It is why a tyrant can remain in control.

If instead you are asking about the elementary difference between real and reactive power, then I suggest you go back to your textbook for an answer. If this still baffles you, explain to us what you do understand so that we can then clarify. But we will not do your homework for you.

Then again maybe we should do your homework. This way when you go to your exam or to a more complex class, you will fail miserably. Nah, show us some effort first.

Boadicea and Joan would certainly disagree.
