He believed that power derives from the leader himself so when he states "it's is better to be fear than love" it means it's more effective when you use force to achieve power in order for a change instead of being loved and not getting anything.

Answer: To lessen the chance of revolt within the ruler's domain and ensure a prolonged reign.

Explanation:

Machiavelli is one of the first to analyze the exercise of political power without any concern about morality. The Prince shows that Machiavelli firmly stated that human nature is genuinely corrupt and selfish. Hence, a prince needs to be feared to deter revolts. In this theory, the idea that no prince is able to always please all of his people leads to the recommendation for rulers to infuse fear in the people to avoid rebellion.
