尼可罗·马基雅维利:君主论·摘录 32
尼可罗·马基雅维利《君主论》· The Prince · 领导 · 人性 · 行动 · 健康
The cities of Germany are absolutely free, they own but little country around them, and they yield obedience to the emperor when it suits them, nor do they fear this or any other power they may have near them, because they are fortified in such a way that every one thinks the taking of them by assault would be tedious and difficult, seeing they have proper ditches and walls, they have sufficient artillery, and they always keep in public depots enough for one year’s eating, drinking, and firing. And beyond this, to keep the people quiet and without loss to the state, they always have the means of giving work to the community in those labours that are the life and strength of the city, and on the pursuit of which the people are supported; they also hold military exercises in repute, and moreover have many ordinances to uphold them.

白话
德国城市是自由的,周围土地少,只在合意时服从皇帝,也不怕附近强权,因为防御工事坚固:有壕沟、城墙、足够火炮,公共仓库常备一年粮草弹药。此外,为让人民安定且不损国家,他们总能让社区有活干,这些劳作是城市生命和力量所在,人民靠此维生;他们还重视军事训练,并有许多制度维持。这说明自由城市靠自给自足和全民防御来保持独立。
上下文
马基雅维利《君主论》以德国自由城市为例,说明坚固防御和民众支持如何抵御外敌。
