Answer:
The persecution of Christians in the Roman Empire occurred throughout most of the Roman Empire's history, beginning in the 1st century AD. Originally a polytheist empire in the traditions of Roman paganism and Hellenistic religion, the Christianization of the Roman Empire brought early Christianity into ideological conflict with the imperial cult and the practice of making sacrifices to the deified emperors, which violates Christianity's prohibition on idolatry; Christians were punished for not conforming to officially-sanctioned religious norms. In the 4th century, the state church of the Roman Empire began persecutions of Christians considered to be apostates, heretics, or heterodox in doctrine.
General persecution of Christians in the empire began with the Neronian persecution under the emperor Nero (r. 54–68), and was resumed under the emperors Decius (r. 249–251) and Trebonianus Gallus (r. 251–253) with the Decian persecution and Valerian (r. 253–260) with the Valerianic persecution. After Valerian's epochal capture by the Sasanian Empire's Shapur I (r. 240–270) at the Battle of Edessa during the Roman–Persian Wars, imperial persecution of Christians was halted by Gallienus (r. 253–260).
The augustus Diocletian (r. 283–305) began the Diocletianic persecution, the final general persecution of Christians, which continued to be enforced in parts of the empire until the augustus Galerius (r. 310–313) issued the Edict of Serdica and the augustus Maximinus Daia (r. 310–313) died. After Constantine the Great (r. 306–337) defeated his rival Maxentius (r. 306–312) at the Battle of the Milvian Bridge in October 312, Licinius and his co-emperor Constantine issued the Edict of Milan, recognizing Christianity as a legal religion. Thereafter, Constantine began his own persecutions of Christians.
After Nicene Christianity was established in the early 4th century, Arian Christians were persecuted by the Roman state, particularly from the reign of Theodosius the Great (r. 379–395) onwards. Theodosius persecuted Arian Christians and established Nicene Christianity as the state religion of the empire. Subsequently, the augusti Pulcheria (r. 414–453) and Marcian (r. 450–457) convoked the Council of Chalcedon and established Chalcedonian Christianity, beginning the state persecution of non-Chalcedonian Christians.
Which of the following was NOT an impact of the Great Famine?
A. pushed westward settlement in the United States
B. spurred Irish emigration to the United States
C. increased death and starvation in Ireland
D. contributed to Anglo-Irish tensions
E. led to a female Irish work force for US textile mills
Answer:
I believe it may be A
Explanation:
For this, I can tell you that the answers are NOT B, C, or E.
It is not B, because when the potato famine hit, that was one of the places that the Irish ran to. The US, Canada, and Great Britain.
It is not C, because for the small Irish farmers, their main food crop was potatoes. Without their main source of food, people starved. Starvation leads to death. About 750,000 died and about 2 million emigrated.
And, it is not E because that was one of the jobs the Irish females took over once they came to America. Matter of fact, this was one of the few jobs that women could take along with being servants and taking in laundry.
With the Irish coming to America, there would be tensions between the Americans and Irish. To some, the Irish were seen as taking over jobs from free blacks or from the poor. Also, the Irish weren't really let in for normal jobs because people would put up NINA signs (No Irish Need Apply). So this is why I would think it is not D.
The main expansion happened during 1848 and 1849 when the California Gold Rush came around. The Famine happened in 1845. The first ww expansion started in 1803 and the Oregon settlement was around the early 1830s and 1840s.

Answer:
D. Unfunded mandate.
Explanation:
An unfunded mandate is one where states are required and expected to perform certain duties without any provision of financial support from the federal government. This federal regulation or statute expects states or local bodies to execute certain actions but also provides no monetary support to them for the very act.
Unfunded mandates are majorly controversial or unfair in that companies or states are expected to do certain work but not be refunded or supported. This means there is no aspect of help, like working under someone's orders but spending one's own money.

unfunded mandate

c
stopped worshipping their own deities.
d
gave up their previous way of living.
Answer:
B)
Explanation:
As a result of being conquered by Egypt, Nubia accepted many Egyptian beliefs and customs.
Nubia accepted many Egyptian beliefs and customs, as a result of being conquered by Egypt. Thus, option (b) is correct.
The area known as Nubia is located along the Nile River between the first cataract of the Nile and the junction of the Blue and White Niles. It was the center of one of the earliest African civilizations, which flourished from about 2500 BC until the New Kingdom of Egypt's conquest by Pharaoh Thutmose I approximately 1500 BC, whose heirs controlled the majority of Nubia for the following 400 years.
Egypt took control of all of Nubia around 1500 BC, establishing a vast empire that extended from the Euphrates in Syria to the fifth cataract of the Nile. Egypt's wealth supported the New Kingdom pharaohs for more than 500 years.
Hence, option b is the appropriate answer.

Why might the Grange movement have limited appeal in the United States?
Answer:
It only represent farmers.
Explanation:
The Grange movement mainly focus on improving the quality of Farmer's life due to the exploitation that was made by the people in railroad industry;. The movement advocated for the reduction in railroad cost that was deemed as too expensive for farmers to be able to distribute their products. They wanted the government to impose stricter regulations on Railroad industries.
But, since farmers are the only group that they often talk about, many people didn't feel represented in the movement. Some of the poor workers from mining and railroad industries even felt attacked. As a result , the Grange movement had a very limited appeal in United States.

The architecture of the mosque show cultural diffusion as Arab traders introduced West Africans to new religious practices. The appropriate response is option A.
What is cultural diffusion?Cultural diffusion is the spreading and blending of elements from various cultures. These various cultures all have many different types of food, clothing, and even languages that people love and enjoy on a daily basis.
Cultural diffusion is important because it is the process by which human behaviors spread, allowing the species to survive. This explains how humans can carry out all of their activities, from acquiring food and building shelter to creating their best art.
Islamic architectural styles spread through expansion and relocation, resulting in mosque architecture that shares some design elements and incorporates elements of local culture.
This means they built them as a result of their culture blending with Islamic traditions. And, as stated in the response, Arab traders introduced new religious practices to West Africans.

Use the quote to answer the question: "The natives are only too happy to share…for a copper kettle and a few toys, as beads and hatchets, they will sell you a whole Country…" Which European power was able to purchase a valuable island with "a few toys"?
Answer:
The Dutch
Explanation:
The transaction was made between Peter Minuit who represented the Dutch West India Company, and a leader of the Lenape Native Indians. The Dutch paid just 60 guilders which is not a very reasonable amount of money to purchase the 22,000 acres of land from the Native Indians.
The Dutch acquired the land with little ease and without breaking a sweat. That is why it could be said of the Native Indians that they could sell you a whole country for just a few toys.
