Answer: C) George III's rejection of the Olive Branch Petition

Explanation: There were a number of reasons why the Second Continental Congress changed their stance over time. They had wanted to stop the fighting with Great Britain and reach a peace and understanding. However, George III's rejection of the Olive Branch Petition- their attempt at a peace- forced them to reconsider that stance. Also a factor was George III's decision to hire Prussian mercenaries- known as Hessians- against the colonists.

How is a monarchy different from a theocracy?
Nesterboy [21]
A monarchy is a type of government ruled by a hereditary ruler, such as a king or queen. A theocracy, on the other hand, is a system where a small group of religious leaders rule in the name of a god. A monarch who claims the divine right of kings uses their religion to justify their position of power. (See image: Courtesy of tvtropes.org) A monarch can claim to rule by god's will, but doesn't have to be a religious leader.

How is Pyrrhus a foil to Hamlet?.
Juli2301 [7.4K]

In many ways, Pyrrhus is a foil to Hamlet. For example, Pyrrhus is impulsive and rash, while Hamlet is contemplative and indecisive.

What is Pyrrhus?
Pyrrhus was a Hellenistic-era Greek king and statesman. He was the Aeacid royal house's king of the Greek Molossians tribe before succeeding to the throne of Epirus. He was regarded as being one of the greatest generals in ancient times and was one of early Rome's strongest adversaries. He suffered intolerably high losses in a number of his victories, giving rise to the phrase "Pyrrhic victory." 13-year-old Pyrrhus had become king of Epirus in 306 BC, but Cassander overthrew him four years later. He participated in the Diadochi Wars before being helped by Ptolemy I Soter to retake his throne in 297 BC. In the course of what became known as the Pyrrhic War,

Additionally, Pyrrhus is vengeful and driven by a desire for revenge, while Hamlet is more concerned with justice. Finally, Pyrrhus is single-minded in his pursuit of his goals, while Hamlet is easily distracted.
