释义

Bandit Kingdom

A political entity or polity that is administered or dominated by criminals, bandits or outlaw elements. In most cases, a bandit kingdom will be ruled by criminals or bandits, and in other cases, they will be dominated by such groups, who have autonomy, but not rule, in the entity in question.

Sometimes, a bandit kingdom is also the name of a general area ruled or dominated exclusively by bandits, criminals, or outlaw elements, and while not political entity, the areas inhabitants or de facto rulers agree to rule and/or control by outlaws.
