which of the following describes a reason historians might want to use a primary source to study an event

History
1 answer:
baherus [9]3 years ago

A primary source comes from someone who lived during the time of the event or they were at the event. The reason why historians want primary source is because it is more likely to be factual and will give the best information. For example, at the signing of the declaration of independence several of the men who signed it wrote diaries . That would be considered a primary source, because those men were there and saw it as well as documented the event.

jekas [21]
The correct answer is B.. the Macedonian king who took control of the Greek city-states and established an empire that stretched as far east as India.

He conquered what was at that time considered to be almost the entire world, hence the name "the Great". He successfully defeated Persia and died somehow when he was in India. The exact reason why he died young has never been found although there are speculations as to what happened.

What was one important factor that helped pass the 26th amendment in 1971 which lowered the voting age to 18
neonofarm [45]
The Vietnam War. It was a long debate over lowering the voting age from 21 to 18, which began during World War II and only intensified during the Vietnam War when young men who were practically being heavily obligated and sometimes forced/drafted to fight for their country were being denied the right to vote. “Old enough to fight, old enough to vote” became a common slogan for a youth voting rights movement, and in 1943 Georgia<span> became the first state to lower its voting age in state and local elections from 21 to 18.

Hope this helps!</span>
