Machiavelli

One modern day example of Machiavelli is Niccolo Machiavelli is an Italian diplomat, political theorist, and a historian who has written the political book called The Prince. Machiavelli emphasized the need for realism, as opposed to idealism. He did not explain what he believes or political goals.

Love than feared or feared than love?

"Is it better to be loved than feared or feared than love?" Some people want to be both. It's difficult to unite them into one person. A lot of people don't know what love is, so they end up getting hurt or hurting someone else. Many people today fear love. Which is sad, but true.

Choson/Joseon Korea

      Joseon Korea is an creative place. Tons of uncommon things there. Things you would not expect in America. Taejo was the founder of Joseon korea. Which lasted for approximately five centuries .It was founded following the aftermath of the overthrow of the Goryeo Dynasty os called he city of Kaesong.

Joseon has different Chinese culture. I was very interested. I saw the different height of classical Korean culture, trade, science, literature, and technology. However, the dynasty was during the late 16th and early 17th centuries, After the end of invasions from Manchuria, Joseon experienced a nearly 200-year period of peace. There's a lot of information in the brochure.

 I know the people that live here enjoy Joeson. Its so interesting, and you can never stop learning about this place. The best thing I came upon was learning about "King Sejong the Great". He did a lot for Joeson. sadly to day he died, and I could not meet him, but it would have been a honor.
