Gnesinka [82]3 years ago

The writers of the US Constitution put into practice the idea of separation of powers by establishing three branches of government: the executive (responsible for the enforcement of laws), the legislative (responsible for the passage of laws), and the judicial (responsible for the deliberation of laws). These separate powers then became imbued with the system of checks and balances where no single branch can act completely independently from the other. Take, for example, the appointment of Supreme Court judges. 

Appointing a Supreme Court judge is a responsibility of the President, the head of the executive branch. The president will pick a judge thereby influencing the judicial branch. However, the choice must first be ratified by the legislative branch, thereby giving them a deal of power in deciding who is going to become a Supreme Court judge. So there you can see that all branches have a role in this process, none of which can occur without the other branch having an impact.

In 980 AD became the prince of Kiev He converted to orthodox Christianity to unify his people
Rama09 [41]

Correct Answer: Vladimir the Great

Vladimir the Great was the Grand Prince of Kiev from 980 until the day he died in 1015. Although he was not the first to introduce Christianity into the Kievan Rus region (today Ukraine and Russia), he was the one who cemented it as the majoritarian religion in the area after his baptism in 988, ordering the end of paganism in the area (not without certain opposition). He unified most of this region unider his mandate.

As for the reason he chose Orthodox Christianity, it is somewhat shrouded in legend. The popular tale says that he sent emissaries to learn about the religions of neighboring. When they came back, he didn't like what he heard about the restrictions Islam and Judaism imposed, and he didn't find anything interesting in what was said of Westen Christianity. Instead, he was marveled by his emissaries tales of the Orthodox temples, as they said "they didn't know whether they were in heaven or Earth". As for the more historically accurate version, it is said that he converted in part as part of a military pact.

Where can I find help obtaining images and contributions/achievements of the Gupta Empire on Medicine, mathematics, technology a
Marianna [84]

Answer:

hey you!

Explanation:

The Gupta Empire was one of the greatest political and military empires in the history of India. It was ruled by the Gupta dynasty between 320 and 550 AD. C. and occupied most of northern India and current East Pakistan and Bangladesh. Under this empire, there was a period of peace and prosperity that favored the development of Indian culture from an artistic, literary and scientific point of view.

Math

Indian numbering is the first numbering system with base ten positional notation. It is believed that Aryabhata was the first mathematician to use the concept of zero.

The astronomers of this period postulated heliocentric theory and studied eclipses, both solar and lunar, explaining them as shadows cast on Earth.

Medicine

The famous Susruta is a Sanskrit text with the main concepts of Ayurvedic medicine (Ayurveda is the name of traditional Indian medicine. It has as a common goal the unification of body-mind and spirit, proclaiming that disease and health are the result of the confluence of three main aspects of existence or doshas) and innovative chapters on surgery. Doctors invented several medical instruments that allowed expanding the number of operations.

Religion

In the religious aspect the Hindu ideas correspond to a large extent to this period, perhaps it is in the time of the Gupta, thanks to the Buddhist influence, that Hinduism came to tolerate the most diverse, and even antagonistic, opinions within its belief system . The elements inherent to Hinduism, which distinguish it from other beliefs, are the caste regime (varna) as a social order and certain rites to which, according to its class, all members of each caste are inseparably linked.

According to Hindu beliefs, the cosmos is eternal in itself, but it is in a state of permanent evolution, while all animated beings, from deities to a simple herb, have an immortal soul (ātmā) coated with the body matter

At the top of his pantheon are the three supreme gods - Brahmā, Vishnú and Shivá -, which are grouped into a triad (Trimurti, in addition to worshiping numerous deities, demigods, local divinities, demonic beings, as well as various supernatural forces). that manifest in nature (rivers, animals, stones, mountains, plants, etc.).

After the backward movement of Buddhism and the restoration of Hinduism, the Gupta society was still divided by the ancient system of four yati or varna (castes):

• bráhmanas: religious authorities (priestly caste)

• chatrías, civil and military authorities

• vaishias: landowners, ranchers, farmers and merchants

• shudrás: lower caste, to which the slaves belonged (although they could be killed, they could not be sold or occupied in "impure" jobs, destined for the chandalas) and peasants.

Outside the varna system would be the "untouchables" or "pariah" ("chandalas" or "arhijans"), hunters, sweepers and body incinerators.

The prosperity of the cities during the Gupta period allowed artisans to group into corporations according to the trade, whose most opulent individuals formed a kind of bourgeoisie.

Technology

Guptas' scientists discovered that there were seven planets in the solar system. They also created the technology that was able to help them detect eclipses of the sun and moon. Arybhata was one of the most famous scientists in the Gupta Empire: I determined that Earth rotates on an axis and revolves around the sun.
