Thomas Hobbes believed that people are wicked by nature and need strong government control.

Hobbes wrote his most important book "Leviathan" during the English civil wars, 1642-1651. In that book, he shares his political philosophy and expresses the necessity of a social contract where citizens unite in societies to abide by powerful leaders that can protect them. He supported the idea of an absolute leader or a strong central government that "protects people from their own selfishness."
