Background information: This is an excerpt from a speech given by Russian President Boris Yeltsin when he resigned from office i

n 1999.
I want to ask you for forgiveness, because many of our dreams have not been realized, because what we thought would be easy turned out to be painfully difficult. I ask for forgiveness for not fulfilling some hopes of those people who believed that we would be able to jump from the grey, stagnating, totalitarian past into a bright, rich and civilized future in one go. I myself believed in this. It seemed that with one spurt we would overcome everything . But it could not be done in one fell swoop. In some respects I was too naive.
–President Boris Yeltsin,
1999

How did Mesopotamia influence the culture of the ancient Egyptians?
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

Mesopotamia influenced the culture of the ancient Egyptians, especially, their architecture which includes not only pyramids but also other constructions. The concept of writing also influenced the Egyptians.

Explanation:

The effect of Mesopotamian styles on Egyptian architecture is seen in most of their constructions. The blueprint of a typical mastaba design in Mesopotamia matches absolutely with the plan of a pyramid. The design of the exterior walls of a mud-brick fort in Mesopotamia has been implemented in Egyptian architecture. The Zoser complex at Saqqara is a perfect example. Niched architecture is found on stelae or memorial stones which had been created to commemorate important events. This kind of architecture is very similar to that of Mesopotamia. Finally, the erection of ziggurats in Mesopotamia also influenced the temple constructions in Egypt. The ziggurats were temples created on terraces which were higher than the surrounding buildings. The same adaptation is seen in Egypt. The Edfu Temple is an outstanding example. The Egyptians never copied the details of the Sumerian invention of writing rather they being influenced by it reinvented it from the scratch for their different language, writing materials, and their aesthetic and religious purposes.

DO YOU WANT TO BE LIKE CONFUCIUS SOMEDAY? WHY? OR WHY NOT?
shusha [124]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Yes, I would like to have some attributes shown by the great Confucius because he had the mental discipline, the high values in everything he did, and the will to live and teach by the example, overcoming many temptations and teaching other Chinese people how to leave in peace and harmony.

That is why I want to emulate part of his example when lived in ancient China.

Let's remember that Confucious lived during the Han Dynasty(206 BCE-220 CE), and Confucianism was the dominant ideology. The Analects is a collection of quotes and anecdotes that it is believed were compiled by Confucius followers. A collection of aphorisms, maxims, and different anecdotes, probably but not certainly compiled by Confucius' students and is considered a reliable source of Confucius’ view.
