The Revolution was in the minds and hearts of the people; a change in
their religious sentiments of their duties and obligations. While the
king, and all in authority under him, were believed to govern in justice
and mercy, according to the laws and constitution derived to them from
the God of nature and transmitted to them by their ancestors, they
thought themselves bound to pray for the king and queen and all the
royal family, and all in authority under them, as ministers ordained of
God for their good; but when they saw those powers renouncing all the
principles of authority, and bent upon the destruction of all the
securities of their lives, liberties, and properties, they thought it
their duty to pray for the continental congress and all the thirteen
State congresses, &c.

Alea iacta est ("The die is cast") is a variation of a Latin phrase (iacta alea est) attributed by Suetonius to Julius Caesar who pronounced it in the year 49 B.C. when he was leading his army across the Rubicon river in the current territories of Northern Italy. Subsequently, he entered in Italy heading his army and defying the Roman Senate and it meant the beginning of the civil war versus Pompey and the Optimates.
- Plutarch, referred to the same event in his written testimonies and reported the phrase but stating it was pronounced in Greek instead of Latin and that its translation meant: <em>'Let the die be cast'.</em>
- Suetonius described the same situation, reporting a very similar phrase but not exactly the same. Let's include the exact excerpt of his writings where he did so.
<em>Caesar: '... iacta alea est,' inquit.</em>
<em>Caesar said, "The die has been cast."</em>
Thefore there are two very similar versions of the same historical events. Usually the Latin version is the most widely known, as the Latin language was more widespread all over Europe and gave rise to all the current family of Latin languages (Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, etc).
The correct answer is B) Korea achieve independence because Japan lost the war.
<em>The movement toward independence in India differs from that in Korea in that Korea achieve independence because Japan lost the war.</em>
The Japanese had invaded Korea and annexed it in 1910. The Korean independence leaders had to leave Korea and went to China, under the support of the Nationalist Government of China.
China became an Allied during World War II, so with the Declaration of El Cairo in 1943, Korea should be an independent nation, but the Soviet-Japanese War did not allow that to happen. The result of that confrontation divided Korea into North Korea, controlled by the Soviet Union, and South Korea, under the influence of the United States.
