“To suppress the rumor that he was the arsonist, Nero fabricated scapegoats, and punished with every refinement the notoriously

depraved Christians. First, Nero had the self-acknowledged Christians arrested. Then, on their information, large numbers of others were condemned. . . . Their deaths were made farcical. Dressed in wild animals’ skins, they were torn to pieces by dogs, or crucified, or made into torches to be ignited after dark as substitutes for daylight. Nero provided his Gardens for the spectacle, and exhibited displays in the Circus, at which he mingled with the crowd, or stood in a chariot, dressed as a charioteer.”
—Tacitus, Roman historian,

Why did the german government issue a single currency for all of germany
Ray Of Light [21]

Germany’s leaders issued a single currency to promote a strong unified German economy.

<u>Explanation:</u>

German reunification occurred in 1990 where the leaders of the East Germany and the West Germany signed a treaty meant to establish the monetary and economic matters of the two countries.

Nana76 [90]
The correct answer is Operant Conditioning.

Operant Conditioning refers to the kind of learning, wherein behavior is empowered and enforced by consequences. For example, you want a child to follow what you would like him or her to do, so you add a punishment if he or she does not apply, which leaves the person no choice but to follow, because they do not want the punishment.
