What does it mean the civilisation they encountered?
rewona [7]

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

<u><em>So what is civilisation? In the literal sense it means living in towns, but  I would like to suggest that in modern usage, it tends to embrace the term ‘freedom’, to be involved in what we call ‘democracy’ — though democracy itself is a very slippery term. It is better perhaps to look at the opposite, which is totalitarianism, a long word which denotes a state where the ruler demands not only control over your body, but over your mind too. And it is this demand for control over your mind that marks the totalitarian state, or barbarism. And it is freedom to think that is the essence of civilisation. </em></u>

<u><em> </em></u>

<u><em>This freedom to think has its origin in economics. In a society ruled by an Emperor or Pharaoh, a Dictator who controls everything, you depend on the ruler for your well-being and for the necessities and luxuries of daily life. You are under the control of the ruler, so you switch off your critical facilities and enthusiastically follow the ruler. You are brain-washed (which in practice can be a not unpleasant form of life).  In economics, this is what is known as the gift exchange society where you pay tribute to the ruler, and the ruler in return gives you the essential luxuries of life as ‘gifts’. </em></u>

<u><em> </em></u>

<u><em>But once you get control of your everyday economics, you move into a different form of society which we call civilisation, where you have control of what you buy and how you live –and what you think. Economically, this new form of choice depends on money. The essence of money is that it gives you choice, and when you have choice in your everyday life, and you live in a market economy, this brings about a new way of living which we call civilisation.</em></u>

An astrolabe is an instrument formerly used to make astronomical measurements, typically of the altitudes of celestial bodies, and in navigation for calculating latitude, before the development of the sextant. In its basic form (known from classical times), it consists of a disk with the edge marked in degrees and a pivoted pointer.

Critique the articles of confederation (what are the problems)
nata0808 [166]
Publius claims that citizen "safety" is the first task of all governments. That safety would most likely be threatened by wars with foreign powers or by conflicts between two or among more of the thirteen states. Whether either might occur because of "real or pretended" causes, or because certain circumstances might arise that "provoke or invite them," a single nation composed of all the former colonies was the most likely successfully to meet such challenges. Publius explains that only the population of a single "united states" could provide the a broad enough base from which competent diplomats might be recruited--skills essential to resolving conflicts between nations or states by measures short of physical force. Similarly, a single interpretation from one union of states would be much preferable to several interpretations from various confederacies and certainly far superior to thirteen. Lastly, since smaller states naturally seek to align themselves with strong foreign powers in an effort to discourage larger neighbors from coveting their territory or resources, one union would eliminate still another frequent source of war. War, Publius observes, unfortunately is related to human nature, and nations wage war whenever there is something to be gained.5
