Athens?
History

devlian [24]3 years ago

A citizen of US has a much better chance in participation.

Explanation:

The democracy of Athens, as loosely as one can state it was heavily skewed for the elite class and they were the ones voting as well as deciding what would be done in their society.

This makes the government very restricted and ultimately in the hand of a few people.

Compare this to US, and virtually anyone who tries and has a certain amount of luck along with a penchant for administration has a chance to contest and win elections in US for some position.

All US citizen are entitled to vote and vote for multiple issues many times a year.

The argument over _______ divided the christian church.
LenKa [72]
The problem with Christianity isn't the religion itself, but the fact that its members are all human.
Originally, there was one Church, what we now know as the Catholic Church. However, during the 1500s, the priests of the time were corrupt (as mankind tends to be) and were charging people money in order to forgive them of their sins (as it was, nobody needed a priest to forgive them, but the people didn't know because they didn't have bibles).

And so, in 1517, Martin Luther published Ninety-Five Thesis, critiquing the Church, and soon the Church was divided between Protestant and Catholics. All the other denominations you see out there come from Protestantism.

None is better than the other. While I feel that the Protestant reformation was necessary, that does not mean that modern Catholics are necessarily bad. There are corrupt people in all churches. Meanwhile, the Christian community is supposed to be acting as one body, so any hostility you see between denominations is, by Christian standards, wrong.

The Tet Offensive was the turning point of the Vietnam War and showed the military strength of North Vietnam
o-na [289]

Actually Tet was more of a political victory for the North.  They launched a surprise attack on South Vietnam during the Tet holiday on January 30, 1968.  They attacked not only military targets but towns and cities.  Communist forces managed to storm the U.S. Embassy.  Though a counterattack enabled the U.S. regain the territories assaulted by the North, the reaction at home was so negative that support for American involvement in the States dropped.  This led to the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Vietnam and eventually the North conquered the South.

How did the Baroque style and the neoclassical (or roccoco) style<br> differ?
Natali [406]

Answer:

Rococo and Neoclassicism are two different styles in European art. Rococo is a style of the 18th century. In Rococo paintings, the subjects are often the loves of the Greek gods, loosely painted with attention to highlights and shadows and not so much to clear outlines or textures. In Neoclassical paintings, the subjects may be the stern moral lessons of Roman history, painted with crisp contours and contrasting textures
