How to Rule the World
How to Rule the World | André De Guillaume
8 posts | 2 read
Everyone wants to rule the world, but only a precious few have the skills to create an ironclad plan of attack. Simple, direct, and delightfully unprincipled, this guide contains tales of global power mongering from every age and endeavors to show dilettante dictators and tyrants-to-be just how it's done. Tips are provided on creating a personal flag, what type of puppet government to establish, how to squelch free speech, and, most important, how to handle enemies. Also included are humorous full-color illustrations, sidebars on admirable despots, and self-quizzes that allow readers to see if they have what it takes to conquer the world.

I still remember reading this wild book in my high school senior years. The book is short yet funny with some real history facts thrown in. It was in my schools library somehow and I was the first person to borrow it. I shared it around with others who thought it was funny too though sadly our attempts of world domination have not yet succeeded.

Would recommend for those who want a laugh and/or take over the world.
