The incorrect statement is C (It lay in a strategically important location that could be defended against attack. This is incorrect because Constantine or Byzantium, as it was previously called came under attack many times. However it did certainly contain important holy tombs and sacrilegious sites, which initially attracted the Christian emperor. It was also right in the middle of Europe and the Far East and was an important trading site. It also had very fertile agricultural land.

Gnaeus Pompey did not originally wish to join the First Triumvirate. What caused him to change his mind?
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

Pompey only agreed to join the First Triumvirate so that his goals in Rome were supported.

Explanation:

First Triumvirate was a political alliance between Marcus Licinius Crassus, Pompey, and Julius Caesar. The idea was for the three men to help each other to achieve the goals and proposals they had for Rome and even for themselves. At first, Pompey did not want to participate in the First Triumvirate, because he did not support Crassus.

Pompey was a great general and Crassus was an extremely wealthy and influential man. Pompey wanted the Roman Senate to give land to veterans of his army. So they could colonize land in the name of Rome, in the eastern territories. This request was denied, which made him try to make alliances with powerful people like Julio Cesar and Crassus, so that this request could be considered.

Arrange the events in chronological order.
liberstina [14]

1. Representatives of the third estate gather at a tennis court and swear to continue meeting until a new French constitution is drafted.

2. A crowd of angry, hungry women marches from Paris to Versailles to force the royal family back to Paris.

3. King Louis XVI is executed by guillotine on charges of treason, while his wife, Marie Antoinette, is executed a few months later.

4. French soldier Napoleon Bonaparte rises to power and makes himself the emperor of France.

The French Revolution begins within the National Assembly with the Third Estate (commoners) demanding a new constitution be drawn up and signed. The group wanted more of a say in the government since they made up over 1/2 of the population but were only given 1 vote in the Assembly. The Storming of the Bastille is considered the first event in the revolution. This event is followed by bread riots and the march to Versailles by women demanding bread prices be lower. Upon taking Versailles, the women forced Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette back to Paris. After forcing Louis to comply with the Third Estate he would eventually be guillotined with his wife to follow. France would enter a bloody period of the revolution leading to more overthrows of the government. Eventually Napoleon would come to power turning France into a military-based empire.

Which best describes how the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution affected US involvement in the Vietnam War?
erica [24]
Even though there are no choices in your question, here is some information that will help.

The Gulf of Tonkin Resolution was passed by the United States Congress on August 7, 1964. This allowed US President Lyndon B. Johnson to take any measures he wants in order to repel any attack against the US army and to use force however he wants to stop future aggression in Vietnam. This resolution essentially allows the president to send as much troops as he wants. Along with this, he can use whatever weapons/technology he wants. This gives the president a significant amount of power.
