The mycenaeans were probably peaceful traders with little or no military t/f+correction
malfutka [58]

Mycenaean Greece (or the Mycenaean civilization) was the last phase of the Bronze Age in Ancient Greece, spanning the period from approximately 1600–1100 BCE. It represents the first advanced civilization in mainland Greece, with its palatial states, urban organization, works of art, and writing system.[1] Among the centers of power that emerged, the most notable were those of Pylos, Tiryns, Midea in the Peloponnese, Orchomenos, Thebes, Athens in Central Greece and Iolcos in Thessaly. The most prominent site was Mycenae, in the Argolid, after which the culture of this era is named. Mycenaean and Mycenaean-influenced settlements also appeared in Epirus,[2][3] Macedonia,[4][5] on islands in the Aegean Sea, on the coast of Asia Minor, the Levant,[6] Cyprus[7] and Italy.[8]

The Mycenaean Greeks introduced several innovations in the fields of engineering, architecture and military infrastructure, while trade over vast areas of the Mediterranean was essential for the Mycenaean economy. Their syllabic script, the Linear B, offers the first written records of the Greek language and their religion already included several deities that can also be found in the Olympic Pantheon. Mycenaean Greece was dominated by a warrior elite society and consisted of a network of palace states that developed rigid hierarchical, political, social and economic systems. At the head of this society was the king, known as wanax.

Mycenaean Greece perished with the collapse of Bronze Age culture in the eastern Mediterranean, to be followed by the so-called Greek Dark Ages, a recordless transitional period leading to Archaic Greece where significant shifts occurred from palace-centralized to de-centralized forms of socio-economic organization (including the extensive use of iron).[9] Various theories have been proposed for the end of this civilization, among them the Dorian invasion or activities connected to the "Sea Peoples". Additional theories such as natural disasters and climatic changes have been also suggested. The Mycenaean period became the historical setting of much ancient Greek literature and mythology, including the Trojan Epic Cycle.[10]

If you were an American worker in the 1800s, what would you do to improve your situation? Check any boxes that you agree with.
Nimfa-mama [501]

All of the above are correct. I'll explain:

Work became more dangerous in the 1800's. This was a result of the increase in industrialization, it caused machines to be more powerful, and easier to cause harm. Also, workers in the late 1800´s had a very low standard of living, consequence of their low wages.  So this caused 4 things:

  • Low skilled jobs often didn't result in better wages or better and safer working conditions, so they attempted to try to get into a skilled trade.
  • They often demanded higher wages because jobs often came with very low wages for workers.
  • Workers began to join forces to gain enough power to impose better wages and working conditions. They joined forces with other employees creating 'working unions'.
  • Sometimes they just tried to find a better job when none of the other options were available, or didn't work at all.

I hope this helps understand why all of the options are correct. Working in the 1800's was a risky business!

Have a great week!
