The results show that Nasser was a charismatic leader that created the ideology of Arab socialism. Although the Arab socialist ideology says that the leadership is supposed to be democratic and legal, Nasser was an authorial and charismatic leader. In spite of this Nasser kept the large support from the Arabic masses.
