23 1, XXVIII | reads of the things done by Republics will find in all of them
24 1, XXXI | less ungrateful than other Republics, but were even more merciful
25 1, XXXII | remedies do good. Therefore Republics as well as Princes ought

36 1, XXXVIII| less weak and ill-advised Republics do not know how to assume
37 1, XXXVIII| the worst part that weak Republics have, is to be irresolute;

42 1, LIII | it sometimes happens in Republics that good proceedings are
43 1, LV | for the existence of many Republics in freedom, and they so
44 1, LV | When it occurred in those Republics that they had to spend any

54 2, II | is not observed except in Republics, because everything is done
55 2, II | of armies and Princes of Republics. Our Religion has glorified
56 2, II | that in the world as many Republics are not seen in them that

61 2, IV | CHAPTER IV~REPUBLICS HAVE HAD THREE WAYS OF EXPANDING~
62 2, IV | ancient histories finds that Republics had three ways of expanding.
63 2, IV | one league of many united Republics, where there is not any
64 2, IV | the above mentioned two Republics, which were ruined for no
65 2, IV | not able to expand is that Republics are not united and have
66 2, IV | subjects is useless in armed Republics, it is even more useless
67 2, IV | which are unarmed, as the Republics of Italy have been in our
68 2, VI | other unwise Princes and Republics were impoverished [by theirs].
69 2, XIII | beginning of their expansions, Republics are also obliged to do until
70 2, XV | that ought to be noted by Republics similar to ours.~
71 2, XIX | XIX~THAT ACQUISITIONS IN REPUBLICS NOT WELL ORGANIZED AND THAT
72 2, XIX | this were believed, the Republics and Princes would have erred
73 2, XIX | well organized; as do the Republics of Germany, who, in this
74 2, XIX | great Cities. And if the Republics of Germany could live in
75 2, XIX | divided between the Swiss, Republics which they call Free Towns,

80 2, XXX | CHAPTER XXX~TRULY POWERFUL REPUBLICS AND PRINCES DO NOT PURCHASE
81 2, XXX | the proceedings of present Republics from the ancient ones. Because
82 2, XXX | power, and as she varies it, Republics and States change often,
83 2, XXXIII | because I see that the Republics of present times, as the
84 3, I | of mixed bodies, as are Republics and [Religious] Sects, I
85 3, I | principles of Sects and Republics and of Kingdoms must have
86 3, I | principles (speaking of Republics) is caused either by an
87 3, I | good then springs up in Republics either from the virtu of
88 3, I | principles. This return of Republics back to their principles
89 3, I | this is enough as regards Republics.~But as to the Sects, such
90 3, VI | crushed: as much because Republics are slower than a Prince,
91 3, X | this defect arises because Republics and Princes have imposed
92 3, X | of Commander, than do the Republics; and especially the Italian
93 3, X | indolent Princes, or effeminate Republics, sent out their Captain,
94 3, XII | neighboring Princes and Republics have for one another, which
95 3, XII | especially if they are Republics, as happened in Tuscany:
96 3, XV | that which is done by our Republics and Princes today, who sent
97 3, XVI | seen, therefore, that in Republics there is this evil of having
98 3, XVI | superiors. This defect in Republics has caused much ruin, for
99 3, XVI | the true course. But other Republics, which are not organized
