Why does Iraq have a dictatorship government?

Iraq has experienced Dictatorship due to a combination of historical, political, and social factors, including the legacy of authoritarian regimes like Saddam Hussein's Ba'ath Party, which ruled with an iron fist, suppressing dissent and political opposition. The country's complex ethnic and sectarian divisions have also contributed to power struggles, often resulting in centralized, authoritarian rule to maintain control. Additionally, foreign interventions and conflicts have destabilized the region, allowing dictatorial governance to take root in the absence of strong democratic institutions.
