The Prince, written by the great Niccolò Machiavelli is a 16th century instruction guide for new princes and royals.
Often referred to as the principalis of modern political philosophy, the treatise is set just prior to the Italian renaissance and details the use of 'fear' as a tactic of control, and the desirable attributes of a great leader: 'virtue' and 'prudence'.
