A '''megalomaniac''' is a person with an abnormal lust for power over others. Many dictators or tyrants around the world are megalomaniacs. A good example of a megalomaniac is Josef Stalin, who enjoyed personally wielding his power. Adolf Hitler, however, is not a good example; while it is true that he had a lot of power and was very oppressive, he was a lazy man and liked to delegate his power to other people to carry out vague orders. Typically, the only people who were victims of Hitler's megalomania were his generals and staff, who would be punsihed or demoted if they failed to achieve their objective.
