The Hellenistic Period (or Hellenism) was a time in history between the 3rd and 2nd centuries BC when the Greeks came under the rule of the Macedonian Empire.

Greek influence was so great that, after the fall of the Empire, Hellenistic culture continued to predominate in all territories previously dominated by them.

Between the 2nd and 1st centuries BC, the Hellenistic kingdoms were gradually conquered by the Romans.

The <u>expansionist movement</u> promoted by Alexander was responsible for the spread of Greek culture in the East, founding cities (several times named after Alexandria) that became true centers for the spread of Greek culture in the East.

Greek elements ended up merging with local cultures. This process was called Hellenism and Greek culture mixed with Eastern elements gave rise to Hellenistic Culture, in a reference to the name as the Greeks called themselves - Hellenes.

In the <u>Mathematics</u> of Hellenism, Euclid and Archimedes stood out, who developed Geometry. Euclides used Geometry in his Physics studies. Physics (mechanics) also deserved special attention from Archimedes, making it possible to invent new weapons for attack and defense.

In <u>Astronomy</u>, Aristarchus and Hipparchus stood out in an attempt to measure the diameter of the Earth and the distances from our planet to the Sun and the Moon. Aristarchus launched the heliocentric hypothesis, that is, that the earth and planets revolved around the Sun , which was not accepted at the time.

djyliett [7]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Some historians have argued that the American Revolution was not revolutionary in nature. Instead of fostering revolutionary change, it maintained continuity.

I think that the American Revolution was a genuine revolutionary movement stemmed from the anger and desperation of the American colonists that suffered many grievances from the British government.

The 13 American colonies had to pay heavy taxation such as the Navigation Acts, the Stamp Acts, the Tea Act. The worst part was that Colonists did not have any voice or representation in the English Parliament.

That is why colonists created secret groups such as the Sons of Liberty and people like Samuel Adams united other colonists against the English crown.  

It is true that there were also some particular agendas inside the revolutionary movement, specifically, economic ones. But in essence, for me, it was a true independence movement.
