Philosophers

Plato was another philosopher who came after Socrates. He was a student and follower of Socrates. He wrote out Socrates' techniques and teachings. Plate wrote "Republic" which was based on justice and the ideal state. He felt that people who thought like him and taught like him were the best and should be the rulers of Athens. Aristotle was after Plato. He was a student of Plato. He helped make Athens a intellectual destination. So if you wanted to learn something new you could just come to Athens. He created a school called "Lyceum". He didn't invent the internet but he was the one who created the idea to have all mankind knowledge in one spot. He tutored Alexander the Great who ended up being one of the best conquerers.
