History

Arada [10]3 years ago
8 0

World War II ended with the use of the first atomic bombs used in human history. The bombs were dropped on the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, on August 6 and 9, 1945, respectively. These bombs became known as Little boy and Fat man, because of their shapes and the explosiveness of each one.

The atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima (known as Little boy) had a destructive power equivalent to 16 thousand tons of TNT, that is, 16 kilotons, and the bomb dropped on Nagasaki (the Fat man), around 20 thousand kilotons. Despite the damage done, the nuclear bombs used in World War II are not among the most powerful nuclear bombs ever made in the world.

Explain the impact of other causes, important events, and significant figures on the Byzantine empire in complete sentences. How
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer: 1. Justinian himself planted the seeds for the Byzantine Empire's decline. First, his constant wars and the rebuilding of Constantinople after the Nika Riot caused serious financial problems for the empire. The reconstruction of the Hagia Sophia alone cost about 320,000 pounds of gold

2. Invading forces contribute to the fall of the Byzantine empire by weakening the empire.

3. The Macedonian Dynasty saw the Byzantine Renaissance, a time of increased interest in classical scholarship and the assimilation of classical motifs into Christian artwork.

4. The Nicaean Empire eventually recovered Constantinople and restored the Byzantine Empire in 1261. The Fourth Crusade is considered to have solidified the East-West Schism. The crusade dealt an irrevocable blow to the Byzantine Empire, contributing to its decline.

5. Trade with the Venetians contributed to the fall of the Byzantine Empire in ways both direct and indirect. Because Venice was able to negotiate such favorable terms in their trade contracts with Constantinople, there arose bitter anti-Venice sentiment in the Eastern Empire.

How is the bill of rights relevant to you ash a high school student?
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

The Bill of Rights is the first 10 amendments to the United States Constitution. These amendments guarantee essential rights and civil liberties, such as the right to free speech and the right to a fair trial, as well as reserving rights to the people and the states.

Explanation:

As a distinct historical document, drafted separately from the seven articles that form the body of the Constitution, the Bill of Rights has its own fascinating story. But ever since the first 10 amendments were ratified in 1791, the Bill of Rights has also been an integral part of the Constitution.
