- The ideal versions of the things and concepts we see around us.

2. Who are the three groups in Plato’s ideal society?
- Producers, the military, and the rulers.

3. What were Plato’s thoughts on women?

4. What was the Noble Lie that Plato proposed?
- We are all born with gold, sliver, or a mixture of brass and iron in our souls, which determined our role in life.
