<span>B) The United States uses a jury system, but with fewer jurors than were used in ancient Athens.
The courts in ancient Athens were jury courts and were very large. The smallest possible court would have 201 members. The odd number was to prevent ties. So, with that in mind, let's look at the options and see what makes and does not make sense.
A)The United States uses an identical jury system as was used in ancient Athens.
* I don't recall hearing about any 200 member juries at any time in recent history. So this is obviously wrong.
B) The United States uses a jury system, but with fewer jurors than were used in ancient Athens.
* Yes indeed. We do use a jury system, and we use far fewer jurors than ancient Athens.
C)The United States uses a jury system, but with more jurors than were used in ancient Athens.

D)The United States uses judges, but not juries, as used in ancient Athens.
* We use both a judge and jury. So this too, is wrong.</span>

These supplied the legal basis to spur on the latters’ policies for the colonization of China. This development transpired with the eruption of the ‘Arrow Incident’ in October 1856, or the ninth lunar month of the third year of Ansei, according to the Japanese calendar. As a result of this incident, the British military forces burned the Guangzhou (Canton) market area to the ground. Information regarding all of these ‘incidents’ was conveyed to Japan in concrete detail in documents submitted to the shogunate which were based on direct conversations between Opperhoofd (Captain) Donker Curtius and the overseeing officials under the command of the Nagasaki Administrator, Nagamochi Kōjirō, and an assistant overseer.
