The historian Procopius attributes this speech to Theodora. She supposedly said it to Justinian when he wanted to flee from the

Nika Riots.
"Now if you wish to save yourself, O Emperor, this is not hard. For we have much money; there is the sea, here are the boats. But think whether after you have been saved you may not come to feel that you would have preferred to die. As for me, I like a certain old proverb that says: royalty is a good shroud (burial garment)."
—History of the Wars, Procopius

Which of the following reflects Theodora’s attitude about dealing with the Nika Riots?
It is too dangerous to flee the rioters.
It is shameful for an emperor to flee the rioters.
It is politically savvy to flee the rioters.
It is honorable for an emperor to flee the rioters.

The correct answer should be
<span>It is shameful for an emperor to flee the rioters.

Basically, she tells him that it is better to die as royalty and be buried as such than to flee and die like a commoner somewhere else where you are not respected. It would be easier to flee, but better and more honorable if they stayed and died.</span>

Lunna [17]

Correct answer:  B) The population of the newly created Israeli state grew rapidly.

Context/details:

Jewish settlers had been coming into Palestine since the late 1800s.  During the years following World War I, that population stream continued to grow.  

After World War II ended, the United Nations (UN) adopted a plan for the partition of Palestine that would create a portion of that territory as the state of Israel.  Arabs in the region and surrounding Arab nations were not in favor of this.  On May 14, 1948, the Jewish leaders in the land proclaimed their independence as a nation, and a war with Arab peoples and nations in the region followed.  Israel won that war and established itself as a nation.  The new state of Israel was granted membership in the UN in 1949.

In 1950, the Israeli government passed the "Law of Return," which said that "every Jew has the right to come to this country."  In their minds, they were returning to the land of their ancestors.  Many people of Jewish ancestry did go to become citizens of Israel.   At the time that Israel declared its independence in May, 1948, the Israeli population was 806,000.  By 1960, a decade after the Law of Return had passed, the population had more than doubled, to 2.2 million.  By the end of the 20th century a few decades later, Israel's population grew to nearly 6½ million.
