A Story about history, and how it affected us….Before 2012, many people believed that the year 2012 was going to be the end of the world. This prediction was based off of the Mayan Calendar, a primary source of its own, made at ~August 11, 3114 BC. Why is this a primary source? Because the Mayans themselves made the calendar, and based everything off of it. However, rest assure, because the world didn’t end yet. (obviously, because its like what 2017 right now [delete this ()]). Many people believed this to be true, and thousands of people rushed to get ready for this ‘end of the world’. They bought food and water in large quantities (and with their life savings) and waited out in underground shelters. The connotation of the phrase “end of the world” scares many. They never want to think of what or where the world is going, and the end of the world. Instead, they look towards the past, and try to learn lessons from the past so that they do not make the same mistakes today, because if the same mistakes happen today, well, you never know where the world will lead to tomorrow. How do they look towards the past? Well, they do NOT take bits and pieces from different timezones randomly. Instead, researchers try to find history that actually has an effect on today or tomorrow. Take for example, the world wars. People go in chronological order from even before the start of the war to a little after it, to learn of the reasons the war started, what happened during the war, and the consequences of fighting the war, and how it affects people. After that, many people would write nonfiction and fictional stories about it, sometimes adding personification to animals that “viewed” the battle while it was going on. An example of this, is “War Horse”, by Michael Morpurgo, in which a horse by the name of Joey, is given a personification, and tells us of an experience a horse had in real-life history (from a farm animal to a animal that survived WW1). With all of this information that is given to us from history, both the problems, and the resolution, it is up to us to learn what is best for our current situation, and to not make the same mistakes again. <span>

Answer:
Without any rules and regulation in society there would most likely be anarchy and even greater corruption by the few.
It would be total anarchy.
At first it would be fine. People would get along fine. But then someone gets drunk and kills someone else. Then a third person kills the second person.
Finally, a fourth person would try to stop the fight peacefully, he would die, and then everyone would get angry at the person who killed the fourth guy (I know, it’s confusing, but stay with me), and they would kill him.
People would then realise, after the fact no one got in trouble, that they could do whatever they wanted. Large companies wouldn't Have to abide by any laws, so monopolies would occur.
Because there is no government, there would be no official currency. This means coins would be counterfeited and the economy would crash.
There would be environmental damage as well. Without any laws about game, critically endangered animals would die out, causing the ecosystem to fall apart. Overfishing would kill of entire species of fish.
Finally, only small villages would remain, as cities would be to dangerous because of all the pillaging. Seaside towns would die out as overfishing would destroy their food source. small villages would have their own governments and would survive for a couple more decades until bandits came and looted everyone.
By this point, nuclear power plants will of melted, causing extreme damage to what's left of the ecosystem. Bandits would survive the longest, because they’re nomads they'd pillage until there truly was no food left, and then the human race would die.
Hope this helps and if you could mark me as brainliest. Thanks!

Answer:
situational influences; personal dispositions
Explanation:
Situational influences refers to temporary condition that influence people's decision making while personal dispositions refers to concrete motives/principles that influences people's decision making.
People generally believe that we make our decisions (such as purchasing decision) based on personal dispositions along. But if situational influences are manipulated properly, it will influence other people without they even realizing it. This is why people often underestimate its impact.
