Actually, later on at the end of the fourth century
-
when Aristotle is writing his Politics,
-
he makes really a very clear connection as to the style of fighting
-
and the kind of constitution that you have.
-
He said very clearly,
-
if you use cavalry as your major arm,
-
your state will be an aristocracy.
-
If you use hoplites, your state will be,
-
what he calls a Politea, a moderate regime.
-
If you use a navy,
-
your state will be a democracy
-
in which the lower classes are dominant.
