Would a junta leader most likely be a military dicatator?

Probably not. Juntas are usually governed by a group of military officers.

This was the original question:

A ruler of a junta would most likely be this type of leader:
a. a military dicatator
b. a funny one
c. a king or queen
d. a member of parliament

Oh. In that case, military dictator is the best answer. Many junta leaders become dictators, even though they may start out as part of a committee.

You're welcome.

Yes, a junta leader is typically associated with military dictatorship. "Junta" refers to a group of military officers who come together to seize control of a government or state. They often overthrow an existing government, suspend democratic processes, and establish themselves as the ruling authority. The junta leader, who is typically a senior military official, exercises dictatorial power and controls both the government and the armed forces.
