Answer:

Old English was the first aspect of the English language spoken in the region of England, mainly between the 5th and 10th centuries.

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

The earliest version of the temple (a temenos) antedated the Ionic immigration by many years, and dates to the Bronze Age. Callimachus, in his Hymn to Artemis, attributed it to the Amazons. In the 7th century BC, it was destroyed by a flood. Its reconstruction, in more grandiose form, began around 550 BC, under Chersiphron, the Cretan architect, and his son Metagenes. The project was funded by Croesus of Lydia, and took 10 years to complete. This version of the temple was destroyed in 356 BC by Herostratus in an act of arson.

What is the 100th day of the calendar year (start at January 1st)

vesna_86 [32]

The following leap day is really on February 29th, 2016 (this year).
This implies we need to include an additional day toward the end of February every 4 years.
As you might know, the 28th is generally the most recent day of February, however because of the leap day, we add an additional day to make the general days of one year 366 rather than the standard 365.
During the current year (2016) the 100th day of the year is on April ninth.
On a 365 days calander, the 100th day of the year is on April tenth.

How and why did the Federalists seem to overreact to the emergence of the Republicans as powerful contenders for national favor?

meriva

The Federalists, a group made up of merchants, bankers, manufacturers, wealthy farmers, plantation owners, in other words, well-educated citizens; thought that Republicans were uneducated and a second class citizens. At Government level, those two groups were represented by Jefferson and Hamilton. Hamilton believed that elite should rule, in comparison to Jefferson who thought that a common man was capable of self-control.

Having this said, the Federalist did not want the Republicans to vote or have any voice in the new nation that was born. A few years later, both parties went to elections and in 1706 the Federalist won the elections. But in 1800, Republicans beat the Federalists and Jefferson became president of the United States. And 1812 a war took place, the Federalists vs the Republicans, and the Federalist party disappeared as a result of their defeat.
