Plato looked for the ideal government. Aristotle wanted to "consider, not only what form of government is best, but also what is possible and what is easily attainable."

Plato believed in a philosopher-king ruling through a merit-based caste system in an ideal society governed by reason, while Aristotle preferred a mixed government of monarchy, aristocracy, and democracy, emphasizing the importance of a balanced constitution. Plato's ideal government aimed for a utopian society based on abstract forms, while Aristotle focused on empirical observation of existing political systems.
