Answer: b. racism

Explanation: Racially motivated attacks are fueled by the belief that people are different based on their physical features or characteristics. It also believes that some people are inferior to others based on these traits. This may lead to hatred of the group that is believed to be inferior. In the 1800s, new Irish immigrants who were fleeing from famine in Ireland were attacked on the basis of being different. This was repeated in Ireland in 2014 against the Roma population.

How might Athenian democracy be considered the root of modern democratic governments?
Anestetic [448]

It was one of the first democratic governments in recorded history. Letting people vote on leaders was revolutionary at the time and did lead to things like the roman republic, the american revolution, and the french revolution. It lead to a lot of time being spent on the tragedy of being human or self aware. Which of course lead to things like maybe i deserve to have a say in the government.

Later when the Romans took over they looked at all the Greeks stuff and thought huh? maybe this is a good idea. And the rest of course is history.

Hope this helps
