías Nguema's regime, the country had neither a development plan nor an accounting system for government funds. After killing the governor of the Central Bank, he carried everything that remained in the national treasury to his house in a rural village.[2] During Christmas 1975 he ordered about 150 of his opponents killed. Soldiers dressed up in Santa Claus costumes murdered them by shooting at the football stadium in Malabo, while amplifiers were playing Mary Hopkin's "Those Were the Days".[10]
>Idi Amin
What the fuck did you say about him, you little bitch?
Call him:
His Excellency, President for Life, Field Marshal Al Hadji Doctor Idi Amin Dada, VC, DSO, MC, Lord of All the Beasts of the Earth and Fishes of the Seas and Conqueror of the British Empire in Africa in General and Uganda in Particular
If you don't know him personally you twat.
>The island of Fernando Pó
I had no idea that was a real island, I thought they made it up for the book.
BENITO MUSSOLINI
un-ironic, by the way
In aesthetic he's the most supervillain-tier leader ever (most likely an inspiration). In actions, while no saint, probably the least evil dude posted so far.
Reagan
yeah, I think he reinstated the death penalty but I don't think it was ever applied. He either tortured or sent his political opponents to remote islands
I don't think Clinton is evil, I think she honestly doesn't believe that laws and practices don't apply to her like they do to other people. She thinks she's the sun queen of the American left, which is why she was so fucked up after they chose obongo in 2008
>I think she honestly doesn't believe that laws and practices don't apply to her like they do to other people
YOU DON'T THINK THAT MAKES HER EVIL?
>Soldiers dressed up in Santa Claus costumes murdered them by shooting at the football stadium in Malabo, while amplifiers were playing Mary Hopkin's "Those Were the Days".[10]
good music tho
Turks
maybe François "Papa Doc" Duvalier
>While recovering, Duvalier left power in the hands of Clément Barbot, leader of the Tonton Macoute. Upon his return to work, Duvalier accused Barbot of trying to supplant him as president and had him imprisoned. In April 1963, Barbot was released and began plotting to remove Duvalier from office by kidnapping his children. The plot failed and Duvalier subsequently ordered a nationwide search for Barbot and his fellow conspirators. During the search, Duvalier was told that Barbot had transformed himself into a black dog, which prompted Duvalier to order that all black dogs in Haiti be put to death. The Tonton Macoute captured then killed Barbot in July 1963. In other incidents, Duvalier ordered the head of an executed rebel packed in ice and brought to him so he could commune with the dead man’s spirit. Peepholes were carved into the walls of the interrogation chambers, through which Duvalier watched Haitian detainees being tortured and submerged in baths of sulfuric acid; sometimes, he was in the room during the tortures.
