Totalitarian architecture refers to the architectural style officially approved by dictatorships and over-centralized governments, with a preference for grandiosely large yet boring buildings; the style drew on simplified Neo-Classicism[1]. The examples include Stalinist architecture, Fascist architecture and Nazi architecture.[2][3][4] While many examples of totalitarian architecture are European,[5] it has also been discussed in the context of other parts of the worlds, such as architecture of North Korea.[6] These architectures are generally united by using the megalomania to portray a sense of power, majesty and virility.[7]
