jan 1, 1513 - Niccolò Machiavelli Wrote "The Prince"

Description:

The Prince encouraged political power and influence over moral law. It called for ruthless leaders with the sole desire to keep power, and that idealism was not useful. He also implied that "a ruler must lie if he is at a disadvantage".
