Answer:

The best answer to the question: What is Athena trying to accomplish by saying the following? "Father Zeus - you other happys gods who never die-..." would be: 2. She is manipulating Zeus with irony. If a "just" king, like Odysseus, is punished by the gods, why would any king be just?

Explanation:

"The Odyssey" is the second work that was written by Homer, in Ancient Greece. The story tells of the adventures that Odysseus must face as he tries to reach his most desired goal, which is to go back home to his family in Ithaca. In this particular excerpt, present in book V, Odysseus has been trapped for a while on Calypso´s island but goddess Athena is trying to convince Zeus and the other gods to help her get Odysseus out and sent home. In order to accomplish this Athena uses words that are almost sarcastic, like "you other happy gods who never die" and particularly "never let any sceptered king to be kind and gentle now, not with all his heart, or set his mind on justice - no, let him be cruel and always practice outrage." All these sentences, show that Athena is almost trying to convince the other gods, especially Zeus, by accusing them of wanting exactly that, instead of a good man, thus giving mortals the wrong impression. In the end, what she is trying to do, is manipulate the gods, and she is successful with Zeus decides to send Hermes to demand from Calypso that she release Odysseus.

It is governed as unitary state under a presidential representative and democratic and a constitutional republic where the President function as both the head of state and the head of government of the country within a pluriform multi-party system.

The government has three interdependent branches: the legislative branch, the executive branch, and the judicial branch. The powers of the branches are vested by the Constitution of the Philippines in the following: Legislative power is vested in the two-chamber Congress of the Philippines—the Senate is the upper chamber and the House of Representatives is the lower chamber.

Executive power is exercised by the government under the leadership of the President. Judicial power is vested in the courts with the Supreme Court of the Philippines as the highest judicial body.

If government power is not limited becomes totalitarian or a dictatorship. Rodrigo Duterte, the president of the Philippines is authoritarian according to how he is ruling the country.

But many governments started being authoritarian and then became totalitarian.
