This is why the United States Congress is structured in the same manner as the Roman Congress. Versus the rectangular or roundtable types of congresses that are seen in European countries. 

They also took after the Romans on the idea of a republic being comprised of people elected to represent them. These people are also meant to be changed out on a regular basis. And that the public was in control of who was calling the shots on their behalf.

Dmitry [639]

The correct answer is:

A. Thomas More

Explanation:

Utopia was written by Thomas More in 1516 and it has been very controversial ever since. The book is divided in two books where Thomas More puts himself as the main character, that goes on a business trip with his friend Peter Giles and meets Raphael Hythloday (a great explorer who has traveled around the world).

They have a controversial talk about opinions over philosophy and it's influence on politics, that can be interpreted as controversial ideas More was having while trying to decide if he should join the king's service or not, because he wrote Utopia before he became Lord Chancellor.

Utopia in the book is a place Hythloday talked about and described as the greatest place on Earth, while More and Giles didn't believe such place could exist.
