The U.S. believed that if the atomic bomb could end the war, Soviet influence after the war would be restricted and domestically the tremendous cost of development would be justified.

Why do governments have stricter rules about decision-making than private organizations do?
True [87]

Governments are supposed to have limited power because they are meant to serve the people, not the other way around.

Considering that, having stricter rules mean that the rules won't jut "do what they want" when in power.

Having strict rules and strict functions to each statesmen means that they are more likely to do what they are meant to instead of turning the power of the government against the people.

Two of Swift's pro-Irish writings were _______, which encouraged the boycott of English copper coins, and _______. which drew at
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:Two of Swift's pro-Irish writings were, 'The Drapier's Letters' which encouraged the boycott of English copper coins, and, 'A Modest Proposal' which drew attention to starvation in Ireland.

Explanation:According to Wikipedia, 'The Drapier's Letters (1724) was a series of pamphlets against the monopoly granted by the English government to William Wood to mint copper coinage for Ireland. It was widely believed that Wood would need to flood Ireland with debased coinage in order to make a profit. In these "letters" Swift posed as a shop-keeper—a draper—to criticise the plan. Swift's writing was so effective in undermining opinion in the project that a reward was offered by the government to anyone disclosing the true identity of the author. Though hardly a secret (on returning to Dublin after one of his trips to England, Swift was greeted with a banner, "Welcome Home, Drapier") no one turned Swift in, although there was an unsuccessful attempt to prosecute the publisher Harding.Thanks to the general outcry against the coinage, Wood's patent was recinded in September 1725 and the coins were kept out of circulation.'

According to Wikipedia, 'A Modest Proposal For preventing the Children of Poor People From being a Burthen to Their Parents or Country, and For making them Beneficial to the Publick, commonly referred to as A Modest Proposal, is a Juvenalian satirical essay written and published anonymously by Jonathan Swift in 1729. The essay suggests that the impoverished Irish might ease their economic troubles by selling their children as food for rich gentlemen and ladies. This satirical hyperbole mocked heartless attitudes towards the poor, as well as British policy toward the Irish in general. The primary target of Swift's satire was the rationalism of modern economics, and the growth of rationalistic modes of thinking in modern life at the expense of more traditional human values.'

1.) In exchange for allowing him to live, what did Sulla take away from Caesar?
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

Well, this is going to be a long answer! I hope I helped, please correct me if I'm wrong!

1. I believe he took Caesar's wife and Cinna’s daughter, in exchange of his life, since research showed that Young Julius Caesar was proscribed for no reason other than he refused to divorce his wife. (I'm not very sure about this)

2. He never married her because Rome, after all, did not recognize plural marriage, and at that time, Caesar was still married to Calpurnia.

3.  Caesar focused on economic changes, like improved land and waterways. His political reforms focused on creating physical structures, rebuilding cities and temples, and improving the Senate, The main ruling body in Rome. (I'm sorry about this one, I'm not very sure which one was most important)

4. The senators assassinated Caesar because they feared his unprecedented concentration of power during his dictatorship was undermining the Roman Republic, and presented the deed as an act of tyrannicide.

5. The death of Julius Caesar ultimately had the opposite impact of what his assassins hoped. Much of the Roman public hated the senators for the assassination, and a series of civil wars ensued.
