Answer:

The approach to contact with the supernatural was through a complex calendar of great ceremonies, which were held at the temples and were performed by a professional priesthood that acted as the intermediary between the gods and human beings. Many of these were public in the sense that the populace played the role of spectators. Elements in all the ceremonies were very similar and included ritual ablutions to prepare the priests for the contact; offerings and sacrifices to gain the gods’ favour; and theatrical dramas of myths by masked performers in the form of dances, songs, and processionals. Each god had his special ceremony that, considering the richness of the pantheon, must have filled the calendar. These ceremonies must have played a significant recreative function, as do ceremonies held in honour of patron saints in present-day Mexico.

Which of the following describes how Diocletian affected the Roman Empire?
Kamila [148]
"He built a second capital in the East, which led to the division of the Empire" would be the best way to describe how Diocletian affected the Roman Empire, since it had grown to a state where managing it under a single entity was too difficult.

Answer:

Smith

Explanation:

Although Jones won more votes from the people when added all together, Smith won more electoral votes. In state A Smith was voted the most so he won 10 electoral votes and in State B Jones was voted more and won 9 electoral votes. Since 10 votes is larger than 9 Smith won. Basically Smith won the most votes in a state that had more people so more electoral votes in total, and because of that he got more electoral votes which resulted in his victory.
