Answer:

The correct answer is D) he participants wanted to emphasize their displeasure at Russian annexation of the Crimean Peninsula.

Explanation:

In 2014, the 40th G7 summit took place in Brussels, instead of it's original location of Moscow, Russia.

Interestingly, the 39th Summit was the G8 summit which consisted of 8 of the world's most powerful countries. However, after the Russian intervention and annexation of Crimea, it was expelled from the G8 group.

As the 40th summit drew closer, the Prime Minister of Britain made it clear that the next summit would not be held in Russia and he was rallying all other members to boycott Russia.

Eventually, Brussels in Belgium was chosen as the location. Since then, all other G7 summits have excluded Russia.

Explain how the Reformation led to political conflict and warfare during the 1500s.
bixtya [17]
<span>Many believed the Church needed to be reformed. In the 1500s Kings such as Charles V had a sole political strategy: centralisation. This 'centralisation' included forming one State religion throughout the empire. However followers of Calvin and Luther (generally Protestants) were not very pleased with this. God was in their eyes more important than the sovereign. A King strenghtening his centralisation policy of setting Catholicism as the sole religion, consequently sparked political conflicts in the empire as well. For example, the area what we nowadays call Germany existed in that time from seperate semi-sovereign areas headed by a so-called 'elector'. Electors chose the ruling emperor/king. In 1555 the Peace of Augsburg was signed as a direct effect of the wars between the ultimate sovereign and the semi-sovereign electors. Charles V agreed upon the division of religion within his empire ("cuius regio, eius religio"): the ruler dictated the religion of the ruled in the seperate areas that made up the Holy Roman Empire (HRE). So, the reformation led to warfare because of different ideas by the ruler and his people. That led to political conflict mainly because the people also didn't agree with the ruler's centralisation policy.</span>

Which of these issues was addressed by the Carter administration?
podryga [215]

Answer:

<h2>Welfare reform</h2>

Explanation:

In his campaign, Jimmy Carter had frequently asserted, ""If I'm elected president, you're going to have welfare reform next year."  He promised to replace the problems of the existing system with one that would encourage work and family life, and that would "reflect both the competence and compassion of the American people."  In August, 1977, President Jimmy Carter announced his proposals for reforming the welfare system in the United States.  

However, President Carter's plan did not win support in Congress, and in fact never received a vote in Congress.

So welfare reform most definitely was a key issue for the Carter administration and addressed by his administration, but his reform plans were not enacted into law.

Note: The same thing could also be said about tax reform.  The Carter administration proposed tax reform legislation which also was rejected by Congress.
