Скачать или смотреть The Speech That Defined Democracy ||

⚰️ One funeral. One speech. One vision that changed how nations lead. After soldiers died defending Athens, Pericles stood before a grieving city—not just to mourn, but to remind them what they fought for. 🏛️ He didn’t glorify war. He glorified democracy. “We do not imitate others,” he said, “we are a model to them.” In that moment, sorrow became strength. Pericles gave Athens something no king could—identity, pride, and purpose built on law, not lineage. He made democracy not just a system, but a spirit. 💡 His words echoed through history, shaping Rome, America, and every republic that followed. Watch how one voice at a grave gave birth to the people’s power—and subscribe if you believe freedom must be spoken, even in mourning. 🕊️📣
