The Greek philosopher who wrote The Republic in an attempt to explain such topics as justice and the ideal state was Plato.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Athenian philosopher Plato was the student of Socrates who delivered significant works in both philosophy and politics. He was most noted for his famous work The Republic.

He presented about the justice in the state and benchmark of the ideal state. His work about the republic divided into ten books. He expanded the ideology of Socrates with his sayings. He raised questions about the justice that made people question themselves about justice.

He gave a new view about the justice that is just man being on their own. Also, he had a lot of views about an ideal state. That is past experience and history along with wisdom can lead to an ideal state.
