按照斯巴达法律规定:王位由长子继承;但如果长子是在国王继位前所生,那么他将让位于继位后生养的年龄最大的儿子;如果去世的国王没有子嗣,王位将由与他血缘最近的男性亲属继承;如果继承人年龄尚幼,将由摄政王代行其职(斯巴达现有政体的创建者来库古就是摄政王)。Agirtasonly hassonLeotychides, 23 years old, are taken over the kingbyhimislogical, butaboutLeotychideswhetherareAgirtasone's own, are always the Eight Trigrams (gossip)topics of Spartapeople.

阿基斯只有一个儿子列奥提齐德斯,二十三岁,由他接任国王本是顺理成章,但是关于列奥提齐德斯是否是阿基斯亲生的,一直以来就是斯巴达民众的八卦话题。因为伯罗奔尼撒战争期间,雅典将军亚西比德投靠斯巴达,国王阿基斯对他非常器重,却没想到这位英俊风流的雅典人却勾引了他的王后,甚至弄得整个斯巴达城的人都知道了。备受羞辱的阿基斯扬言要将亚西比德碎尸万段,亚西比德却事先得知消息后,机灵的跑回了雅典,没多久阿基斯的妻子就怀孕了,因此斯巴达民众对让列奥提齐德斯当国王当然有疑惑。ButAgirtas'syounger brother, 45-year-oldAgesilaus, until nowperformswell, in the peopleeyes, heis the traditionalpureSpartaperson, although is lame, butalsohas the support of many.
而阿基斯的弟弟,45岁的阿格西劳斯,一直以来表现优异,在民众眼中,他是个传统纯正的斯巴达人,虽然是个跛足,但也得到不少人的支持。As you might guess, the followingthroneinherits the issuebeing barely sufficeeldersworry, whichalsohas the thoughtsto processTheoniasuchminor matter.
可以想见,接下来的王位继承问题将够长老们操心的了,哪还有心思去处理戴奥尼亚这样的小事。...........................

The merchant ship that the estuarycommunicatedalthoughwere many, the harboradministratorsstill the methodicaldirectortheyanchoredandunloaded cargo, the organizationwas quite ordered . Moreover the efficiencywas high. The transport worker in wharfworks is also very agile, the badperformance that is loafto act slipperyrarelyhaseventakes advantage of strangers.
入海口来往的商船虽多,港口的管理人员仍然有条不紊的指挥他们停靠和卸货,组织相当有序,而且效率较高。码头的搬运工人干活也很利索,很少有偷懒耍滑的甚至欺生的恶劣表现。Tiosseesto put on the whiteBurton'spersonnelhandonce for a whilewith the paper and pen, takes a strollin the wharvesback and forth, the place of everyhisway, theselaborsdisplaydiligently. Afterwardaskedothermerchantknows: Thesepeople of public officials who are the Theoniahousehold registerplacesends out, is responsiblethesefreemen who inspectto wantto become the alliancecitizensusuallyworkperformance, ifthere ismisdeeds, wantingand other age limitsto obtainto prepare the status of citizenat the appointed timeonsomedifficulties.提奥斯时不时看见有穿白色波顿的人员手拿纸和笔,在码头间来回溜达,凡他途径之处,这些劳工们都表现得更加勤快。后来问别的商人才知道:那些人是戴奥尼亚户籍处派出的公职人员,负责考察想要成为联盟公民的这些自由民平时的劳动表现,如果有劣迹,想要等年限到时获得预备公民的身份就有些困难了。Naturallyinharborfully-armedandback and forthpatroltwo and soldiers of threesquadsalsoenable the harbororderto obtainverygoodmaintenance.
当然港口里全副武装、来回巡逻的两、三小队的士兵也使得港口的秩序得到很好的维持。Tiosenters the harbor, discovered that the Theoniaalliance the city wall that usesto stand tall and erecttogetherthickly the harborencystation, the markethas been located outside the city wall.提奥斯走进港口,才发现戴奥尼亚联盟已经用一道厚实高耸的城墙将港口包绕,市场则位于城墙之外。Goes to the market, heresimilarlyis the region that makes noise, the fence of markethad demolished, because the storewere too many, the speed that the marketexpandscannot keep up with the speed that the storeincreases, storesandworkshopswere close, occupiedallopen areas, onlyleft behindspaciouschannelsfor the customerbusiness, the transportationcargoandfiremanfire fighting.
来到市场,这里同样是喧闹的区域,原本市场的围墙已经拆除,因为商铺太多了,市场扩建的速度赶不上商铺增加的速度,一个个商铺、作坊鳞次栉比,占据了所有的空地,只留下一条条宽敞的通道供顾客买卖、运输货物和消防队员救火之用。In addition, twospecialconstructionindependenceoutsidemarket.
此外,还有两栋特殊的建筑独立于市场之外。Oneis a hospital. The doctormedical skill of Theoniaallianceis wise, nowMagna GraecianorthernGreeksmostlyknows, evensomepeoplesaid: Is much stronger than the Crotonedoctor! MoreoverDavosfounded the entireGreeceunprecedentedcomprehensivehospital, obviouslyis different from the beforehandclinic, regardless of is very standardfrom the facility, system and managementandstrict, to the patient of seeing a doctorthisis an unprecedentedtreatment, thatnoble feelingmakes the doctornot startto treat, the patientfeltoneselfgoodhalf. Butto the doctor, hereis attractingtheirattentionlike the magnet, ifit is saidis notbecause the TheoniaallianceandCrotonerelateverystiffly, otherwisemanyCrotonedoctorswantto comethislearn/study and visit. Naturallyevery day, before hospitalgate, is fully occupied.
一栋是医院。戴奥尼亚联盟的医生医术高明,现在大希腊北部的希腊人大多都知道,甚至有人说:比克罗托内的医生还要强得多!而且戴弗斯创建了整个希腊前所未有的综合型医院,明显有别于以前的诊所,无论从设施、制度和管理都很规范和严格,对看病的患者而言这是一种前所未有的治疗方式,那种神圣感让医生还没开始治疗,患者就感觉自己好了一半。而对医生而言,这里就像磁铁一样吸引着他们的眼球,据说如果不是因为戴奥尼亚联盟与克罗托内关系很僵,不然很多克罗托内的医生都想来此学习和参观。自然每一天,医院门前都是人满为患。Butanotherbuildingactuallyalso many peoplesurround, Tiosasked,knowsis the Theoniaallianceis the court that the Thuriimarket and harborset upspecially, varioustrade disputes and conflicts that so thatquickprocessingsendsinthisfrequencyevery day, provide the conveniencefor the merchants, customersas well aslarge numbers ofsailorsandlabors. Regarding the pioneering work that thisotherGreekcity-statedo not have, Tiosis interestedvery much, thereforealsocrushed into the crowd.
而另一栋建筑却也有很多人围观,提奥斯一问,才知道是戴奥尼亚联盟为图里伊市场和港口特别设立的法庭,以便快捷处理每一天在此频发的各种贸易纠纷和冲突,为商人、顾客以及大批的水手、劳工提供便利。对于这个其他希腊城邦所没有的创举,提奥斯很感兴趣,于是也挤进了人群。

In the personal name that councilmustelecthasPollux, when hands overby the Davosverification, hehas not saidanything, butfinallyartificialPraultKeseyRouth of victory( because of a strengthrecommendation of Davos).戴奥尼亚联盟设立法官一职是在十一月初,主要是因为大量的外来人口涌入后,光常规的行政事务就够城市行政长官操劳的了,还要处理更加精细繁琐的法律纠纷,确实心有余而力不足,三个城市行政长官都在叫苦,于是戴弗斯提议,经元老院商议后,决定设立高级法官一职(在希腊的城邦中没有专门的法官一职,案件往往由将军或者执政官负责审判,而在雅典法庭甚至连法官都没有,是由陪审团来做判决。而在戴奥尼亚,作为唯一执政官的戴弗斯当然拥有最高审判权,但事务繁忙的他除非是重大案件,一般的案件纠纷不可能让他花费时间去处理,所以最初这个权利就下放给了各城市行政长官),他负责监管派驻到各城市的低级法官,并且处理上诉案件。元老院要推选的人名中有波吕克西斯,交由戴弗斯审核时,他没说什么,但最后胜选的人为普罗克西劳斯(因为戴弗斯的一力举荐)。OriginallyPraultKeseyRouthshouldassume the court in Thuriicity( althoughithas not constructedcompletely), bymarketthecourtis under the charge to hissubordinate.

本来普罗克西劳斯应该坐镇图里伊城的法院(尽管它还未完全建好),市场旁的这个法庭由他的下属来负责。但初建的联盟犹如清晨的太阳蓬勃向上,民众都全力忙碌着自己的事务,几乎没有复杂的、影响极大的案件让他处理,因此精力旺盛、偏又闲着无事的新任法官大人便跑来市场,夺了属下的权,来亲自审案。„What is nextcase?”PraultKeseyRouthjusthandled a dispute, extremely anxiousasking.
“下一个案子是什么?”普罗克西劳斯刚处理完一个纠纷,就急不可待的问道。SecondaryjudgeLouckLeonhidden bitternesslooked athisoneeyes.

Regarding as important, moreover when as the LouckLeon'simmediate superior, PraultKeseyRouthhasto the councilpublic serviceadministration committeereportsitswork achievementsandhemusttransfer the dutyrecommendationpower.
次级法官弗劳克列昂幽怨的看了他一眼。弗劳克列昂原是库诺戈拉塔的下属,本就在市政厅协助行政长官处理法律事务,这次将法律独立出来后,联盟中精通法律的人才并不多,弗劳克列昂被库诺戈拉塔推荐,迅速提拔为低级法官,也算是迈入了联盟中级官吏的行列,谁知高兴没几天,就被普罗克西劳斯占了位,他还不敢说什么,毕竟普罗克西劳斯不但是元老院元老,还是高级法官,它的地位同样显赫,刚一设立就被戴弗斯提升到仅次于城市行政长官的位置,以彰显联盟对于法律的看重,而且作为弗劳克列昂的顶头上司,普罗克西劳斯拥有向元老院公职管理委员会汇报其工作业绩和他要转职时的推荐权。„Is a wife of alliancecitizensues a Rhegionmerchantto discriminate againsther.”LouckLeonsaid.
“是一位联盟公民的妻子状告一名利吉姆商人歧视她。”弗劳克列昂说道。„Discrimination?”PraultKeseyRouthsomewhathas doubts.
“歧视?”普罗克西劳斯有些疑惑。„ThatwomanisLucanians.”LouckLeonsaidin a low voice.
“那个妇女是卢卡尼亚人。”弗劳克列昂低声说道。„.”PraultKeseyRouthnods: „Thatcomes up the plaintiff and defendantbelt/bring.”
“哦。”普罗克西劳斯点点头:“那就把原告和被告都带上来吧。”Thecourt in marketis not big, onlytoleratesNefaofficer, clerk, programmer, guardand othersto do the public officials, the plaintiffanddefendant can only standinopen-airout of court, itsbehindencircleswith the metal railvacates, the peoplecanwatchoutside the parapetat will, thiscanlet the people and foreignersunderstood that the law of alliance, achieves the function of speakingandenlightenment, makes the judgebe supervisedby the people.
市场里的这个法庭并不大,仅能容纳法官、书记员、程序员、卫兵等一干公职人员,原告、被告只能站在露天的庭外,其后面用铁栏杆围出空地,民众可以在栏杆外随意观看,这样既可以让民众和外邦人了解联盟的法律,达到宣讲、教化的作用,也同时让法官受民众监督。A man and a womanenter the court, under the influence ofprogrammer, firstreadpraisesHadessubordinatethreejudgeMinos, RadamanTos, godname, took an oathbytheirgod: Said is the fact.
一男一女进入法庭,在程序员的引领下,首先念颂冥王哈迪斯属下三位审判官迈诺斯、拉达曼托斯、艾库的神名,以他们的神名起誓:所说的皆为事实。Thenbyplaintiffstatement.
接着由原告陈词。ThisyoungLucaniawomanwith a pronunciationstrange, butfluentGreek: „RespectablejudgeSir, Iam the alliancecitizenIzamwife.

这位年轻的卢卡利亚妇女操着一口发音怪异、但又较流利的希腊语:“尊敬的法官大人,我是联盟公民伊扎姆的妻子。今天我来市场本想买一个盛橄榄油的陶瓶,到了他的铺子-”妇人手指着旁边的商人,说道:“发现他卖的陶器式样多,而且也很好看,于是决定在他这里购买,只因为挑选陶器花的时间多了一些,他就突然冲我发火,他说,‘该死的野蛮人,你到底买不买,你买不起就不要用脏手抚摸我的瓶子,否则弄坏了,把你赔给我做奴隶也不够!’还说……还说……”„JudgeSir, sheis lying! Ihave not spokensuchwords!” The merchantsshoutloudly.
“法官大人,她在撒谎!我从来没有说过这样的话!”商人大声喊道。„Youfirststop talking, whenshesaid,was one's turnyouto say!”PraultKeseyRouthscolded, thensaidto the woman: „Youcontinueddownward.”
“你先住口,等她说完,才轮到你说!”普罗克西劳斯呵斥,然后对妇人说道:“你继续往下说。”„Headded that-”womanis blushing, is staring the merchant, clenches teeth saying: „Headded,‚the barbaricwomanlike you do not use for parts such noblepottery, whenalsonotTathagatamymaidservant, makingme...... makemehappy, Ionehappy, perhapswill enjoy your pottery-’”
“他还说-”妇女红着脸,瞪着商人,咬牙说道:“他还说,‘像你这样的野蛮女人不配用这么高贵的陶器,还不如来当我的女奴,让我……让我快乐了,我一高兴,说不定会赏你一个陶器-’”Note: 1.inmyanotheronenovel«fromcity-statetoEmpire»has had the descriptionabout the matter that Thebesthird partyparticipates.
注:1.关于亚西比德第三者插足的事在我的另一本小说《从城邦到帝国》中有过描述。Aboutthestipulation that the Spartathroneinherits„, ifeldest sonbefore the kingsucceeds to the thronelives, thenhewill yieldafter the oldestson who succeeding to the thronegives birth to”, as ifalsohas the similartraditioninPersia, why the novelbeginsCyrus the Younger to rebel, the eldest son who after a primary causeisheishis fathertakes a seat, lives, buthisElder BrotherPersian kingArtaxerxesis not, thereforehethinks that heshoulddeserve the king, thisis„sovereignmoeexpensivelylives”.
关于斯巴达王位继承的这一条规定“如果长子是在国王继位前所生,那么他将让位于继位后生养的年龄最大的儿子”,在波斯似乎也有相似的传统,小说开头为什么小居鲁士要叛乱,其中一个主要原因就是他是他父亲即位后所生的长子,而他哥哥波斯王阿尔塔薛西斯不是,所以他认为他才应该当王,这就是“皇萌贵生”。
