Which punishment is the most likely consequence for a person found guilty in

History

Answer:

A. A prison sentence

Explanation:

A felony is the most serious type of crime. The term felony is not uniform throughout the United States, while the federal government defines felony as a crime with a punishment of more than one year, states are less strict about the definition. Maine and New Jersey do not classify their criminal offenses at all. Some states use the term felony, but do not define it.

However, most states, 43 in all, use and define the term typically by reference to either the length of a sentence or the place of incarceration, sometimes both. For instance, Idaho defines a felony as "a crime punishable by death or by imprisonment in the State prison", while Georgia defines the term as "a crime punishable by death, imprisonment for life, or imprisonment for more than 12 months." Still, other states will define felony by reference to the length of sentence and the place the sentence will be served.

Typically, though a sentence of more than one year that will be served in a state or federal prison will be considered a felony. As with misdemeanors, Federal law breaks down classifications for felonies using sentencing guidelines by the amount of prison time.

One result of the Sepoy Mutiny was that?
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

O b. The British government tightened its control over India.

Explanation:

The 1857 Sepoy Mutiny or the Indian Mutiny was the unsuccessful revolt of the Indians against the British regime. This revolt was also known as the first war of Independence, resulting in the bloody and violent loss for the Indian troops.

The Indians were unhappy to be under the Britishers. With different approaches to try to get their liberty, the people would rebel against the empire. One such event is the Sepoy Mutiny where the 'hired' Indians were unhappy about the many issues, be it racial discrimination, religious disregard, low pay, etc. Though the revolt started with the issue of how to grease their guns (with animal fat) which was great against the religious beliefs of the Hindu and Muslim Indians, it would only lead to a bloody encounter and was successfully quelled by the Britishers. This event led the British government to tighten or restrict the freedom and rights enjoyed by the Indians.

Thus, the correct answer is option b.

compare and contrast lenin's idealistic vision of a socialist state with the reality of communism in the new soviet union
allsm [11]

Lenin was a Marxist, as were his successors. He had a vision of making the Soviet Union a country where everyone will be equal, earning the same amount of money, everything will be available to everyone, the country to be self-sustainable. While this may seem as a nice idea, in practice in turned the total opposite. The Soviet Union became one huge concentration camp where around 30 million people lost their lives because they had another political opinion, belong to certain ethnic group, and were people that had it better and succeeded in life. The people were poor, often suffering from malnutrition because of the misjudged planning of the high officials. The economy was not in good condition and was developing very slowly. The country was ruled by a dictator that used violence in order to sort all the problems.
