In what economic systems do government leaders decide what to produce how to produce and for whom?

In command economies, government leaders make decisions about what to produce, how to produce, and for whom goods and services are distributed. These systems, often associated with socialism or communism, involve centralized planning where the state controls resources and production methods. Examples include the former Soviet Union and North Korea, where the government dictates economic activity to achieve specific social or economic goals. In contrast, market economies rely on individual choices and market forces to determine these factors.
