So he's known for politics but not a politician. Interesting

If not a member of the Royal Family, is he considered a political theorist / philosopher?

This is tricky. "Yes" would be more misleading than "No".

As part of brainstorm you can chuck in ‘religious figure/leader’.

We could also try narrowing down the dates he lived further.
