Aristagoras ignores advice from an oracle‚ and instead asks help from the Spartan army‚ which is known to be a great army. The reader is taught by the author

    a government‚ different from Britians. So they used the ideas of the the Enlightment Thinkers to help write the Constitution.

He says so in his article "Two Treaties of Government." These same ideas are reflected in the United States Declaration of Independence

    The Republic of Plato Before I started reading Plato’s the Republic‚ I was loathe to admit that reading those philosophy books were gonna really change how I view myself.

    Letter to a philosopher Jessica Liska October 2014 To Whom It May Concern‚ The statement “The world is absurd‚ in the sense that no ultimate explanation can be given for why it is the way it is” (Moore & Bruder‚ 2011‚ p. 152) intrigues me. I agree with this statement for many different reasons. One of which is the fact that it all comes down to one simple thing: there is no explanation.
