The following is the entire second chapter of "The Hollow Empire." This book is part of our Foundational Works series. Its purpose is to show the earliest formations of our ideas.

The voice and certain aspects and concepts in our thinking may be inconsistent with our tone and voice now, but that is intentional. These are the earliest foundations of the thought processes of PT. This chapter explores how Athens became hollowed out and broken. You may remember the glory age of Athens, but you may not remember its fall. This chapter illuminates key themes that "The Hollow Empire" explores.

This series, as was mentioned above, is part of our Foundational Works series. This is reserved exclusively for paid members only. If you would like to explore this series, please subscribe below.
