Answer:
A ziggurat is a temple of ancient Mesopotamia that has the shape of a pyramid. The design of a ziggurat goes from a simple base with a temple on top. The base could be rectangular, oval or square. The ziggurat's core - the part not exposed to the weather - was built of sun-dried bricks, while the outer part was covered with cooked bricks, which could also be vitrified in different colors; the access was made by stairs located on the sides of the ziggurat or spiraling up to the top. One of the best preserved is that of Choga Zanbil in present-day Iran, in the territory between Iraq and Iran. The oldest preserved ziggurat is that of Kashan dating back to the third millennium BC.

Ella Osborn’s 1918 diary provides insight into the experiences of an American nurse serving in
France at the end of World War I. In addition to her notes about the men under her care and
events in France, Osborn jotted down two popular World War I poems, “In Flanders Fields,” by
Canadian surgeon Lt. Col. John D. McCrae, and “The Answer,” by Lt. J. A. Armstrong of
Wisconsin.
McCrae composed “In Flanders Fields” on May 3, 1915, during the Second Battle of Ypres,
Belgium. It was published in Punch magazine on December 8, 1915, and became one of the most
popular and frequently quoted poems about the war. It was used for recruitment, in propaganda
efforts, and to sell war bonds. Today the red poppy of McCrae’s poem has become a symbol for
soldiers who have died in combat.
In Flanders Fields the poppies grow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place.
“The Answer” is one of many poems written in response to “In Flanders Fields”:
Sleep peacefully, for all is well.
Your flaming torch aloft we bear,
With burning heart an oath we swear
To keep the faith to fight it through
To crush the foe, or sleep with you
In Flanders Field
Osborn’s transcripts of the poems contain some textual differences from the published versions.
Based on the ink used in the diary entries and the ink used in the verses, it appears she went back
in her diary to find empty pages to include the poems.

The larks still bravely singing, fly

Unheard, amid the guns below.
We are the dead, Short days ago
We lived, felt dawns, saw sunsets glow;
Loved and were loved – but now we lie
In Flanders Field
Take up our quarrel with the foe!
To you from falling hands we throw
The torch, Be yours to bear it high!
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep tho’ poppies blow
In Flanders Field.
The Answer –
In Flanders Field the cannon boom
And fitful flashes light the gloom;
While up above, like Eagles, fly
The fierce destroyers of the sky;
With stains the earth wherein you lie
Is redder than the poppy bloom
In Flanders Field.
Sleep on ye brave! The shrieking shell,
The quaking trench, the startling yell,
The fury of the battle hell
Shall wake you not; for all is well.
Sleep peacefully, for all is well.
Your flaming torch aloft we bear,
With burning heart an oath we swear
To keep the faith to fight it through
To crush the foe, or sleep with
The correct answers are A) Germany threaten to invade, B) Mexicans revolted its government, and D) Pancho Villa led raids into the United States.
<em>The three events that resulted in United States Forces intervening in Latin American Government are Germany threaten to invade, Mexicans revolted its government, and Pancho Villa led raids into the United States.</em>
Since the beginning, the affairs of the relationship of Latin America and the United States have had its ups and downs as always happen with neighborhood countries. In the case of Mexico, the U.S. government played a key role in the Mexican Revolution of 1910, repudiating the revolutionary movement and supporting the government of Porfirio Diaz. The other event was the invasion of Pancho Villa to the U.S. territory. In March 1916, President Wilson ordered the U.S. Army to enter Mexican territory to capture Villa.
Answer:
Greek democracy created at Athens was direct, rather than representative: any adult male citizen over the age of 20 could take part, and it was a duty to do so. The officials of the democracy were in part elected by the Assembly and in large part chosen by lottery in a process called sortition.
