  12. The Seating Chart

  13. Why are they sitting there…? Wrong seating placement could lead to a catastrophe. Simon Bolivar and John Locke are sitting next to each other because they are both revolutionaries. Fidel Castro and Saddam Hussein are sitting near each other because they were both dictators, who both started off just making reforms for the people and then turned into ruthless rulers. John Locke and John F Kennedy are sitting near each other because John Lockes ideas and philosophies contributed to the American Bill of rights and declaration of Independence, which would make quite the interesting conversation with an American president. Catherine the Great and Louis the XVI are sitting next to each other because they were both European leaders during the 1700s. Ashoka is sitting near JFK because they are both peaceful leaders. Castro and JFK were placed very far from one another due to their conflict regarding the Cuban missile crises. Also Castro and Saddam Hussein were placed far from Ashoka and John Locke. Both Castro and Saddam were ruthless and violent leaders who’s ideologies are the antithesis of ashokas Buddhist values. Their autocratic views, views on government are much much different then john locke’s views on natural born rights.
