What did a Greek philosophers believe was most important in life?
Crank

Answer that I'll offer:  PURSUING WISDOM

There were many Greek philosophers, and their ideas were not all in agreement with each other.  But in general, the Greek philosophers all agreed that pursuing wisdom is the most important thing in life.  One of the earliest of Greek philosophers, Pythagoras (in the 6th century BC), is thought to have coined the term "philosopher."  The report is that Pythagoras did not want to claim to be a wise man who already had great wisdom, but that he was a "lover of wisdom" who sought to be wise.  In Greek, "philos" is a word for "love" and "sophia" is the word for wisdom.  So a "philosopher" is a "lover of wisdom."

The great philosopher Socrates (5th century BC) was famous for saying, "The unexamined life is not worth living."  He saw the goal of his life as constantly seeking wisdom -- and that what truly made him wise was recognizing how little he truly knew with certainty.

Other Greek philosophers like Plato and Aristotle and more followed in that tradition.  They did not all agree on all the details of what the best pattern is for life in this world.  But they did all seek wisdom as the most important thing in life.

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.

The most valid counter-argument to the description of the Mongols by the Russian duke was that the Mongols were interested only in plunder and treasure but not in controlling the Russian territory.

As we know by reading this part of history, the Mongols were terrible warriors that showed no mercy. They were fierce fighters that indeed were interested in destroying and plunder. And more than conquering and establish a form of government to rule a territory, by the way, they attacked and proceeded, it seemed that they were more interested in becoming wealthy.
