Good quote: Machiavelli on 2020 year stuff
  • Vitaliy_KiselevVitaliy_Kiselev

    In that year, when the Roman people established the office of tribunes with consular power, and only the plebeians were elected to it, with the exception of one, yet pestilence and famine happened, and the Nobils, referring to certain signs, took this opportunity to re-elect the tribunes; they began to say that the gods were angry with the Romans for insulting the greatness of power and that they could be pacified only by restoring the old custom of electing tribunes; and the plebs, being in fear due to their piety, chose only the nobles as tribunes.
