Answer:

Boris Nikolayevich Yeltsin was president of the Russian Federation, a position he held between 1991 and 1999. On July 11, 1990, during the celebration of the XXVIII Congress of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, Boris Yeltsin announced his resignation in the CPSU. In the presidential elections of June 1991, Boris Yeltsin, standing as an independent, was elected president of the Soviet Federative Socialist Republic of Russia with 57% of the votes.

He was re-elected in 1996, defeating Gennady Zyuganov of the revived Communist Party. However, Yeltsin never regained his initial popularity after a series of economic and political crises in Russia during the 1990s.

In August 1991, Yeltsin won international applause by promoting himself as a democrat and by challenging the August 1991 coup attempt carried out by hard-line communists in the Soviet government and in the KGB. After the dissolution of the Soviet Union in December 1991, Yeltsin undertook to transform Russia's socialist economy into a free market economy and implemented economic shock therapy, liberalization of prices and privatization programs. Due to the privatization method, a large part of the national wealth fell into the hands of a small group of oligarchs.

Compare and contrast the roles of slaves and freemen in the Roman Republic In Only Three Sentences.
True [87]

Answer: ik you said only one but couldent help it

Explanation:

1. Roman slavery was not based on race so sometimes it was hard to differ if someone was a slave or not (everyone looked similar).

2. Both roles are pretty similar except for the fact that slaves are forced into labor work and freed men work on their own free will and are treated better.

3. Slaves are abused and treated badly and freemen aren't.

4. Slaves were used in all forms of work except for public office.

5. Often times employed men and slaves would work together except that the free employed men would get paid and the slaves wouldn't (this usually happened when one cannot find enough slaves to work and can only conclude to using paid workers so that's when they end up getting mixed together).

The role of slaves and freemen seem very similar in a lot of aspects (despite the fact that slaves cannot work in public office) but they are ranked by their parents (if your parents are slaves then you're born a slave) and slaves can also be chosen out of something like a battle. If they lose they are taken in as slaves. What I'm trying to say is that freedom was not a right but a privilege for people in the Roman Republic. Things like battles were used to justify and confirm superiority over the losers and gave the winners divine right to rule over the losers (slaves) and treat them badly. At a point the slaves were practically invisible.
