The Whig theory, put into place after the Glorious Revolution, put a premium on the idea of civic virtue, placing the public good above personal interest. To promote such virtue, one needed a society in which property ownership was widespread. An agricultural nation, where farming was thought to encourage honesty, frugality, and independence, was less likely to become corrupt than a society dependent on commerce and manufacturing. In an agrarian society, politics would be less fractious because everyone's interest would be similar. In such a society representatives would be less fractious because everyone's interest would be similar. In such a society representatives would be equally affected by whatever laws they passed. This would prevent them from tyrannizing over the people by passing oppressive laws.
<span>The Whig view of politics was not democratic. It assumed that only men who owned property had a sufficient permanent stake in society to be trusted to vote.</span>

MAVERICK [17]

The correct option is B) Stone, Bronze, Iron

There are three ages: Stone Age, Bronze Age and Iron Age. These ages are divided chronologically according to the material with which tools were created: We have the Stone Age in first place since stone was used to make implements. This age is a pre historic period between 8700 and 2000 BCE. In the second place we have the Bronze Age, in which bronze was mainly used to create tools. During this age, early characteristics of urban civilization were found. And finally, we have the Iron Age. During this period, tools and weapons were made of carbon steel (ironworking).

The system of dividing the ages in 3 categories was created by C.J. Thomsen in order to classify objects according to the material with which they were created.
