EXAMPLE SENTENCES

Historians studied the political structure of small medieval European despotates during the war. Several regional despotates emerged after the sudden fragmentation of the vast ancient empire. The powerful empire gradually annexed all neighboring independent despotates along its borders. Life under strict military despotates was characterized by severe public censorship and oppression. Diplomats negotiated trade agreements between independent merchant cities and surrounding feudal despotates.
