Answer:

A: diseños ornamentales con líneas fluidas

Explanation:

The arabesques refers to the ornament of vegetal geometric figures and extravagant patterns that mimic shapes of leaves, flowers, fruits, ribbons, animals, and almost always appear on the walls of certain Arab constructions, such as mosques considered as a pictorial art.

Examples of decoration with arabesque are the Mihrab of the Mosque of Cordoba or the Alhambra of Granada. It was also used in Mudejar art, as can be seen on the facade of the palace of Pedro I, of the Alcazar of Seville.

However, the arabesque is much older than Islamic art. It appears in Egyptian and Assyrian monuments; also in some Etruscans, Greeks and Romans. In the Middle Ages, it was used in all kinds of ornaments, and in the Renaissance it was widely used in Italy.

Write a paragraph discussing how the war in Europe affected the relationship between Congress and the president.
siniylev [52]

Through the many wars and peace congresses of the 18th century, European diplomacy strove to maintain a balance between five great powers: Britain, France, Austria, Russia, and Prussia. At the century’s end, however, the French Revolution, France’s efforts to export it, and the attempts of Napoleon I to conquer Europe first unbalanced and then overthrew the continent’s state system. After Napoleon’s defeat, the Congress of Vienna was convened in 1814–15 to set new boundaries, re-create the balance of power, and guard against future French hegemony. It also dealt with international problems internationally, taking up issues such as rivers, the slave trade, and the rules of diplomacy. The Final Act of Vienna of 1815, as amended at the Congress of Aix-la-Chapelle (Aachen) in 1818, established four classes of heads of diplomatic missions—precedence within each class being determined by the date of presentation of credentials—and a system for signing treaties in French alphabetical order by country name. Thus ended the battles over precedence. Unwritten rules also were established. At Vienna, for example, a distinction was made between great powers and “powers with limited interests.” Only great powers exchanged ambassadors. Until 1893 the United States had no ambassadors; like those of other lesser states, its envoys were only ministers.
