Protocratic

In the drives of war and revolution protocratic rule broadens into sovereignty: "the domiant human power, individual or pluralistic, in a politically organized and politically independent population."

People usually are not ignorant from choice; but often they are uninformed if clarifying facts are inaccessible or deliberately withheld from them by protocratic minorities.

All day and all night God's protocratic forces, the angelic enforcers of heaven, are ministering on the saints' behalf, Church.

Turner and West ( 1968 ) suggest that the phases of an interglacial period (cryocratic, protocratic, mesocratic , telocratic ) be considered as cenozones.

These shade-tolerant and relatively long-lived trees soon compete out the protocratic communities.

An example of the vegetation of this initial protocratic phase of the Holocene would be the subarctic birch–aspen woodland which existed adjacent to the retreating southern margin of the Scandinavian ice sheet.

The climatic recession which produced Britain's last glaciers came rapidly to an end about 10,000 bp, as temperatures rose during the end of the protocratic phase of the present interglacial.
