How was king Louis XIV forcing nobles to live at the palace of Versailles an example of absolute power?
igomit [66]
He started building the Hall of Mirrors which was about expanding Versailles so that it could house all the nobles from his court. He did this because he believed that they would be under his watchful eye and would not be able to plot against the throne. This was an example of absolute power because nobody would be allowed to say no and nobody would be allowed to do anything not approved by the king.

A government policy that sharply raises taxes, a dramatic decline in the birth rate, and a lengthy war all contribute to _______
masha68 [24]

Answer:  A. decreased population

Details:

An article by Brittany De Lea for <em>Fox Business </em>(Jan. 2, 2019) notes that the "states where populations have grown the fastest over the past year include a handful with either low, or no, state income taxes."  Her report goes on to say: "On the other hand, in some higher-tax states, populations actually shrank. In New York, for example, where state income taxes extend up to 8.82 percent, 48,510 people left the state."  Over 45,100 people also left Illinois, where the state income taxes recently increased by 25%.

A <em>BBC</em> article by James Gallagher (November 9, 2018) explains the connection between declining rates of women having children and decreased population.  "The total fertility rate is the average number of children a woman gives birth to in their lifetime.  ... Whenever a country's rate drops below approximately 2.1 then populations will eventually start to shrink."  The study on which Gallagher was reporting found that half of the countries in the world have fallen below that 2.1 fertility rate and may, as a result, eventually see population decline.

A lengthy war will have obvious detrimental effects on a nation's population.  In World War II, for instance, a total of over 70 million people were killed, which was  3% of the 1940 world population.  The USSR alone lost over 26 million people (soldiers and civilians) during that war, which was nearly 14% of its 1940 population.

The federal should be appointed. Being appointed means it stacks the court in a specific view of point but it also means you can be fired at the whim of the current administration.
