History

Answer:

Quakerism

Explanation:

The Quakers are a religious group emerged in England in 1647 as a dissent from the Anglican Church. One of the pillars of the faith of the Quakers is the belief there is no need to create a clerical organization, then all faithful are ministers of God. The Quakers lived in recollection and preached the practice of pacifism, solidarity and philanthropy. In order to guarantee their moral purity, they also defended, let alone moderate, attitudes: they refused to pay tithes to the official church, to take oath before the magistrates in the courts or to pay tribute to authorities, including the king. They were still refusing to do military service and take part in wars.

They presented original ideas in 17th-century English absolutist society, and for this reason, they were eventually persecuted by Charles II. For this reason, a large part of the Quakers emigrated to the United States, where, led by William Penn, they created the colony of Pennsylvania in 1681.

Which of the following did Austria-Hungary demand of Serbia in its ultimatum? an end to all anti-Austrian agitation and punishme
UNO [17]

Answer:

the answer is B

Explanation:

Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy were in an alliance together known as the Triple Alliance. This was an agreement between the empires to provide support to each other in case of a Russian declaration of war against them. Serbia was an ally to Russia and so Austria felt that the Serbians helped the Bosnians carry out the assassination. Ferdinand's uncle was emperor of Austria at the time and felt that this was a direct attack on their country. When he went to Kaiser Otto von Bismarck of Germany, Germany agreed to intervene against any Russian threats or threats from their allies. In this case, Germany gave Austria permission to send demands to Serbia to repay them, which they refused to comply with. At the same time, Russia was gathering their army to come to Serbia's aid, which Austria also saw as a direct threat and declared war on Serbia. This culminated in World War I.
