Carthage was a plutocracy and the real power of the state lay in the hands of a dozen big ship-owners and mine-owners and merchants who met in the back room of an office and regarded their common Fatherland as a business enterprise which ought to yield them a decent profit. (查看原文)
Of course, such a "plutocracy" was forever at the mercy of the crowd. As long as there was plenty of work and wages were high, the majority of the citizens were quite contented, allowed their "betters" to rule them and asked no embarrassing questions. But when no ships left the harbor, when no ore was brought to the smelting-ovens, when dockworkers and stevedores were thrown out of employment, then there were grumblings and there was a demand that the popular assembly be called together as in the olden days when Carthage had been a self-governing republic.

挂驴头卖狗肉！什么人类简史，就第一章写道地球诞生到细胞产生，人类物种出现，之后全是谁侵占谁的土地，谁又去攻占谁的帝国，不知道是否翻译问题，写得乱七八糟，同一个东西用几种写法，看得我云里雾里，看了30多章，不想再看了，和赫拉利的人类大历史相比差太远！
