theocracy

Iran, which once held so much sway, is not talked of as a model: theocracy does not appeal to the youngsters on the Arab street.(伊朗，曾经像个墙头草一样，摇摆不定，不能称之为典范。神权对阿拉伯街头的年轻人来说，没有什么吸引力。)

Remember, though, his purpose in throwing off Roman authority was not to usher in freedom, but to pave the way for an even more ruthless theocracy of his own.(不过请记住，他抛弃罗马教会的目的不是为了拥抱自由，而是为自己实行更加残酷的神权统治铺设道路。)

Many of the monasteries are closed, and much of the theocracy seems to have passed into history.(许多寺庙已经关闭，以及大部分的神权似乎已成为历史。)

Even now quasi - theocracy dies hard.(今天，即使是“准神权”也难以轻易消逝。)

I had hardly been outside my hotel, and already I realized that visiting a theocracy would be a memorable experience.(我几乎没有走出酒店就已经意识到访问一个神权统治的国家一定会是一种难忘的经历。)

The theocracy equated rebellious thought and action with Satanic influence.(神权把任何反抗的思想和行为归为魔鬼的影响。)

As private ownership appeared in Xia Dynasty and Shang Dynasty, theocracy became more and more prominent.(随着私有制的出现，夏、商时期，神权思想越来越严重。)
