D. Authoritarian
Explanation:
Until his death at age 66 in December 2006, Turkmenistan leader Saparmurat Niyazov served as president for life. He had elevated himself to cult status by posting his photo all over the country, named months after himself and family members, and required schoolchildren to read books he had penned while banning most others. Niyazov referred to himself as "Turkmenbashi", Father of all Turkmen, while severely limiting the flow of outside media. Therefore, Turkmenistan became isolated from the rest of the world.
