How do democratic and totalitarian governments differ in their handling of military affairs? Democratic countries usually do not maintain large armies, whereas such forces are essential to totalitaria
governments
Military leaders are popularly elected in totalitarian countries, while in democratic countries they are appoint
by civilian leaders.
Elected governments control militaries in democratic countries, while in totalitarian countries, they are
dominated by the leader.
In totalitarian countries, the public must vote to approve a declaration of war, but presidents in democratic
countries may independently decide to go to war,

Elected governments control militaries in democratic countries, while in totalitarian countries, they are  dominated by the leader.

Explanation:

A Totalitarian Government is one where the Government has all the power instead of the people who elect them. This is where dictatorships and autocracies usually fall under.

The rights of the people are subservient to that of the state which usually leads to human rights abuses. In such a country, the military is controlled and dominated by the leader as they use them to enforce their will.

This is the opposite of democracies where elected governments are the ones who control the military.
