B. A letter describing a major battle written by a soldier who is not a good writer
C. A biography of a presidential candidate written by the candidate's main opponent
D. A chart showing historical trends in the U.S. stock market written by a French citizen

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

The correct answer is C) A biography of a presidential candidate written by the candidate's main opponent.

The source that is the most likely to contain a problematic bias is "A biography of a presidential candidate written by the candidate's main opponent."

The rival candidate could find hard to maintain objectivity when writing the biography because he was his political rival and it is probable that he could have some resentments and differences that could bias the information of the book. It would be hard for him to write objectively and readers should read the information carefully, knowing that what is expressed in the biography could be biased and needed other sources to confirm its validity.

In chronological order, which factors led to the Ming dynasty’s decline?

Answers

In the middle of the 14th century a rebellion broke out among the Chinese farmers, who were forced to erect dams on the Yellow River by the Emperor Huizong, belonging to the Yuan Dynasty of Mongol origin, initiated by Kublai Khan almost a century before.

After the rebellion, a poor farmer and Buddhist monk, Zhu Yuanzhang, rose to the imperial throne by initiating the Ming Dynasty. Its lineage would direct the destinies of the most extensive empire of its time during almost three centuries and would lead to China to its period of greater stability, favoring a great cultural splendor and a social and economic development without precedents in the history of the country.

With the seventeenth century came the decline of the Ming Dynasty. The Little Ice Age brought years of cold and dry weather that, by shortening the periods of cultivation, produced strong shortages.

Thus, the famine returned to China. The taxes went up and the works were paralyzed, which in turn generated floods that, like a wheel, generated more hunger due to shortage of crops.

In contrast to the majority ethnic group in China, the Han, in the region of Manchuria, in the northeast of the country, the predominant ethnic group is Manchu.

At the beginning of the seventeenth century the Manchu tribal leader Nurhaci unified the region, vassal of the Ming Empire and, with a strengthened army and the dominant empire in full decline, declared war on Emperor Wanli.

The war lasted for more than twenty years. The Ming empire, in the midst of the economic and social crisis, had scarce resources for war, and desertions in the army were continuous and numerous.

As had happened three centuries before, social discontent resulted in numerous popular uprisings across the country. But finally the catalyst was a mutiny of the troops, who did not receive supplies.

The mutinous troops, with popular support, had no difficulty in imposing themselves on the loyal, weakened army, mostly for the defense of the northern wall. The rebels marched on Beijing and its leader, a former postal service worker named Li Zicheng, proclaimed himself emperor.

When the gates of the Forbidden City opened thanks to a betrayal and the mob entered, the last Ming emperor, Chongzhen, hanged himself from a tree in the imperial garden.

Despite the death of the emperor and the fall of the dynasty, the Ming power did not disappear from China immediately. Some cities and provinces, still loyal to the old emperor, resisted the Manchu power. However, little by little they were falling in front of the new imperial power and the last suitor Ming was defeated and executed in 1662.

What makes a one party system so dangerous to implement?

Answers

Answer:

The one-party system refers to the political frameworks where one party forms and runs the government. It can happen in two ways. Either the activities of the opposition can be outlawed or the possibility for the opposition to come into power is suppressed. In some cases, the dominant parties allow the less dominant ones to exist, so that the party can hide authoritarianism. Some scholars argue that even in multiparty system party can act as authoritarian, so the legal framework, social and economic and political factors become important in such matters. The one-party system is dangerous as one party nominates all the candidates and there is no place for opposition.

A single-party system is one in which one party nominates all candidates for office. Thus there is no competition for offices etc

They left Rome and built their own city. C. They refused to fight in the army. D. They refused to repay their debt and reclaimed any land they had lost.

Answers

D. is the correct answer they refused to repay their dept and reclaimed any land they had loss you probually couldve read in your book to find that answer but whatever

The correct answer is A. Rome's common people banded together, called themselves plebeians, and demanded political power.

The plebeians considered themselves Roman citizens; and had as such obligations (notably military service) and certain political rights. They were not a social class but the whole of citizenship.

Tradition attributes to king Servius Tullius (6th century BC) the inscription of the plebs in public records, organizing it into craft corporations (the collegia).

These reforms of Servio Tulio, based on the census, allowed the plebs to become part of the army and the centennial elections and, later, in the context of the struggles between patricians and commoners that characterized the first centuries of the Roman Republic, even of the same Senate, accessing all the magistracies.

The patrician-plebeian confrontations took place from the Secessio plebis of 494 BC until the promulgation of the Lex Hortensia in 287 BC.

Pressed by the demands of the plebs, the patricians consented to the drafting of a public and written legal code (Law of the Twelve Tables) that was successively amended and expanded with new laws granting commoners new rights (to marriage, to the priesthood, etc.), the ability to vote in the different Roman assemblies and the legal effectiveness of their resolutions (plebiscite), and the exclusive appointment of two magistrates (the tribunes of the plebs) with powers to guarantee their rights.
