Answer:

The answer is: letter A, Established prisons to hold criminals and reduced crime.

Explanation:

Thomas Hobbes was an<em> English philosopher</em> who supported "absolute monarchy" as the best form of government for the people. According to him, it is a human instinct to desire more power. Without law, people will kill others in order to achieve their own good. Thus, he stated that life would be "nasty, brutish and short" without a state government. Establishing prisons to hold criminals and reduce crime will allow people to uphold the contract of submitting themselves to the will of the sovereign. People's fear will be the means to maintain order and peace in a civil society.

So for him, in order to guarantee "peace,"<u><em> monarchy</em></u> is the best form of government. It is important that <em>all members in the nation submit themselves absolutely to the sovereign in order to maintain peace. </em>

Answer:

In <u>500</u> <u>Bce</u> the Greek city-states on the western coast of Anatolia rose up in rebellion against Persia. This uprising, known as the Ionian revolt (500–494 bce), failed, but its consequences for the mainland Greeks were momentous.

Explanation:

Although the Greeks were often heavily outnumbered, they generally had better tactics, organization and technology than the Persians. ... The usual result of battles were that the Persians would suffer massive casualties against the well armed and well organized Greeks while the Greeks would suffer negligible casualties. What did the Greek city-states do to defend themselves against Persian invaders? ... In preparation for the attack, some of the Greek states formed a defensive league under the SPARTANS. The athenians, however, followed a new military policy insisted on by Themistocles, one of the Athenian leaders, and built a navy.
