That's not quite true. You can have a prosperous or a poor capitalist state ruled by a one party dictatorship or an absolute monarch. The Gulf States and China like the West abide by their own form of Capitalism but none are democratic. South Korea, Spain, Portugal, Greece, Turkey, Latin America and others all were dictatorships for many decades as capitalists countries.
