What might have happened if the federalists had failed to make good on their promise of a bill of rights?
Katen [24]
I'm assuming that there would be many riots and perhaps a revolution had the federalists failed to make good on their promise of a bill of rights. The Bill of Rights is a collection of the first 10 amendments to the United States Constitution, and without it, America wouldn't be what it is today.

What are the traits of a militaristic government?
Mila [183]

Answer:

Explanation:

I believe that the answer is B.

This is because a militaristic government believes that the military is one of its most important assets and believes that brute force is the only way to get what you want rather than peaceful solutions which benefit both countries.

Answer:

John Locke is expressing the ideas of empiricism.

Explanation:

Empiricism is the philosphical theory that states that all knowledge comes from human experience: from the information that a person obtains through his senses. Empiricism is contrary to other theories like idealism, or rationalism.

Jonh Locke was a very important empiricist, and he is in fact considered the founder of the British empiricist school. In the paragraph, Locke is saying that he believes all knowledge comes from human experience, because when a person is born, his mind is a blank, and can only be filled through sensorial information.

What are some legacies we have today that were from the god Dionysus
Tanya [424]

Dionysus was the god of fertility and wine, later considered a patron of the arts. He created wine and spread the art of viticulture. He had a dual nature; on one hand, he brought joy and divine ecstasy; or he would bring brutal and blinding rage, thus reflecting the dual nature of wine. Dionysus and his followers could not be bound by fetters.

Dionysus was the son of Zeus and Semele, and he was the only god with a mortal parent. Zeus went to Semele in the night, unseen by human eyes, but could be felt as a divine presence. Semele was pleased to be the lover of a god, even though she did not know which one. Word soon got around and Hera quickly assumed who was responsible. She went to Semele in disguise and convinced her she should see her lover as he really was. When Zeus visited her again, she made him promise to grant her one wish. She went so far as to make him swear on the River Styx that he would grant her request. Zeus was madly in love and agreed. She then asked him to show her his true form. Zeus was unhappy knowing what was about to happen, but bound by his oath, he had no choice. He appeared in his true form and Semele was instantly burnt to a crisp by the sight of his glory. Zeus managed to rescue the fetal Dionysus and stitched him into his thigh until he would be ready to be born. His birth from Zeus conferred immortality upon him.

Hera, still jealous of Zeus' infidelity and the fact that Dionysus was alive, arranged for the Titans to kill him. The Titans ripped him to pieces; however, Rhea brought him back to life. After this, Zeus arranged for his protection and gave him to the mountain nymphs to be raised.
