Read this passage from chapter 5 of The Prince,
What is Machiavelli's primary purpose in writing this
passage?
There are, for example, the Spartans and the Romans,
The Spartans held Athens and Thebes, establishing
there an oligarchy, nevertheless they lost them. The
Romans, in order to hold Capua, Carthage, and
Numantia, dismantled them, and did not lose them. They
wished to hold Greece as the Spartans held it, making it
free and permitting its laws, and did not succeed. So to
hold it they were compelled to dismantle many cities in
the country, for in truth there is no safe way to retain
them otherwise than by ruining them. And he who
becomes master of a city accustomed to freedom and
does not destroy it, may expect to be destroyed by it, for
in rebellion it has always the watchword of liberty and its
ancient privileges as a rallying point, which neither time
nor benefits will ever cause it to forget. And whatever
you may do or provide against, they never forget that
name or their orvledes unless they are disunited or
O to inform readers about the history of Rome and
Sparta and how they built their empires
O to inform readers about the fates of the cities
conquered by the Spartans and the Romans
O to persuade readers that a conquering prince must
destroy a former republic the hopes to hold it
to persuade readers that a republic will remember
freedom and someday rebel against a conqueror
