Produktbeschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. World Government is the notion of a single common political authority for all of humanity. Its modern conception is rooted in European history, particularly in the philosophy of ancient Greece, in the political formation of the Roman Empire, and in the subsequent struggle between secular authority, represented by the Holy Roman Emperor, and ecclesiastical authority, represented by the Pope. The seminal work on the subject was written by Dante Alighieri, titled in Latin, De Monarchia, which in English translates literally as "On Monarchy". Dante''s work was published in 1329, but the date of its authorship is disputed. Under Cyrus The Great and Darius the Persians founded one of the world''s first stable, sophisticated empires based around the area of modern day Iran and Iraq. At its height, the empire was, arguably, the largest and most powerful state inthe world, stretching from the banks of the Indus river in the area of modern-day Pakistan to roughly what now forms the westernmost boundaries of modern-day Turkey.
