The nature of all

The republic is a multicellular organism with a brain. The brain governs usually in response to input from the body, but sometimes in spite of it. The spirit is the collective will of the cells composing the body. The spirit, a being of collective will, wants to believe it is immortal. But it will die with the cells, sooner or later.
