History
1 answer:
UNO [17]2 years ago
5 0

The first, known as the Calendar Round, was based on two overlapping annual cycles: a 260-day sacred year and a 365-day secular year. Under this system, each day was assigned four pieces of identifying information: a day number and day name in the sacred calendar and a day number and month name in the secular calendar. Every 52 years counted as a single interval, or Calendar Round. After each interval the calendar would reset itself like a clock.


The Maya strongly believed in the influence of the cosmos on daily life. Consequently, Mayan knowledge and understanding of celestial bodies was advanced for their time: For example, they knew how to predict solar eclipses. They also used astrological cycles to aid in planting and harvesting and developed two calendars that are as precise as those we use today.

How did most people feel about senator clay when he suggested the Missouri compromise?
marin [14]

Answer:

Henry Clay Sr. was an American attorney and was Kentucky’s representative in both the Senate and House.

The Missouri compromise by Senator Clay involves admitting Maine to the United States as a free state while at the same time having Missouri as a slave state.

The Northerners and Southerners probably had the strong feeling that Clay was only working to solve the problems in ways in which he best knew how to.

What would you have done if you were the monarch of France at the time to remedy considering long term & Short term causes o
den301095 [7]

Answer:

I would try to reason with the people, cut back on the lavish lifestyle and put that money towards the common people. Obviously like and monarch I would want to stay in my position of power, but I would try to learn to use my power and wealth for good rather than live a life of luxury while the people of my nation suffer. The French revolution was in a way a good thing to happen for what was going on, but it very well could have been avoided if the monarch had just listened.

Monarchs shouldn't  give huge amount of power, and if they are it needs to still be regulated on what they can and cannot do.
