Why Richelieu?

>>17970234
I always had a fascination with the guy

How he was a catholic cardinal who allied with his faith's enemies, was a close friend of Louis XIV and being a masterful statesman

I also think he suffers from a Machiavelli-syndrome where pop-culture always depicts him as some sort of shadowy villain because of the Three Musketeers

Why invite a conqueror when you can invite the greatest souls that have ever graced humanity and discuss philosophy with them? Do you plan on invading a country soon?

Jose Canseco
Hillary Clinton
Gilles Deleuze
My local priest
Iannis Xenakis
Thomas Pynchon

I don't think ancient Romans would have much shared ground with Mr. Canseco so I tried to keep it people of roughly the same era.

>>17973660
Use the philosopher spot to get the best philosophy.
Use the military/religious spot to learn how to rally people to your cause.
Use writer spot to learn how to become a great orator
Miscellaneous/athlete spots for random shit you want to know. Maybe pick a random dude from a certain time period in history to learn what really happened. You could also use this spot to find hidden ancient treasures and stuff if you wanted to kickstart your quest for world domination.

>>17973692
ah you see power as the greatest good. then you are too impure to gain anything from philosophy.
