Niccolò Machiavelli's thoughts on political power and realistic governance influenced Enlightenment thinkers by challenging traditional ideas about morality and leadership. His emphasis on the use of force and manipulation to maintain control resonated with thinkers seeking to understand power dynamics. They incorporated Machiavelli's ideas into their own discussions on politics and society, contributing to the development of Enlightenment thought.
