He thought that the monarchy was guaranteed peace. He believed that any ordered government was bound to have a civil war. 

Another philosophy he had was that the sovereign should have complete control over the country. Not all monarchs have that. He thinks that the king should say who owns what, what you worship,who works where. ]]> 2020-09-11 15:07:14 UTC https://padlet.com/hengstme/oqa3fppjtc82h5f2/wish/739013698 hengstme https://padlet.com/hengstme/oqa3fppjtc82h5f2/wish/739134622 His most famous book was Leviathan which he wrote in 1651.

Thomas thought that the government should protect their citizens and now our government does just that. He also had influence on the Constitution by saying that all citizens should have equal rights. They also should have equal protection. Hobbes had the social contract theory that was giving up some rights for security which influenced the Declaration of Independence.]]> 2020-09-11 15:34:47 UTC https://padlet.com/hengstme/oqa3fppjtc82h5f2/wish/739147334 hengstme https://padlet.com/hengstme/oqa3fppjtc82h5f2/wish/739246738 2020-09-11 15:54:40 UTC https://padlet.com/hengstme/oqa3fppjtc82h5f2/wish/739246738 williamssg https://padlet.com/hengstme/oqa3fppjtc82h5f2/wish/753697333 I  disagree because I felt that the people should have a self-imposed law. I also  felt that the community comes together by the opinions of the people. I valued education because I wanted my kids to be smart and wise. Like Thomas Hobbes, I also lived in France. ]]> 2020-09-17 01:24:56 UTC https://padlet.com/hengstme/oqa3fppjtc82h5f2/wish/753697333 https://padlet.com/hengstme/oqa3fppjtc82h5f2/wish/756950217 I disagree with that. The leader of a country should never have all the power. If a country has a monarchy then the king can do whatever he wants, he could kill people if he thought they were guilty, make any law he wanted, ETC.]]> 2020-09-17 20:25:18 UTC https://padlet.com/hengstme/oqa3fppjtc82h5f2/wish/756950217
