Answer:

a. disease epidemics during peacetime have resulted in more deaths than history's major wars.

Explanation:

On Armistice Day of World War I, in 1918, the world was already fighting another battle. The Spanish flu had exploded, a pandemic that in the end killed almost three times more people than the 17 million soldiers and civilians who died during the so-called Great War.

The most dangerous diseases tend to be headlines when there is a risk of a pandemic, such as the current Ebola outbreak. When this is not the case, they are usually ignored despite the fact that each year they kill more people than wars and military conflicts.

marissa [1.9K]

They prevented the colonies from purchasing or selling goods to Spain or France

Mercantilist thinking characterized British economic strategy. For the goal of boosting British finances at the expense of colonial territories and other European imperial powers, the British Parliament passed measures such as protectionist trade barriers, governmental restrictions, and subsidies to home businesses. A flourishing industrial sector and trade with other European nations were two additional things that England wanted to stop happening in her colonies in North America. The British Parliament passed a number of laws referred to as the Navigation Acts in order to achieve this starting in 1651.

This basically stopped the colonies from conducting business with other European nations. A number of further laws that placed more restrictions on colonial commerce and raised customs fees were passed after this one.

Describe the development of government in the Nile valley through the time of Narmer
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

The Scorpion Kings of the Predynastic Period in Egypt (c. 6000-3150 BCE) obviously had a form of monarchial government, but exactly how it operated is not known.

Explanation:

The government of ancient Egypt was a theocratic monarchy as the king ruled by a mandate from the gods, initially was seen as an intermediary between human beings and the divine, and was supposed to represent the gods' will through the laws passed and policies approved. A central government in Egypt is evident by c. 3150 BCE when King Narmer unified the country, but some form of government existed prior to this date.
