No shit. I'm talking about Alexander the Great, who was incredibly pious, and big fan of Homer, not Genghis Khan.

Complete agreed. You left out Alexander for the material world.

Marx and Hegel are both too teleological in their concept of history, and both put too much emphasis on economics over Power.

Alexander the Great, Ghengis Khan, and Tamerlane are good examples of how irrelevant economics is over Power.

Machiavelli is still the finest political philosopher.
