Set in the fictional city-state of Abdera, this satirical novel explores the absurdity of a government led by incompetent rulers obsessed with power. The protagonist, Democritus, arrives to study the political system but finds himself battling the foolishness of the leadership and their sycophants. Through humor and sharp critique, the author addresses the failures of absolute monarchy and advocates for individual liberty and democracy. This work offers a compelling commentary on the political and social issues of 18th-century Europe.
