Why was Akhenaten called the first individual in history? Do you agree or disagree with his reforms?
Answer:
Akhenaten (r. 1353-1336 BCE) was a pharaohof 18th Dynasty of the New Kingdom of Egypt. He is also known as 'Akhenaton' or 'Ikhnaton' and also 'Khuenaten', all of which are translated to mean 'successful for' or 'of great use to' the god Aten. Akhenaten chose this name for himself after his conversion to the cult of Aten. Prior to this conversion, he was known as Amenhotep IV (or Amenophis IV). He was the son of Amenhotep III (1386-1353 BCE) and his wife Tiye, husband of Queen Nefertiti, and father of both Tutankhamun (by a lesser wife named Lady Kiya) and Tutankhamun's wife Ankhsenamun (by Nefertiti).
What were the Causes of the French Revolution?:Question 9
France experienced a financial crisis in the 1770s. This was brought on in part by
the excessive spending and losses by:
Select one:
The clergy and the nobility
O
The peasants and the bourgeoisie
Marie Antoinette and King Louis XVI
o
Maximilien Robespierre and Emmanuel J. Sleyes
Answer:
It was both the fault of King Louis & his wife, as well as the clergy and nobility
Explanation:
King Louis and Marie probably could have at least alleviated some of the problems with the 3rd estates view of the upper class, but they didn't. In-fact, they made it worse, by spending money extravagantly on unhelpful things ( such as Marie turning her hair into a boat ). Oversimplified made a really good video on the whole revolution if you want to watch it.
Answer: Origins Of The Revolution
The French Revolution had general causes common to all the revolutions of the West at the end of the 18th century and particular causes that explain why it was by far the most violent and the most universally significant of these revolutions. The first of the general causes was the social structure of the West. The feudal regime had been weakened step-by-step and had already disappeared in parts of Europe. The increasingly numerous and prosperous elite of wealthy commoners—merchants, manufacturers, and professionals, often called the bourgeoisie—aspired to political power in those countries where it did not already possess it. The peasants, many of whom owned land, had attained an improved standard of living and education and wanted to get rid of the last vestiges of feudalism so as to acquire the full rights of landowners and to be free to increase their holdings. Furthermore, from about 1730, higher standards of living had reduced the mortality rate among adults considerably. This, together with other factors, had led to an increase in the population of Europe unprecedented for several centuries: it doubled between 1715 and 1800. For France, which with 26 million inhabitants in 1789 was the most populated country of Europe, the problem was most acute.
A larger population created a greater demand for food and consumer goods. The discovery of new gold mines in Brazil had led to a general rise in prices throughout the West from about 1730, indicating a prosperous economic situation. From about 1770, this trend slackened, and economic crises, provoking alarm and even revolt, became frequent. Arguments for social reform began to be advanced. The philosophes—intellectuals whose writings inspired these arguments—were certainly influenced by 17th-century theorists such as René Descartes, Benedict de Spinoza and John Locke, but they came to very different conclusions about political, social, and economic matters. A revolution seemed necessary to apply the ideas of Montesquieu, Voltaire, or Jean-Jacques Rousseau. This Enlightenment was spread among the educated classes by the many “societies of thought” that were founded at that time: masonic lodges, agricultural societies, and reading rooms.
Explanation: The French Revolution was a watershed event in modern European history that began in 1789 and ended in the late 1790s with the ascent of Napoleon Bonaparte. During this period, French citizens razed and redesigned their country’s political landscape, uprooting centuries-old institutions such as absolute monarchy and the feudal system. The upheaval was caused by widespread discontent with the French monarchy and the poor economic policies of King Louis XVI, who met his death by guillotine, as did his wife Marie Antoinette. Although it failed to achieve all of its goals and at times degenerated into a chaotic bloodbath, the French Revolution played a critical role in shaping modern nations by showing the world the power inherent in the will of the people.

Why did the Soviet Union want to spread communism to neighboring countries?
To protect its territory
Answer: D
Relations between the Soviet Union and the United States were driven by a complex interplay of ideological, political, and economic factors, which led to shifts between cautious cooperation and often bitter superpower rivalry over the years. The distinct differences in the political systems of the two countries often prevented them from reaching a mutual understanding on key policy issues and even, as in the case of the Cuban missile crisis, brought them to the brink of war.
The United States government was initially hostile to the Soviet leaders for taking Russia out of World War I and was opposed to a state ideologically based on communism. Although the United States embarked on a famine relief program in the Soviet Union in the early 1920s and American businessmen established commercial ties there during the period of the New Economic Policy (1921–29), the two countries did not establish diplomatic relations until 1933. By that time, the totalitarian nature of Joseph Stalin's regime presented an insurmountable obstacle to friendly relations with the West. Although World War II brought the two countries into alliance, based on the common aim of defeating Nazi Germany, the Soviet Union's aggressive, antidemocratic policy toward Eastern Europe had created tensions even before the war ended.
The Soviet Union and the United States stayed far apart during the next three decades of superpower conflict and the nuclear and missile arms race. Beginning in the early 1970s, the Soviet regime proclaimed a policy of détente and sought increased economic cooperation and disarmament negotiations with the West. However, the Soviet stance on human rights and its invasion of Afghanistan in 1979 created new tensions between the two countries. These tensions continued to exist until the dramatic democratic changes of 1989–91 led to the collapse during this past year of the Communist system and opened the way for an unprecedented new friendship between the United States and Russia, as well as the other new nations of the former Soviet Union.

1. Why did the news of the Emancipation Proclamation not have effect the slaves in Texas?
Answer:
slavery had technically been abolished two years earlier by Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation, which covered the Confederate states. As Union troops retook territory, they emancipated enslaved people living there. And the orders issued on Juneteenth applied only to Texas. Slavery didn’t end in states like Kentucky and Delaware, which hadn’t seceded and therefore weren’t covered by Lincoln’s proclamation, until Dec. 18, 1865, when the 13th Amendment was adopted.

Jade was used by the Mayan for crop rotation and farming techniques.
Jade and obsidian were traded by the Mayan through an extensive network.
Obsidian was used by the Mayan to build canals for irrigation.
Answer:
C. Jade and obsidian were traded by the Mayan through an extensive network.
Explanation:
The role play by jade and obsidian in the Mayan economy as Obsidian was used by the Mayan to build canals for irrigation. Option D is correct.
What is irrigation?Water for the crops was delivered by irrigation canals in clay utensils. By collecting debris and aquatic plants from the irrigation canals, the Maya nourished the crops. As a result, the environment became self-sustaining.
The impenetrable jungle was cleared by Mayan farmers using the slash-and-burn method and rainwater captured through irrigation ditches. By rotating across their many fields to reach the most fertile soil for each harvest season, they were able to have multiple planting areas and prevent soil erosion.
Therefore Option D is correct because the Mayan built subterranean stone reservoirs to collect and store water so they could utilize it to water their plants later.

Why were the colonists angry about "taxation without representation?"
A. The colonists wanted to pay taxes on stamps and tea
B. The colonists had no representation in Parliament
C. The colonists fought to write the Declaration of Independence
D. The colonists were loyal to the British and wanted to keep them happy
Answer:
B.
Explanation:
With the British implementing taxes on the colonists and basically pushing them away, they didn't have a say in Parliament.
Answer: B. The colonists had no representation in Parliament
This was true of any English colony, as they were deemed of a lesser government status compared to citizens of England itself. While the English crown was likely justified to increase taxes (to pay for the seven years war), they did so without asking the colonists. Instead, the taxes were raised almost as if overnight more or less. This increased the cost of a lot of goods, which angered the colonists.

Martin Luther King, Jr. was committed to nonviolent resistance to racial prejudice, even
when facing people who disagreed. What evidence from the text best supports this
conclusion?
"The peaceful protests he led throughout the American South were often met with
violence, but King and his followers persisted, and their nonviolent movement gained
momentum
"A powerful orator, he appealed to Christian and American ideals and won growing
support from the federal government and northern whites.
"By that time, the civil rights movement had begun to fracture, with activists such as
stokely Carmichael rejecting King's vision of nonviolent integration in favor of African
American self-reliance and self defense."
"In the late 1960's, King openly criticized U.S. involvement in Vietnam and turned his
