Which act restricted the freedom of speech by authorizing the arrest of anyone who made "false statements" that might impede military success?

Answer:

The correct answer is D) to get spices, gold, silk, and jewels

Explanation:

The Europeans in the 1400s were looking for new sea routes to East Asia. After the establishment of the Ottoman Empire, it became difficult for Europeans to trade with Asia, especially since the Turks charged large fees.

The Turks started to control the lucrative trade between Asia and Europe and made a lot of money.

This had a strong impact on European economies.

As an alternative, the sea explorers were looking to reach East Asia to find goods which were in high demand in Europe such as Silk, Spices, Porcelain, etc.

Montresor knew that his house would be empty because he made sure that his servants would leave by telling them that he would not be returning home. His servants don't respect him.

Fortunato insulted Montresor in "The Cask of Amontillado," although it is never known for sure how he did it or even whether he did.

The reader is only aware of Montresor's claim that Fortunato was responsible for his alleged "thousand injuries." If so, Fortunato has likely already criticized Montresor and his surname.

Because Montresor is one of Poe's numerous unreliable narrators, his statements cannot be taken at face value.

We must thus use caution when he claims that Fortunato also caused him "a thousand pains." He never specifies the kind of reported injuries, therefore we should be extra cautious.

When Montresor talks about having received a thousand wounds, he is not referring to physical injuries but rather to slights or insults to his honor.

The correct answer is A & D, Rightness and An attribute of God.

Justice is rightness and an attribute of God Option(A) and (D) is correct. Hypotheses of distributive justice concentrate on what is to be circulated, between whom they are to be appropriated, and what is the legitimate dispersion.

Justice, in its broadest sense, is the rule that individuals get what they merit, with the translation of what then, at that point, comprises "meriting" being affected upon by various fields.

Early speculations of justice were set out by the Old Greek logicians Plato in his work The Republic, and Aristotle in his Nicomachean Morals. Backers of heavenly order hypothesis have said that justice issues from God.

During the 1600s, scholars, for example, John Locke said that justice gets from regular regulation. Common agreement hypothesis said that justice is gotten from the shared arrangement of everybody. During the 1800s, utilitarian logicians, for example, John Stuart Factory said that justice depends on the best results for the best number of individuals.

Therefore Option(A) and (D) is correct.

The decline of the empire after A.D. 180 was caused by boundary and leadership disputes, corruption, a weakened economy due to a decline in trade, religious differences, and the hiring of unreliable mercenaries.

The decline of the empire after A.D. 180 occurred due to multiple, interconnected factors. The key among these are boundary disputes, leadership disputes, and corruption, decline in trade which negatively affected the empire's economy, religious differences that caused internal discord, and the use of hired mercenaries who often proved unreliable during important conflicts.

,

Boundary disputes often led to conflicts and wars that drained resources and destabilized the empire. Leadership disputes created internal turmoil, hindering decision-making and causing instability. Corruption eroded public trust and weakened the administrative system, while a decline in trade led to a poor economy which in turn hampered the empire’s ability to maintain and develop its territories.

,

Religious differences often lead to division and conflict within the society, straining social unity. The use of mercenaries instead of a loyal, standing army frequently led to instances of betrayal or changing sides during critical moments. These factors combined, leading to the empire's gradual decline.

An area or political unit in which formerly independent states are under the control of one ruler.

An Empire, according to option A, is an area or political unit in which formerly independent states are under the control of a single ruler. Empires control political, social, and economic matters in the territories they rule, like the Roman Empire did.

The best definition for an Empire is option A: an area or political unit in which formerly independent states are under the control of one ruler. Empires usually involve a central figure of authority or government that has significant influence over a number of areas or territories. This influence extends to control over their political, social, and economic aspects. An example would be the Roman Empire, which at its height controlled vast territories across Europe, Asia, and Africa, with a central government located in Rome.

Answer:

The actual number of amendments that the leaders first proposed was twelve, but two were not ratified at the time.

Explanation:

On September 25, 1789, Congress approved twelve articles of amendment to the Constitution and submitted them to the states for ratification. This was contrary to Madison's original proposal that articles that could be incorporated into the main body of the Constitution were proposed as "complementary" additions to it. On December 15, 1791, articles three to twelve, after being ratified by the required number of states, became amendments from one to ten of the Constitution.

On November 20, 1789, New Jersey became the first state to ratify the amendments. On December 15, 1791, ten of these proposals became the first ten amendments - and official law of the United States - when they were ratified by the Virginia legislature.

Article I, rejected by Delaware, was ratified only by 10/14 states (<75%), and despite Kentucky's late ratification (11/15 states <75%), the article has never received sufficient approval to form part of the Constitution. Article II was ratified by 6/14 states, then by 7/15 states, but did not receive the majority of three-fourths of the states necessary for ratification until 1992 when it became the Twenty-seventh Amendment of the Constitution.

The peace symbol around a soldier's neck is considered contradictory because the symbol represents peace and disarmament, while soldiers are associated with war and conflict.

Answer:  Hobbes believed that people were inherently violent, while Locke argued people were born as blank slates.

Further explanation:

Both English philosophers believed there is a "social contract" -- that governments are formed by the will of the people.  But their theories on why people want to live under governments were very different.

Thomas Hobbes published his political theory in Leviathan in 1651, following the chaos and destruction of the English Civil War.  He saw human beings as naturally suspicious of one another, in competition with each other, and acted with evil and violence toward one another as a result.  Forming a government meant giving up personal liberty, but gaining security against what would otherwise be a situation of every person at war with every other person.

John Locke published his Two Treatises on Civil Government in 1690, following the mostly peaceful transition of government power that was the Glorious Revolution in England.  Locke believed people are born as blank slates--with no preexisting knowledge or moral leanings.  Experience then guides them to the knowledge and the best form of life, and they choose to form governments to make life and society better.

In teaching the difference between Hobbes and Locke, I've often put it this way.  If society were playground basketball, Hobbes believed you must have a referee who sets and enforces rules, or else the players will eventually get into heated arguments and bloody fights with one another, because people get nasty in competition that way.   Locke believed you could have an enjoyable game of playground basketball without a referee, but a referee makes the game better because then any disputes that come up between players have a fair way of being resolved.    Of course, Hobbes and Locke never actually wrote about basketball -- a game not invented until 1891 in America by James Naismith.  But it's just an illustration I've used to try to show the difference of ideas between Hobbes and Locke.   :-)
