A direct democracy may allow a majority to dominate and silence a minority. This kind of problem can be remedied by providing all citizens with basic rights. Freedom of speech and freedom of religion are examples of basic rights.

In Europe, kings sometimes claimed that their power was from God. They ruled by divine right.

The Holocaust was the killing of millions of Jews and others during Hitler’s rule over Germany. Hitler ruled under a dictatorship.

<span>1. A direct democracy involves democracy in its purest form. All individuals participate at an equal level. This means that all people vote on every single aspect. A drawback of this is when a society becomes too large and it is difficult to keep track of all of the votes or to find a common ground among the people. This can be resolved by having home ballots so that people can mail in their votes. 2. The divine right of kings is the idea that the king was in that position as a direct result of God's will and God's doing. 3. The Holocaust was a mass genocide of Jewish people, LGBTQ, and others. It originated in Germany and was perpetuated by the Nazi party.</span>

About when did city states develop in Sumer ( in B.C.E )​
loris [4]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>When multiple states were conquered which were far from each other, to make control effective, the Sumerian city- states were developed. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Due to lack of transportation and technologies at that time, it was challenging to run a larger empire. <em>Due to the larger area, the control was limited to a limited area, especially cities. </em>

Leaders like Sargon of Akkad were able to conquer multiple city states. Also, they gathered multiple bureaucracies and used them to administer the conquered city states. <em>Thus, in such way the city states started to develop in Summer.</em>

How did Roosevelt's lend lease act shift US foreign policy away from isolationism? ?
Jlenok [28]
Roosevelt's Lend Lease Act actually was in regards to the internal security of the United States of America. United States of America did lend ships and other war equipments to countries like France, United Kingdom, China etc in favor of leases on the army bases and ports of Allied territories during the time of war. No money was charged by United states, but after the war was over equipments such as ships were needed to be returned.
