Charlemagne (/ˈʃɑːrləmeɪn/) or Charles the Great[a] (German: Karl der Große, Italian: Carlo Magno/Carlomagno; 2 April 742[1][b] – 28 January 814), numbered Charles I, was King of the Franks from 768, King of the Lombards from 774, and Holy Roman Emperor from 800. He united much of western and central Europe during the Early Middle Ages. He was the first recognised emperor to rule from western Europe since the fall of the Western Roman Empire three centuries earlier.[2] The expanded Frankish state that Charlemagne founded is called the Carolingian Empire. He was later canonized by Antipope Paschal III.

Charlemagne was the eldest son of Pepin the Short and Bertrada of Laon, born before their canonical marriage.[3] He became king in 768 following his father's death, initially as co-ruler with his brother Carloman I. Carloman's sudden death in December 771 under unexplained circumstances left Charlemagne as the sole ruler of the Frankish Kingdom.[4] He continued his father's policy towards the papacy and became its protector, removing the Lombards from power in northern Italy and leading an incursion into Muslim Spain. He campaigned against the Saxons to his east, Christianizing them upon penalty of death and leading to events such as the Massacre of Verden. He reached the height of his power in 800 when he was crowned "Emperor of the Romans" by Pope Leo III on Christmas Day at Rome's Old St. Peter's Basilica.

How did president eisenhower respond to the aggression of england, france, and israel against egypt in 1956?
Scrat [10]
President Eisenhower condemned their aggression. He put the US Strategic Air Command on alert and threatened sanctions, ultimately forcing the British, French and Israelis to withdraw.

After Egypt's president Gamal Abdel Nasser nationalized the Suez Canal in October, 1956 (taking ownership and control of it for Egypt), Israel sent troops into the Sinai region to challenge the Egyptians.  British and French forces joined the Israelis within two days.  The European powers were interested in maintaining their stake in the control of the Suez Canal.   Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev threatened major retaliation, including nuclear missiles, against Britain and France if they did not withdraw.  (The Soviet Union was a sponsor of Egypt.)  America's response, issued by Eisenhower, was less radical, but still strong, threatening economic sanctions.  The "Suez Crisis," as it became known, thus ended within months.  The British and French withdrew troops in December, 1956, and Israel pulled its forces back by March of 1957.

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

Needing a better economic situation prior to World War II, Italian leader Mussolini began limiting unemployment by stressing military duty.

Explanation:

Mussolini managed to defeat unemployment due to the implementation of large-scale projects for the development of the country's agriculture. In the place of drained bogs, new agricultural regions were created, where unemployed labor from other regions of the country was involved. Under Mussolini, the social sphere was significantly expanded by opening thousands of new schools and hospitals.

Subsequently, economic power was concentrated in the hands of the largest corporations from a number of industries: industry, agriculture, trade, sea and air transport, railway transport and river shipping, banks and insurance companies (all artists were united in the eighth - whom can talk to in the nijt). The corporations were appointed by the state, which coordinated their activities with the help of the new special ministry. According to the then Charter of Labor, in exchange for benefits and privileges, employers pledged to remain loyal to the regime, and workers were protected by centralized social legislation that regulated, in particular, wages and prices.

What is teh preposition phrase in tis sentence the world has seen many wars, but the two world wars in the twentieth century hav
labwork [276]
The correct answer should be <span>but the two world wars in the twentieth century

This is a preposition phrase functioning as a subject of a prepositional clause. It's the phrase because it starts with "but" which is used here as a preposition, and is followed by a noun phrase which is "the two world wars in the twentieth century". Phrases don't contain verbs because if they do then they became clauses or are verbal phrases.</span>
