I would say that the spread of democracy led to the industrial revolution because it enabled everyone to start their own businesses, thus establishing a capitalistic society whose economy was governed by industrialists.
In my opinion both are important so I couldn’t give a answer but freedom of speech is a all in all good answer because a person has the right to give what they think and they should be able to give their honest thought in important situations. Hope this helps!!
Answer:
It was controversial because a lot of people who were on Lusitania were American citizens. Of course, many people believed that United States had to react on this by proclaiming war on Germany, a country that destroyed the boat. Still, Wilson and Congress believed that the time to wage war has not yet come.
Explanation:
When Germans sunk Lusitania, 128 American citizens died. It made American public furious. Still, president Wilson believed that America should stay out of conflict at least for the time to come. This was quite controversial as public believed that he closed his eyes to the killing of American civilians.
I discovered that a key moment in Roman history was a very little-discussed raid by pirates on the Port of Rome at Ostia.
Rome was at that point the dominant world superpower, and there was no state in the world that would ever have dared to attack Rome. But the Romans were attacked by a group of stateless desperados who set fire to the Port. The flames may well have been visible in Rome itself. And this sent a shockwave through Rome, because if pirates could strike that close to the imperial capital, nowhere was safe.
And in this panicky atmosphere - an atmosphere of panic, I might say, which was deliberately whipped up by ambitious politicians - the Roman people took a series of fatal steps, surrendering some of their liberties and some of their control over their government. And in doing so, they sewed the seeds of the destruction of their own democracy.
And the more I looked at that event, the more it seemed familiar to me and the parallel with 9/11 - and in particular the response to it.
