Well then...who wrote the republic?
You should enlighten me...who created the concept of a leader governed by laws?

Plato wrote a book called "The Republic". He did not "create the original idea of a republic". I know the Roman Republic was founded about 500 BC. I don't know if there were any republican governments before that.
