One of the last thing I read that really impressed me was a paragraph about what a king has to do to keep a new Republican state. It said that the easiest way is to destroy some cities so that people get scared and understand who has the power. It made me think a lot about it, and actually i think it is pretty true. Anyway I can't compare anything of today's world to this. I've been thinking a lot about how Romans conquered the world and kept it for a very long time. And today I think ONU wouldn't let happening anything like that, but probably a lot of presidents and chiefs use this scarying-politic against their people. For example Mao Zedong used a lot this rule in China. I think that it is very important to learn these things, even if i'll never be a president i will always be able to judge their actions with a more chritical eye.
