World's Worst Rulers

"What Makes a Good Ruler?" explores the essential qualities of effective leadership, emphasizing traits such as transparency, dedication, vision, and loyalty to both the people and the state. The book argues that true leaders are open to change and innovation, fulfill their promises, and prioritize the needs of their citizens over personal power. However, it also critically examines rulers—kings, queens, and politicians—who governed according to their personal whims and ideologies without considering long-term consequences. Through historical accounts ranging from ancient times to the present, the book highlights how autocratic rule, often disguised as leadership, has repeatedly led to failure and unrest. These stories serve as cautionary tales about the dangers of power unchecked by reason, empathy, or accountability. By contrasting good leadership with the pitfalls of authoritarianism, this book invites readers to reflect on the values that shape just governance and the impact rulers have on society across time.
