Plato writes about philosopher kings in his writing Kallipolis. Kallipolis discusses a utopia, or Plato's ideal city-state. He says that "philosophers must become kings...or those now called kings must genuinely and adequately philosophize." This meant that philosopher kings must have the strength and leadership of a king along with the wisdom and knowledge of a philosopher.
