Niccolò Machiavelli (1469-1527) was an Italian philosopher, writer, and politician, known for his influential works on political theory and statecraft.

Machiavelli was born in Florence, Italy, and worked in various government positions throughout his life. He served as a diplomat, military strategist, and secretary to the Council of Ten, the ruling body of Florence.

In 1513, Machiavelli wrote his most famous work, “The Prince,” which is considered one of the most significant works of political theory in Western history. The book is a practical guide for rulers on how to gain and maintain power, and its teachings often prioritize power and success over moral principles.

Machiavelli’s other notable works include “Discourses on Livy,” in which he discusses the importance of republican government, and “The Art of War,” which is considered one of the most important works on military strategy.

Machiavelli’s ideas were often controversial and earned him a reputation as a political cynic. However, his influence on political theory and philosophy has endured, and his works continue to be studied and debated today.

Machiavelli died in Florence in 1527 at the age of 58.
