The term "democracy" first appeared in ancient Greek political and philosophical thought in the city-state of Athens during classical antiquity. The word comes from demos, "common people" and kratos, strength. Led by Cleisthenes, Athenians established what is generally held as the first democracy in 508–507 BC.
Answer:
Monopolies are a very evil kind of market. When there are many companies producing a good they would produce a certain amount of a product and sell it at a competitive price that would not be too cheap but not be too expensive since if it made it too cheap then nobody would earn money, and if they made it too expensive then their rivals would make money.
But monopolies make a small amount of products that are extremely overpriced for what they are. They can do this since there is no other company to oppose them and they can do whatever they want with the price.
A major goal of the Hutu-led regime in Rwanda in mid-1994 was to (1) eliminate the Tutsi minority. There had been ethnic tensions between the minority Hutu population and the majority Tutsi population, because the Hutus had been favored by the Belgians (who had previously colonized the country) and now held high positions in government and were economically better off. Once the plane of the president of Rwanda was shot down, the genocide began within a few hours.
European religious practices were so restrictive that's what led to the Pilgrims departing for North America (sound familiar now?)
Answer:
Explanation:
I think you really ought to become familiar with the civil rights movement, particularly if you are an American. The issue in the 60s began as an issue that centered around voting.
Let's start with the fact that in the 60s, there was no such thing as on line. Let's also begin by saying that in the 60s, when the colored went to register, they were asked "qualifying questions" that no one knew the answer to, probably not even the person asking them. Things like if you lived in Alabama you might be asked how many counties there were and what are they.
Think of why people might withhold the vote. The colored in many counties outnumbered the whites. They could elect sheriffs council members, judges, and any other elected official.
There are enough problems with voting without adding the need to see who was casting the ballot. Think of what can be done. You can set up an email address for six people and let all six vote.
Voting is a hard fought for right. People have died for it. It's worth a little bit of inconvenience to make sure it is as honest as it can be made.
