The Reflection Group’s vision for NATO in 2030 is one of an Alliance defined by vitality, utility, relevance, and endurance. By the end of the decade, no matter the strategic environment, NATO will:
• Uphold its role as the bedrock of peace, stability, and the rule of law in the Euro-Atlantic area;
• Remain the strategic centre of gravity for collective defence of all its members on the basis of an up-to-date Strategic Concept;
• Strengthen its role as the unique and essential forum to which Allies turn on all major national security challenges, proactively seeking to forge consensus and build common strategies for dealing with common threats;
• Play a larger part in an international order in which open societies can flourish and be secure and prosperous; a world in which a plurality of worldviews and fundamental differences of opinion are no obstacle to dialogue and cooperation;
• Enjoy deeper strategic and mutually reinforcing con- nections with partners that share these principles and aspirations, affirming the Helsinki Final Act principle that all states have the right to choose their security arrangements; and, where partnership is not possible, a commitment to work towards shared security on the basis of mutual respect;
• Possess a stronger relationship and intensify consulta- tion on issues of common concern with the European Union built on the foundations of cooperation, with a view to taking advantage of different capabilities and toolkits.
Actually both a) and b) are correct.
About A): the two groups should be identical (but not the same, i.e. have the same attributes), only the treatment of them - the independent variable should be different.
But the one option to choose is b: The control group is identical to each test group except for one variable. This is the independent variable.
Weather is rain and snow climate is temperatures, mountains, deserts etc...
The correct answer is C. Both empires were divided into smaller city states and each of those was governed by a king. In the Mayan Empire the royal family exercised a lot more power thanin the Aztec and this could be said to come close to oligarchy but in essence both empires were closer to a monarchy.
