If anybody could imagine the worst possible government it would be the one in the book Anthem by Ayn Rand. The genre of this book is fictional. This book takes place in the future and the main character is Equality. The government thinks that are time right now is bad. So in the book which takes place in the future they burn all the stuff they find from are time. In their time they are controlled by their government so they can’t have like any freedom at all.

Last of all they can't have any relationships with their family, friends, and basically anybody at all. This would be an awful place to live in if the government had the right to control the
