The empires of Ghana, Mali and Songhai were located in areas that were conducive to the development of great empires. These empires covered a large extension of land with very different weather and ecosystems, including the Sahara desert and the thick jungles south of the Niger River. The fact that the empires had been established in such diverse locations meant that they had an availability of natural resources that translated into wealth. Moreover, the empires benefitted from the trans-African trade, having an open route to the markets of Europe and the world.

Lilit [14]

Answer:

C. a wealthy backcountry settler in Virginia

Explanation:

In 1673, he arrived from England to Virginia, where he acquired two plantations in the western territories bordering with the Indians. Protecting the interests of planters and farmers whose lands were in the west of the colony, he demanded decisive action by the colony administration to oust and exterminate the Indians, criticizing the governor and his entourage for their passivity and unwillingness to lose income from profitable trade with the Indian tribes. For disobedience to the governor, Nathaniel Bacon was declared a rebel. In the summer of 1676 he captured the capital of the colony - Jamestown - and forced the legislative assembly of the colony to adopt a series of decrees known as the Bacon's Laws.

4. Should government decision making be extended to all areas of life including
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

No. The government should only regulate what is necessary, and as long as it respects human rights while doing so.

When the government makes decisions regarding household life, education, and the workplace, the government can easily become totalitarian. A tolalitarian government is very dangerous as exemplified by real-life examples such as Hitler's Germany or modern-day North Korea. (In fiction, the subject of a totalitarian government is also treated in the famous novel 1984).
