Answer: The answer is: surplus.
Explanation: Since the Sumerian civilisation developed between rivers in the fertile plain, therefore, thanks to agriculture, combined with the rainy seasons during the year, meant that they were able to produce large quantities of food. That food was necessary for life, and any excess food could be exchanged for some other good, which was in fact a precondition for development. Every surplus of food, growing bigger and bigger, meant an exchange for something else that was needed, and over time, it had grown to such an extent that this exchange meant wealth, power and dominance in the ancient world.
Of course, this exchange of surplus food for other goods contributed to the development of trade with their neighbours, which was a prerequisite for the development of the empire. Thus, a trading system was developed that included established trade canals and their development and promotion, as well as writing trade agreements with a wedge-shaped letter, for easier, faster and more efficient trade.
Answer: Many reasons. Most of them terrible.
But possibly for the identical reason that a decent parent who is totally against penalty would be willing to do and use it if their child keeps mindlessly walking into oncoming traffic (regardless of what number times they tried other methods to prevent them from doing it).
Sometimes you'll be able to keep your principals and morals… and stick out the dead kid. otherwise you can do whatever is important to prevent them from killing themselves and others… whether or not it means becoming a tyrant and a dictator in their eyes and therefore the eyes of others. whether or not it means going against your own core beliefs.
Explanation:
Answer: B. the spread of slavery into the West.
Explanation:
It was an established fact in the years leading up to the Civil War that the South was pro-slavery and the North was Anti-slavery and so both sides had arguments about the spread of slavery into the western territories as those territories gained statehood.
The South wanted slavery to spread into the territories so that they would have more states which would give slavery more representation in Congress and therefore keep the practice going. The North wanted the territories to be free for the same reason.
It wasn't until 2012 that Feely and a team from Oregon State University finally showed with certainty that acidification had caused the problem.
