Imagine you're the boss of a big toy factory. You decide who gets to work, what toys get made, and how much everyone earns. If you're really important, like the biggest boss of all, other people might listen to your decisions because they believe in you or are afraid of you. That's kind of how a single person can have so much power, they make the rules for everyone else.
Examples
- A teacher who decides which students get extra credit,
- A president who can pass laws without needing others to agree.
