Machiavelli's writings included some of Polybius' description on the Roman constitution which was part of the 6th book and in later years would come to influence the nature of the U.S.Constitution. [Cf.Wickoedia] Aside from historical information Polybius also wrote about the influence of fate in the course of history and the years in which Rome bacame the major power but the affairs of other powerful nations at that time are also discussed. 1 volume.
