I remember hearing a story about some country's leader started gathering their legislators and then claimed he had uncovered a list of names conspiring against him, then announced the names one by one, got the soldiers to lead them to a hallway, and executed them, then the remainder of them pledge loyalty to the leader.

Something like that, forgot what country it was. But this sounds so familiar. Uncanny parallel.
