Why was Persia ultimately unsuccessful in conquering Greece?
kherson [118]
My own answer is because they just didn't care for the small land of Greece. Greece was poor and small. Invading Greece and maintaining it would probably have cost quite a lot more than what small profit it actually had. I think Xerxes was foolishly trying to set an example of how people who offended his empire would have been treated and failed, obviously. The Persians probably even thought of the Greeks as primitive, although today we know they weren't, for religious and lifestyle points of view (It is probably quite obvious how sacrificing an animal before every single battle and river crossing and marriage and many more sounded hilarious to the Persians as Zarostrian monotheists) and so miscalculated their strength at first and then totally abandoned them by the time Aristides was finished with the Delian league and had took back most of Ionia and Byzantium was returned to the Greeks. 
No Persian ever thought the mistrusting Greeks would ever be united and strong enough of a military unit to be able to pose a threat to their nation. apparently though, according to Diodorus Sicculus, the Persians were interested in the lands of Sicily, because Xerxes had thought it appropriate to send a massive invasion toward the people of Syracuse at the same time that he was campaigning in Greece, the invasion being arranged and managed by the Carthaginians who were by now an ally of the Persian empire.
Note also that after the king's peace was brought about, the Persians never broke their pact, although they interfered greatly in the Peloponessian war and dictated outcomes for specific battles, or supplied Sparta with enough gold so the Spartans could greatly upgrade the size of their fleet and to be able to match or at least contest the strength of the Athenian fleet with the help of their league members.
<span>Conclusively, I suggest the Persians failed to take Greece because they did not wish to conquer it. The land was poor and rough, unsuitable for farming. It was far from the capitals and hard to control, should something happen in Greece it would take at least two to four days for a Chapar to reach the king in Susa or Persepolis. Furthermore, the people of the land were easy to revolt and demanding democracy and this was not to the liking of the monarchic Persian empire, although they allowed the Ionians to have their own popular governments, the Ionians were easier to control than the Hellenes in Greece. Thus the Greeks were best left to themselves.</span>

What does physics mean
djyliett [7]
Physics comes from an ancient Greek word which translates to "knowledge of nature". Physics is the science that studies all things involving energy, matter, and their interaction.  Physics tries to answer universe's core questions through a series of observation and experimentation. Usually, physicists deal with theories and conduct researchers, trying to understand the world and the universe. However, some of them would apply these theories in creating technological innovation; thus, gaining practical value in the present human world. Knowledge on the subject proves to have advance society.

Why isn’t there just one history.?
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

Cause, it most likely started by making root histories. Example in like world history they only highlighted the history from Europe and surrounding countries. In American history they highlighted the history from the ones that came over from Europe.What they failed to do is recognize other culures, like African-American history, Mexican American history, or Asian history. (Sorry if I missed anyone) And now all of these histories are available.

It would be almost impossible but it would be wonderful if someone would put all those different histories into the world and or American history. That way you get a broad idea of what people had to do, what they lived through, their accomplishments in society, or to the world. This would stop the stereotypes, and lies we are told regarding other races, and or cultures. It would certainly bridge many gaps that we see in the world today. It would also help all of us to know each other better.

Which technology of the New Stone Age had the most impact on daily life? Explain.
Amanda [17]
This is still somewhat of a subjective question, but most would agree that the technology of the New Stone Age that had the most impact on daily life was the stone itself--used as picks and tools that could make eating food easier.
