The main reason why this was the case during the Renaissance was because art collection was a luxury, in that it required a lot of money. This made it advantageous for only the rich people to support it fully.

Answer:    Wealthy citizens have seen the possibility of supporting and sponsoring art to improve their status.

Explanation:  During the Renaissance in Italian cities, powerful and wealthy traders were either city leaders or very close to them. By supporting Renaissance art and buying works of art from artists, they gained recognition and expanded their influence. This influence and status that they would have as patrons of art, they used in their business. Renaissance as a new direction in art, but also as a new world view, opened the door to those who supported it. Traders, bankers, goldsmiths, were an integral part of this new view of the world and a new way of business and life.

John Locke (1632-1704)John Locke was English philosopher who formulated one of the most influential theories of contractual government. He theorized that individuals granted political rights to their rulers but retained personal right to life, liberty and property and that any ruler that violated those rights was subject to disposition. In effect, Locke's political thought relocated sovereignty, removing it from rulers as divine agents and vesting it in the people of a society.Louis XVI (reigned 1774-1793)King Louis XVI was the king of France. He was able to raise more revenue from the overburdened peasantry, so he sought to increase taxes on the French nobility, which had long been exempt from many levies. In May 1789, he called the Estates General into session at the royal palace of Versailles in hopes that it would authorize new taxes. After revolution was declared, he became a victim of the guillotine along with his wife, Queen Marie Antoinette after being found guilty of treason.Maximilien Robespierre (1758-1794)Maximilien Robespierre was a lawyer by training who had emerged during the revolution as a ruthless but popular, radical known as "the Incorruptible". He dominated the Committee of Public Safety, the executive authority of the Republic. He helped to promote the revolutionary agenda.

What led many people to move west manifest destiny
strojnjashka [21]

Pioneer settlers were sometimes pulled west because they wanted to make a better living. The biggest factor that pulled pioneers west was the opportunity to buy land.

Manifest destiny was caused by the fact that the American people were historically connected to English civilization, this gave them a sense of superiority over the other peoples who lived in North America. Because of the fact that they were white and civilized, the Americans felt superior to the Indians.

Why did hitler begin a campaign against the Jews ? How did it become the final solution?
hram777 [196]

Answer:

Anti-Semitism, sometimes called history’s oldest hatred, is hostility or prejudice against Jewish people. The Nazi Holocaust is history’s most extreme example of anti-Semitism. Anti-Semitism did not begin with Adolf Hitler: Anti-Semitic attitudes date back to ancient times. In much of Europe throughout the Middle Ages, Jewish people were denied citizenship and forced to live in ghettos. Anti-Jewish riots called pogroms swept the Russian Empire during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, and anti-Semitic incidents have increased in parts of Europe, the Middle East and North America in the last several years.

The term anti-Semitism was first popularized by German journalist Wilhelm Marr in 1879 to describe hatred or hostility toward Jews. The history of anti-Semitism, however, goes back much further.

Hostility against Jews may date back nearly as far as Jewish history. In the ancient empires of Babylonia, Greece, and Rome, Jews—who originated in the ancient kingdom of Judea—were often criticized and persecuted for their efforts to remain a separate cultural group rather than taking on the religious and social customs of their conquerors.

With the rise of Christianity, anti-Semitism spread throughout much of Europe. Early Christians vilified Judaism in a bid to gain more converts. They accused Jews of outlandish acts such as “blood libel”—the kidnapping and murder of Christian children to use their blood to make Passover bread.
