Cruelty and compassion
Going further down our list of qualities, I recognize every ruler should want to be thought of as compassionate and not cruel. Nevertheless, I have to warn you to be careful about being compassionate. Cesare Borgia was thought of as cruel; but this supposed cruelty of his restored order to the Romagna, united it, rendered it peaceful and law-abiding.

The Influence of Apartheid-Era Architecture on Modern Urban Design
The legacy of apartheid, South Africa's system of institutionalized racial segregation and discrimination that lasted from 1948 to the early 1990s, continues to shape the country's urban landscape and architectural identity. Apartheid-era architecture, characterized by its stark divisions, spatial inequalities, and symbolic expressions of power and exclusion, has left indelible marks on South Africa's cities, influencing everything from infrastructure and housing to social dynamics and urban planning. In this article, we explore the profound impact of apartheid-era architecture on modern urban design and the ongoing efforts to reimagine and reshape South Africa's built environment.

Ease of Making War
“No national debt shall be contracted in connection with the external affairs of the state." There is no cause for suspicion if help for the national economy is sought inside or outside the state (e.g. for improvements to roads, new settlements, storage of foodstuffs for years of famine, etc.). But a credit system, if used by the powers as an instrument of aggression against one another, shows the power of money in its most dangerous form. For while the debts thereby incurred are always secure against present demands (because not all the creditors will demand payment at the same time), these debts go on growing indefinitely.

Curse of Amir Timur
Old tomb opened, curse unleased. It's a tale as old as time. I'm sure you've seen it in at least one movie. (I'm looking at you, Brendan Fraser, in the classic 1999 film The Mummy.) While the notion of a curse let loose from a desiccated corpse sounds like it might be exclusive to fiction, let me assure you—it's not. There have been a few documented cases of pretty strange events that line up with curses on tombs. Let's look at one such curse with origins in the Eurasian Steppe that some say affected the outcome of World War II.
