    Solution

    Explanation: A megalomaniac is someone with an obsession for power and control, often coupled with delusions of grandeur. Egotist: Someone who is excessively self-centered or talks about themselves constantly, but this doesn’t necessarily imply a craving for power. Narcissist: A person with excessive self-love and admiration, but their obsession is with themselves rather than power. Autocrat: A ruler with absolute power; while they may exhibit authoritarian control, they may not necessarily exhibit the psychological obsession seen in a megalomaniac. Tyrant: A cruel or oppressive ruler, but the term focuses more on their oppressive behavior rather than their obsession with power.
