"These are the things before me. And as I stand here at the door of glory, I look behind me for the last time. I look upon the history of men, which I have learned from the books, and I wonder. It was a long story, and the spirit which moved it was the spirit of man’s freedom. But what is freedom? Freedom from what? There is nothing to take a man’s freedom away from him, save other men. To be free, a man must be free of his brothers. That is freedom. This and nothing else" Ayn Rand. Dystopia is a imaginary place where everything is unpleasant and society is extremely bad.

      Equality 7-2521 is smart, tall, handsome, strong, and fearless. Equality is special because he invented the electric light and became a scholar in his society within a few years. In Anthem citizens have no freedom, no individuality, and no technology. Not having freedom would be the hardest to live without because i wouldn't get to do the things i wanna do when i wanna do them. Living without freedom would also make it hard for me to have any individuality. For me Living without technology would be the easiest because there was a time when technology didn't and people still survived regardless. I'd rather have freedom than technology.

        After the Great Rebirth, Society makes all men the same and all men brothers to eliminate conflict. Based on what i read from the story they were not successful in eliminating the conflict. No matter how hard you try everyone is different. For instance Equality 7-2521 was tall not everyone in that society was tall not everyone was smart. Equality was brilliant.

          Utopia is a community highly desirable or perfect. If i had total power and authority over a country i would make a perfect Utopia. Everyone would be free and would be able to be who they wanna be. I would make sure every is able to get a free education. My Utopia would be place full of opportunities for everyone. One possible disadvantage would be having the wrong kind of people in my society
