Why was the kennedy administration nicknamed camelot

History
1 answer:
Bingel [31]3 years ago
4 0
The idea of "Camelot" called to mind an ideal sort of place, almost like a fairy tale existence.  The original "Camelot," of course, was the court of the fabled King Arthur of England and his Knights of the Round Table.

Jackie Kennedy, the wife and then widow of President John F. Kennedy, is the one who originated the reference to the Kennedy time in the White House as "Camelot."  She made that reference in an interview for LIFE magazine after her husband's assassination.  She was trying to call to mind the high, idealistic principles of King Arthur of Camelot, comparing that to what her husband JFK had wanted to accomplish as president.

Kublai Khan was successful in which of the following during his time as the Great Khan?
katen-ka-za [31]

B. He conquered the last of the Song Dynasty and brought China under Mongol rule.

Explanation:

Kublai Khan is one of the best known Mongol rulers, both for good and for bad. He was the grandson of Genghis Khan, and unlike his grandfather and father, he ruled in a manner that promoted tolerance among the different groups of people. One of the things by which Kublai Khan is best known is that he was the first Mongol to conquer and rule all of China.

Kublai Khan managed to conquer the last independent Chinese state, the Song Dynasty, incorporated it into the Mongol Empire, and formed the Yuan Dynasty. While this was seen as a great success and promised a long lasting and powerful empire, Kublai Khan also made some mistakes (mostly military ones) that actually started off the decline of the empire.
