Read this passage from chapter 5 of the prince. but when cities or countries are accustomed to live under a prince, and his family is exterminated, they, being on the one hand accustomed to obey and on the other hand not having the old prince, cannot agree in making one from amongst themselves, and they do not know how to govern themselves. for this reason they are very slow to take up arms, and a prince can gain them to himself and secure them much more easily. but in republics there is more vitality, greater hatred, and more desire for vengeance, which will never permit them to allow the memory of their former liberty to rest; so that the safest way is to destroy them or to reside there. how does machiavelli work to achieve his primary purpose to convince readers that a prince must ruin a conquered republic or live there? select two he lists the types of territories a prince might conquer. he describes the role of a ruling family in a principality. he explains the roots of rebellion in conquered republics. he identifies the characteristics of government in a republic. he contrasts the characteristics of principalities and republics.

1-He explains the roots of rebellion in conquered republics.

2-He contrasts the characteristics of principalities and republics.

I tried my best, hope this helps :)

The correct options are "He explains the roots of rebellion in conquered republics" and "He contrasts the characteristics of principalities and republics".

In this excerpt, Machiavelli advices that the most efficient way of handling a republic which had been formerly free would be to destroy them or leave them alone, as the risk for a Prince would be far too big. In these territories, the people have a greater sense of hatred and vitality and a stronger tradition of freedom, which will make them more likely to rise against a conqueror.

To reinforce this point, he makes a comparisson between those republics and the principalities. The latter are accostumed to obey a ruler, which makes them easier to conquer and handle afterwards. The Prince will have a much easier time remaining in power over these territories as opposed to the more rebellion-prone republics.

Hope this helps!

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
