| influenced = | education = | resting_place = Chiesa dei Santi Martiri | notable_works = ''The Reason of State'' }} Giovanni Botero (c. 1544 – 1617) was an Italian thinker, priest, poet, and diplomat, author of '' Della Ragion di Stato (The Reason of State)'', in ten chapters, printed in Venice in 1589, and of ''Universal Relations'', (Rome, 1591), addressing the world geography and ethnography. With his emphasis that the wealth of cities was caused by adding value to raw materials, Botero may be considered the ancestor of both Mercantilism and Cameralism. Provided by Wikipedia
