Giraffes are the tallest of all land living animals. They have a body length between 3.8 and 4.7 m (9.75 - 15 ft), a tail length between 78 and 100 cms (31 - 39 inches), a shoulder height between 4 and 4.7 m (13.1 - 15.4 ft) and they weigh between 0.6 and 1.9 tonnes (0.5 - 2 tons).
Differences between authoritarian and totalitarian regimes[edit] The term authoritarian regime denotes a state in which the single power holder â an individual dictator, a committee or a junta or an otherwise small group of political elite â monopolizes political power.
In an authoritarian government, one leader or a small ruling group is in charge. No checks or balances are in place to limit this control. Political powers rest at the top, where all laws are made and citizen rights and privileges are determined.
