, Elizabeth was very successful in dealing with threats to her throne, thanks to her advisors such as Lord Burghley. She was also a determined and clever woman, who always made wise decisions as evidenced by the way she handled her marriage. Her decision to use ‘Middle Way’ to deal with the conflict between the Protestants and Catholics had saved her from the possibility of a civil war. The victory over the ‘invincible’ Spanish Armada was another proof of her intelligence.
I'm not sure about the first one but,
Philip Hamilton was killed in a duel by George I. Eacker.
Hamilton did not want to die because he and Burr were dueling in the same place Philip had died, and he did not want to leave behind the rest of his family, including his wife Eliza.
There's a lot of this info in the second act of the Hamilton Musical Soundtrack, if you need more help.
Between 1895 and 1898 Cuba and the Philippine Islands revolted against Spain. The Cubans gained independence, but the Filipinos did not. In both instances the intervention of the United States was the culminating event.
In 494 BC the plebians detached and formed their own plebian council. they elected tribunes to protect their rights; with the tribunes they could not vote against unjust laws passed by patricians/the senate. the citizen assembly elected consuls, tribunes, and magistrates, could declare war and ratify peace treaties, and could approve or disapprove laws proposed by the Senate. They created laws that said patricians could no longer rule unjustly against them. Debt bondage was gone, priesthood was available, plebians could be in the Senate - but laws of the Senate apply to all while the citizen assembly's laws only apply to the plebians. (youre lucky im in class w/ my notebook rn lol)
