You missed a huge one from Mussolini and Italy, definitely the greatest one compared to all other examples in this video. They ended slavery that was still legal in Abyssinia/Ethiopia during the start of their occupation in 1935.
@cannoliscards it is true, while Ethiopia is boasted about not being colonised by anyone in its history, it was the only place left in Africa with legal slavery, something that had largely ended with European control.
The only good dictator I can think of was Taiwan’s last dictator. He actually listened to the people and made the country a democracy and got re elected
That is what the definition of a dictator. An absolute iron grip leader elected through emergency to fix the nation and protects the people until service term ends or death before service term ends.
I would say Lee Kuan Yew of Singapore was pretty decent as well, albeit he was less of a dicator and more just an authoritarian leader of a illiberal democracy
@@t-rexnut3091nope, even he was a affectionate and loving to his wife and children. Mao Zedong strikes me as a particularly horrible dictator, and his mismanagement of the Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution, not to mention his own seeming total lack of empathy strike me as particularly horrible. If you take away the fact that he strengthened China as a nation, and improved relations with the west late in his rule, there isn't much that's redeeming about the man.
@@t-rexnut3091Lenin was another one who seems to me to have particularly lack of many redeeming qualities. Apart from getting Soviet Russia out of the First World War, overthrowing the provisional government (depending on whether you think that's a good thing), there's not much you can say that's good about the man. Gave improved rights to women and minorities within Russia...I guess? He loved his wife (in his own way), and he was genuinely sad they couldn't have children. And he loved cats. That's about it?

Unemployment went from 34% in 1933 Germany to basically 0% in early 1939, the GDP nearly doubled in the same years, inflation was stabilized very quickly after they took power, I can go on and on, not justifying any crimes, crimes are crimes, but this people where very capable and smart.
Yes, a lot of people note how the Nazis turned around the country after Germany's great depression. Then they plunged it back into the ground with endless war.
All that economic progression is literally the result of going into war. He didn’t really do that much as you put it. You ever heard the expression “during wartime unemployment is always 0%”

I feel like Gadaffi would've been a nice addition to this list. Despite the fact he had some dictatorial qualities, his rule saw Libya go from a backwards desert to (maybe) the only African country with First World standards of life. Pity his death wrecked Libya into the mess it is today.
Same can be said about Stalin too. While his rule killed millions from starvation, the money and resources were diverted to elevate the quality of life in the other parts of the country. There's a reason why industrialisation happened so fast there. I'm 99% sure China must have also done this, they were just better at hiding.
Stalin was mentioned in the video already. Many dictators tend to be a scummy bunch, but some of them have pretty noble beliefs and policies that see their country dragged out of mud (aka benevolent dictators) like Tito and Thomas Sankara of Burkina Faso to name a few unmentioned examples, Third Reich's policies and inventions that are applied by many today and there's a tendency for ex-commie nations to have high literacy. Even some of the worst regimes are able to achieve something noteworthy (Best Korea with almost unmatched literacy, ICBMs and their own operating system called Red Star OS, even if said OS just a Linux distro). And then you have appaling people whose regimes sound like a demented fanfic done by a misanthropic lunatic *cough* Saloth Sar *cough* .
Allowing Women, well, REQUIRING I should say, to go to school is also a positive that both Ghadaffi and Saddam did. Today Iraq still uses many parts of the 1970 Constitution which he wrote, which protects many rights of Women. While it's still not equality, it's better than what many of their neighbors have.
i think it's good that we remember the people in history responsible for so much evil very often had good intentions, and were people themselves, not single dimensional villains. a moustache-twirling villain is much easier to laugh off than a nuanced, powerful individual who truly believes in doing good through their horror.
And they concurred it themselves, there's something. The British screwed everyone and their mother over to get what they want. And afterwards they lie about it 😅 but since my country often was the nasty sidekick and made Britian in what it is today. I'm not judging. Wel maybe putting woman and children in camps to starve them to overcome your enemy wasn't that glorious but otherwise they handled dictatorship and suppressing people rather well.
Thank god someone with a fanbase that's actually willing to show the uncomfortable sides of history.

Well, but what about the other side of the coin. Elected leaders in democracy who did horrible things or wars. Like Winston Churchill with the Bengal Famine, the Presidents of the Vietnam War, the French presidents who exploited Nukes in French Polynesia or support neocolonialism in Africa, Obama in his interventions in the Middle East, the presidents of the American continent with the tribes indigenous, etc. Nobody talks about their crimes and their impact on the lives of thousands of innocent people just because they are "democratic"

Alot of cool building that would have been inspired by ancient greek/roman architecture. Also if Hitler heard about anyone polluting oceans, throwing plastics into the forest or about climate change. Anyone responsible would be sent to the camps for…you know what
Good is subjective. A hundred years from now, all our current leaders will be seen as evil because they did pollution. Genghis Khan is still seen as a national hero in Mongolia because death isn't taken as seriously in Asia as it is in Europe. Same goes for Ashoka in India, or Stalin in the Asian post-Soviet countries.
The description of Hitler as vegetarian is not really accurate. While he mostly ate as a vegetarian his avoidance of meat was not ideologically driven but because he had digestive issues. His own chef described preparing occasional meat dishes for him.
Singapore also. It’s a dictatorship which teaches its citizens rule of law and horizontal society in a very confusion traditional society (very hierarchical)
I always thought Nazism was interesting because in some ways you could almost call them the first Eco-Fascists. They also put general Environmental Laws in place, you couldn't just go and chop down a tree to build a house or use as firewood for example.

@@edi9892 He allowed Js to leave Germany for Palestine in the Haavara Agreement which was good since pretty much the entire Europe hated them and didn't want to take them in
@@pepperroni6252 In his case, it definitely was hypocritical, but noteworthy regardless. Soldiers reaching high positions and saving former comrades feels much better.
most dictators love their country that their actions, though we may say are evil, was because of their love for their country. Perhaps they were only evil in history because they were defeated and painted as so by the victors. But there's a dictator that is considered good because he was not defeated - and dictatorship with iron fist was necessary at that time - Lee Kuan Yew. Looks what his dictatorship accomplished for Singapore.
Yes, MANY dictators believed they were doing GOOD. Hitler believed he was building a "Thousand Year Reich," of peace, plenty, and technological advancement. Unfortunately, he ALSO adopted the principle, favored by far too many political leaders, that "the end justifies the means," and his glorious Utopia wouldn't include certain people, like Slavs & Jews. Even Pol Pot thought he was doing the right thing, by exterminating Cambodians he considered genetically defective. To find truly EVIL dictators, one must go to the deepest cesspools of the "Third World," for men like "Papa Doc" Duvalier, who had a dungeon in the basement of his National Palace, where he personally tortured prisoners, or the "Emperor" Bokasa, who beat to death two dozen school children, because they didn't like a school uniform his brother had designed.
My friends grandma used to say that Hitler built the autobahn where they lived close by. My friend argued that Hitler most unlikely built it himself while his grandma insisted that he was on the construction site. Years later I found a picture of him acutally setting the first stone at the nearest resting area alongside the autobahn.
Saddam Hussein not only eradicated illiteracy, he created the best health and education infrastructure in the Middle East, he made Iraq the richest country in the Arab world after Saudi Arabia in terms of GDP per capita. And even after the Gulf War he rebuilt the economy, keeping Iraq one of the most stable countries in the world. Unlike what democracy did...
Plus, he wrote a few novels, so he actually contributed to literary tradition. The first was a romance novel called "Zabibah and the King." No, I am not kidding.
Hitler in DnD: I vill play as a Druid. Elven, powerful, with a giant Hund as a mount. The bane of orcs, dwarves, humans, gnomes, kobolds, aaracockra....(list goes on for an hour), und did I mention gnomes? And jah, Lawful Gud. DM: Ok, I can accommodate like 99% of that.....good though? *schmeissers prepped* DM: ....."good" it is, then.
Primary purpose of the autobahn was to rapidly move troops between east and west. Same reason why Eisenhower later pushed the Interstate Highway System. Yeah, it was great for interstate commerce and tourism, but its actual purpose was the rapid movement of troops in the event of emergency (or war).
hunters often love animals and the environment the most out of anyone, believe it or not. I think it's because they spend the most time around animals and the environment and have the time to develop a deep appreciation for nature.
minor correction, but genghis khan created the larger land based empire in history, not the largest empire in history, the 'honour' of having the largest empire period belonged to the british empire
Genghis Khan or Mongols to be precise, they didn't just come to today's Hungary. They even came to the banks of Danube in today's Balkan peninsula. Meaning to say that they came to South - Eastern part of Europe. Also Yugoslavian president Josip Broz Tito did a lot after WWII. He also helped literacy of Yugoslav citizens. Also Yugoslav engineers did many good things in the world, and some structures in USA, USSR, Africa, and South America were built by the civil engineers from Yugoslavia. Here is one fun fact. USA once bought some jet planes such as Soko G-2, and couple of Soko G-4, since they loved that engineering achievements, and performances as well.
@@PurooRoy It's a suggestion of good persons what did they do. I wasn't thinking on evil dictators. Tito gave good things to Yugoslavian people, and also to world as well. Since almost whole world came to his funeral. I hope I have explained the things there.
@@PurooRoy You are welcome. You are quite right. Tito had mistakes, but he wasn't evil. Even Charlie Chaplin gave vote that Tito should have a Nobel prize.
The only thing close to good is making a drug legal (can't remember the name- which is why he is still leading Canada but soon hopefully we'll be free from that idiot) but ye-

Same goes for Ashoka in India, or Stalin in the Asian post-Soviet countries.
The description of Hitler as vegetarian is not really accurate. While he mostly ate as a vegetarian his avoidance of meat was not ideologically driven but because he had digestive issues. His own chef described preparing occasional meat dishes for him.
Vegs trying to avoid comparisons with Hitler:
Mitsi studios did a great video on 11 less evil facts about hitler
No way he casually said all of that you know he was laughing after recording that lol 0:49
That's an insult to animals
Well, nobody in real life is pure evil.
Refreshed the page and new vid 15 seconds ago
Hitler also pulled Germany out of the depression.
"Learning to Read With Stalin" sounds like a twisted children's show.
Singapore also. It’s a dictatorship which teaches its citizens rule of law and horizontal society in a very confusion traditional society (very hierarchical)
I always thought Nazism was interesting because in some ways you could almost call them the first Eco-Fascists. They also put general Environmental Laws in place, you couldn't just go and chop down a tree to build a house or use as firewood for example.
The environmentalist movement has long had such roots.
@luigimrlgaming9484 yah, it sorta makes sense now.
There was a dictator woman in our country called PM Sheikh Hasina, she made expressways, freeways, huge bridges, even though were permitted to be used only by the rich and the Sheikh Family, but now can be used by public after her downfall.
So basically... Eisenhower girl version
4:00 Ah, if ONLY such measures could be imposed upon individuals who post comments on UA-cam!
Hitler: torturing animals to death is now illegal.
Simple History: that’s anti-Semitic!
Everyone: 🤨
Literally this, they have to deliberately not mention what these practices are at 2:12
@@TheGreenTaco999 you're one google search away from what "kosher slaughter" is.
@@TheGreenTaco999yeah lmao even the animation they use implies that it was a way they cut the meat or something not the fact Jews have to drain all the blood from a animal before slaughtering it lmao
Well.. the jews do have a ritual where they "transfer their sins to a chicken so that the chicken will be punished by god instead of them" which is then grabbed by its feet and bashed to death against a wall while professing how they are "punishing a sinner" to trick god. "kapparot" I think they call it
@@screamingseal4805 Wtf rly? Disgusting people...
Very educational yet a question. Will there be a video About Josip Broz Tito? He was a dictator of Yugoslavia yet a good one. Will there be a video coming out about him anytime soon?
2:30 those are some cute wolfies :3
I wonder how many people quit watching after he was done taking about Hitler
3:15 chemical weapons? 😂
Halabja massacre
March 16, 1988
Read it might be usefull for u
Very interesting video
Surprised that in the Hitler segment that the anti-smoking campaign wasn't mentioned.
He because experience about smoking 🚬 are treated on humans may cause get cancer.
Hitler once at doctor to save his mother. Hitler take experience understand how 🚬 could be dangerous.
That why united states and United Kingdom catch up Germany known about tobacco made with ....."chemicals".
being treated worse than a lobster i crazy
1:35: that image is going to get misused
why? just wandering
right, gotta hide it from Peta
@FrostyLego22 don't over think it. He made a stupid comment to get likes.
@ oh

No good deed goes unpunished
That prolonged gap/pause for the Dic---tators 😂😂
Just another reason not to trust a vegetarian
I never knew of this, thanks Simple History but it doesn't escuse everything they've done.
I feel that calling Hitlers animal rights campaign as secretly anti-semetic is a bit of a stretch.
I find it also noteworthy, that they left out that he personally saved the life of a J!
(referring to his mother's doctor)
Quite a few high-ranking Ns saved some Js, mostly when it came to highly decorated veterans of WWI, as that's a question of honour.
@@edi9892 no no their hypocrisy is not something to celebrate
@@edi9892 He allowed Js to leave Germany for Palestine in the Haavara Agreement which was good since pretty much the entire Europe hated them and didn't want to take them in
@@pepperroni6252 In his case, it definitely was hypocritical, but noteworthy regardless. Soldiers reaching high positions and saving former comrades feels much better.
@qwerty-p6j another thing many don't mention... I find it sad that few teach what the actual original goals were and why they went full R tart.
The fact that this video is only 9 1/2 minutes long says it all.
most dictators love their country that their actions, though we may say are evil, was because of their love for their country.
Perhaps they were only evil in history because they were defeated and painted as so by the victors.
But there's a dictator that is considered good because he was not defeated - and dictatorship with iron fist was necessary at that time - Lee Kuan Yew. Looks what his dictatorship accomplished for Singapore.
Yes, MANY dictators believed they were doing GOOD. Hitler believed he was building a "Thousand Year Reich," of peace, plenty, and technological advancement. Unfortunately, he ALSO adopted the principle, favored by far too many political leaders, that "the end justifies the means," and his glorious Utopia wouldn't include certain people, like Slavs & Jews. Even Pol Pot thought he was doing the right thing, by exterminating Cambodians he considered genetically defective. To find truly EVIL dictators, one must go to the deepest cesspools of the "Third World," for men like "Papa Doc" Duvalier, who had a dungeon in the basement of his National Palace, where he personally tortured prisoners, or the "Emperor" Bokasa, who beat to death two dozen school children, because they didn't like a school uniform his brother had designed.
nah,. pretty sure Hilter and Stalin were objectively evil.
My friends grandma used to say that Hitler built the autobahn where they lived close by. My friend argued that Hitler most unlikely built it himself while his grandma insisted that he was on the construction site. Years later I found a picture of him acutally setting the first stone at the nearest resting area alongside the autobahn.
Saddam Hussein not only eradicated illiteracy, he created the best health and education infrastructure in the Middle East, he made Iraq the richest country in the Arab world after Saudi Arabia in terms of GDP per capita. And even after the Gulf War he rebuilt the economy, keeping Iraq one of the most stable countries in the world. Unlike what democracy did...
Weird to think that Iraq has (had?) a better health care system than the US...but then again, that's not saying much 😂😂😂😂
Plus, he wrote a few novels, so he actually contributed to literary tradition. The first was a romance novel called "Zabibah and the King." No, I am not kidding.
Hitler in DnD: I vill play as a Druid. Elven, powerful, with a giant Hund as a mount. The bane of orcs, dwarves, humans, gnomes, kobolds, aaracockra....(list goes on for an hour), und did I mention gnomes? And jah, Lawful Gud.
DM: Ok, I can accommodate like 99% of that.....good though?
*schmeissers prepped*
DM: ....."good" it is, then.
Grade A comment
Imagine being a Jew in Germany in 1940 and knowing that a fricking lobster has better rights then you
livin like larry
Primary purpose of the autobahn was to rapidly move troops between east and west. Same reason why Eisenhower later pushed the Interstate Highway System. Yeah, it was great for interstate commerce and tourism, but its actual purpose was the rapid movement of troops in the event of emergency (or war).
Would Napoleon count as one of these dictators?
Yes or oui
@@adamhauskins6407come on now he wasn't evil.
@lumarrandom8144 he plunged europe in 20 years of war and french troops acted like animals in Spain
@@adamhauskins6407 what about Poland Bavaria Italy Saxony?
true. but the British weren't saints either
1:50
Damn! And these were the most avid human experimenters in history!
Yet Himmler and Goering were both avid hunters. I guess they went along so they themselves would not be executed.
hunters often love animals and the environment the most out of anyone, believe it or not. I think it's because they spend the most time around animals and the environment and have the time to develop a deep appreciation for nature.
Now you see why some people found it difficult to hate them. Everyone has a normal side.
4:27 you can’t tell me that’s not burt Reynolds
You can't tell me I didn't think that, then look down and see your comment. Get out if my head
My grandfather, who used to live in Italy, said that Mussolini made some land farmable near Terracina, which was my grandfather's home town.
Why is Genghis Khan a dictator? If he was a dictator so is Alexander the Great, Napoleon etc.
7:27 “Soviet Rasha” 😂
Rasha

i like how the cartoon model for saddam is different every time, hinting at his many doubles
I was going to comment why any American president wasn't mentioned; but then I remembered they didn't do anything good
Exactly
or maybe because they're not dictators since they were democratically elected
Bait used to be believable.
Because they were not dictators.
Imagine all the good these leaders could have done if it weren't for their vile nature so much potential for good wasted by being a monster
minor correction, but genghis khan created the larger land based empire in history, not the largest empire in history, the 'honour' of having the largest empire period belonged to the british empire

"Even a broken clock is right twice a day"
Gadaffi used to give newly married couples money to buy a new home, and he also started the African union.
Also Libya had pretty good and cheap healthcare. Not to mention bringing water to the desert.
Do Yugoslav Wars next
Genghis Khan or Mongols to be precise, they didn't just come to today's Hungary. They even came to the banks of Danube in today's Balkan peninsula. Meaning to say that they came to South - Eastern part of Europe.
Also Yugoslavian president Josip Broz Tito did a lot after WWII. He also helped literacy of Yugoslav citizens. Also Yugoslav engineers did many good things in the world, and some structures in USA, USSR, Africa, and South America were built by the civil engineers from Yugoslavia.
Here is one fun fact. USA once bought some jet planes such as Soko G-2, and couple of Soko G-4, since they loved that engineering achievements, and performances as well.
What does Tito have anything to do here?
@@PurooRoy It's a suggestion of good persons what did they do. I wasn't thinking on evil dictators.
Tito gave good things to Yugoslavian people, and also to world as well. Since almost whole world came to his funeral.
I hope I have explained the things there.
@@Harikejn thanks for explaining. I was confused as to how was Tito an evil dictator.
@@PurooRoy You are welcome. You are quite right. Tito had mistakes, but he wasn't evil. Even Charlie Chaplin gave vote that Tito should have a Nobel prize.
nobody starts off evil, it is the way absolute power corrupts
from the intro alone, the animal rights be hitler had nothing to do attacking jewish culture...just an unintended consequence
Best. Thumbnail. Ever.
Reminds me of the EU nowadays, conservationism is more important than citizens.
as it turns out, if everything is flooded and its insanely hot the economy won't save you
He also laid down the framework of a German led EU to be implemented after the war.
Really makes you think.
I was about to ask why isn't Trudeau in the video, but then I realized he's done nothing good
plus he's a clown 🤡
The only thing close to good is making a drug legal (can't remember the name- which is why he is still leading Canada but soon hopefully we'll be free from that idiot) but ye-
First of all, Justin Trudeau is not a dictator in any way, shape, or form. Second, he's done lots of good things for Canada and the World, including legalizing marijuana (the "drug" the other moron here can't remember...). Why do I get the feeling you think Hitler is a good person?
Because by definition, he's not a dictator?
its almost like their enemies in the media slandered and lied about them.
The nazis also developed the "Autobahn", which is the highway system and still used by Germany today
In Poland autobahn was untouched since the end of the war to 2000s' because of EU standards or whatever, it still serves us greatly
The Autobahn was developed by the Weimar republic, notably Konrad Adenauer, the then mayor of Cologne, and a famous Antifascist.
@herroberbesserwisser7331 Konrad Adenauer also invented meat substitutes like sausage out of soy protein
"Being an animal was a better option" being a species other than human most certainly!
Please represent my favorite vegetarian asexual art loving war veteran who went from homeless in a second world country to president of it and making it a first world superpower more accurately
Hitler was not the President of Germany.He only combined the office of Chancellor and of the President.
First and second worlds didn't exist before he died. Also, he was a chancellor, not a president.
he wasn't asexual
