Answer:

Athens was a direct democracy in which citizens voted on laws themselves. In the United States, laws are not voted by citizens, but by Congress.

Explanation:

Athenian democracy emerged as a way of guaranteeing a certain political participation of the citizens and so that the euphrates were not the only ones to make decisions regarding the public thing. This system brought guarantees, but also uncertainties. The solution found was to promote a strategy that could ward off those who posed a threat to Athenian unity.

Unlike the direct democracy that existed in Athens, the United States has an indirect democracy, where the population uses the vote to choose their political representatives who will be responsible for the political decisions of the country. In this way, citizens would be assured of their rights by politicians who would pledge to meet the wishes of their constituents.

Why were those trains allowed to roll unhindered into Poland? Why were the tracks leading to Birkenau never bombed? I have put t
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

Historically, the primary reason the lines leading to Birkenau were never attacked was due to a lack of political resolve to do so, and not because bombing operations were unimportant. When the gas chambers were operational in 1941, the majority of the concentration camps were located out from the range of Allied bombers and German air defenses.

The Allied Forces knew about the detention camps by June 1944, and the German air defenses were on the decline. Bomber efficiency is improving. The railroads were still intact. Every day, thousands of Jewish are processed in these centers.

Historians agree that the Nazis would still murder the Jews even without the concentration camps. The mobile death squads were among the most prolific extermination organizations of the Nazis. Even though the bombs wouldn't halt the murders, the Allied focused on the bombings of military camps and industrial areas in order to undermine Germany's war operations.

Explanation:

Railways were an important component of the Holocaust and Nazi activities. Information on the camps was only accessible after the war had ended. They felt that the costs would exceed the advantages of bombing the railroads. Millions of Jews had already been gassed.

Had the Allied Forces simply bombed the railroads once they had the intelligence, many lives might have been spared. They only needed political will and a commitment to social duty, regardless of the personal dangers, in order to put a stop to the camps' deadly activities.

Soviet forces were the major Allied soldiers in the Eastern Front, where they committed genocide of their own people. Stalin also has anti-Semitic inclinations. We may be certain that he didn't bomb the railroads and let the Germans continue to use the extermination camps.

Hope this helps, if so would you mind saying thanks?

Which statement best illustrates Siddhartha Gautama’s view toward wealth?
34kurt

The BEST answer is:

d. Gautama believed that he could best help others by giving up his wealth.

While there certainly is truth to answer C (as selected by the other respondent), Siddhartha Gautama's view toward wealth was more than a passive realization that it did not bring happiness. Even more so it was an active view that translated into action, giving up one's wealth to benefit others. He said of wealth, "A kind man who makes good use of wealth is rightly said to possess a great treasure; but the miser who hoards up his riches will have no profit."

Siddhartha Gautama is known as "The Buddha" (the "Enlightened One"). The details about his life history are debated by scholars, but we know the historical personage of Siddhartha Gautama as a teacher in ancient India around the 5th or 6th century BC. Buddhism is patterned after his teachings.
