Answer:

The right option is D.

Explanation:

The Zulus lived in separate clans, without a common leader, similar to the Mongols who also lived in separate clans and were only united under Genghis Khan's rule. Shaka managed to unite his people, and also conquered several other tribes. In a few years, he had over 200.000 new followers coming from his conquests.

The Mongol empire was known for allowing its conquered folks to still keep their lifestyles, as long as they were loyal to them. They did not destroy everything they touched, and only wiped out those clans who directly opposed them.

Shaka was also similar, as his goal was to rule over a vast territory. When he first came to power, his tribe was composed of about 1500 people and even fewer warriors. But by the time of his death, he ruled over about 500.000 people, from all the territories and tribes he conquered.

Shaka had two half brothers, who made at least 2 failed assassination attempts on Shaka. After that, with support from the Mpondo people, Shaka was killed by 3 assassins, in 1828.

Zulu leader Shaka is a fearsome warrior and conquered many clans whose ruling was a milestone for Zulus.
He allowed the people from the conquered cities to mingle along within his nation that in turn enlarged his empire and also built a big army. The same way the Mongols incorporated the conquered communities into their empire in order to expand his empire.
When they conquered China, the Chinese people were allowed to not forced to follow their customs. Even many Chinese worked for the Mongol Government.

What was the capital of

Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

1. Constantinopole

2. Location and the walls

Explanation:

The capital of the Byzantine Empire was called Constantinopole (today it is Istambul). It was proclaimed to be the capital by emperor Constantine the Great and got named after him. It became capital in 324, while it was still known under the name of Byzantium and it fell under the Ottoman rule in 1453. The name was changed to Istambul in 1930.

For a long time, Constantinople was very hard to conquer before its final fall. The reasons for it are usually cited as the cities great strategic location and its walls.

The location of the city was great and it was a key factor for making the capital there. The city lies on the Bosporus, surrounded by the sea. This proved it suitable for trade as well as for protection. It was easy to see who are the enemies coming by the ships from nearly all sides. Army of Constantinopole had great advance in the defense this way.

The city was also surrounded by great walks on all sides, both towards the sea and the land. In the 5th century, there was even the second layer of walls built, making the city twice as protected and hard to conquer. The walls were very tall and thick. They still exist today in parts.

Why do we need government

saw5 [17]

GOVERNMENTs almost certainly originated with the need to protect people from conflicts and to provide law and order. Why have conflicts among people happened throughout history? Many people, both famous and ordinary, have tried to answer that question. Perhaps human nature dictates selfishness, and people inevitably will come to blows over who gets what property or privilege. Or maybe, as KARL MARX explains, it is because the very idea of "PROPERTY" makes people selfish and greedy.

Whatever the reasons, governments first evolved as people discovered that protection was easier if they stayed together in groups and if they all agreed that one (or some) in the group should have more power than others. This recognition is the basis of SOVEREIGNTY, or the right of a group (later a country) to be free of outside interference.

The Great Wall of China
Part of a government's function is to protect its citizens from outside attack. Ancient Chinese emperors constructed a "Great Wall" to defend the borders of their empire.
A country, then, needs to not only protect its citizens from one another, but it needs to organize to prevent outside attack. Sometimes they have built Great Walls and guarded them carefully from invaders. Other times they have led their followers to safe areas protected by high mountains, wide rivers, or vast deserts. Historically, they have raised armies, and the most successful ones have trained and armed special groups to defend the rest. Indeed in the twentieth century, governments have formed alliances and fought great world wars in the name of protection and order.

In more recent years, government responsibilities have extended to the economy and public service. An early principle of capitalism dictates that markets should be free from government control. But when economies spun out of control during the 1930s, and countries sank into great depressions, governments acted. The United States Congress created the FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM in the early twentieth century to ward off inflation and monitor the value of the dollar. FRANKLIN ROOSEVELT and his "BRAIN TRUST" devised New Deal programs to shock the country into prosperity.

The Federal Reserve System
Governments become involved with the economic workings of their countries. In the 1930s, the Federal Reserve System began to take a role in helping the American economy prevent another depression by locating currency reserves at centralized banks.
Perhaps government responsibility to provide social programs to its citizens is the most controversial of all. In the United States the tradition began with the New Deal programs, many of which provided people with relief through jobs, payments, and food. During the 1960s PRESIDENT LYNDON JOHNSON unveiled his "GREAT SOCIETY" programs aimed at eliminating poverty in the entire country. Many European countries today provide national medical insurance and extensive welfare benefits. Many Americans criticize these programs as expensive ventures that destroy the individual's sense of responsibility for his/her own well being. So the debate over the proper role of government in providing for its people's general welfare is still alive and well today.

Though the rules and responsibilities vary greatly through time and place, governments must create them. Governments provide the parameters for everyday behavior for citizens, protect them from outside interference, and often provide for their well-being and happiness.
