What if the lost world of Atlantis was more than just a legend—what if it was a prophecy?

In Critias, Plato recounts the rise and fall of Atlantis—an empire of incredible wealth and power that crumbled due to its own moral failure. Though only a fragment remains, its impact is enduring.

What you'll discover inside:

• The Myth of Atlantis – One of the earliest and most powerful visions of a lost civilization.

• A Moral and Political Allegory – A deep reflection on the perils of corruption and unchecked ambition.

• Philosophical and Historical Significance – An essential part of Plato’s political thought and a foundational myth of Western culture.

• A Timeless Warning – Relevant to any age facing questions of leadership, balance, and societal decay.

• Critias is more than a myth—it’s a haunting vision of what we stand to lose when wisdom is cast aside for power.
