The correct answer is B. governments gain power because citizens agree that they do.

Being a legitimate government means that you were chosen legitimately by the people, usually through a general democratic election. This way a government is both legal and legitimate and illegitimate governments are usually not recognized in worldwide politics even if they have power of their people.

Why did journalist call the alaska purchase of 1867 "sewards folly"
bezimeni [28]

The reason why journalists called the Alaska purchase of 1867 "Seward's folly" is because it was the idea of Senator William Seward to purchase the territory, and it was thought that this was a waste of money since it was so distant and seemingly uninhabitable.

Explanation:

They questioned why the United States would want a vast tundra of snow and ice distant from the continental borders.

The Treaty with Russia was allocated and confirmed by Secretary of State William Seward and Russian Minister to the United States Edouard de Stoeckl. Authorities of the deal to purchase Alaska called it "Seward's Folly” or “Seward's Icebox." Complaint to the purchase of Alaska receded with the Klondike Gold Strike in 1896.
