Answer:

Sparta, a militaristic city state, was an oligarchy, while its rival Athens was known for its democratic institutions

Explanation:

Sparta was one of the most famous polis in ancient Greece, and the most powerful in the Peloponnese. Unlike most other polis, Sparta expanded on land, instead of expanding at sea, by establishing subsidiary cities. Sparta was a self-contained urban and military state famous for its harsh and one-sided military education and army. Its business was dominated by agriculture and animal husbandry. Sparta did not trade much, nor did it have a significant craft industry or a significant contribution to the development of Greek cultural life.

Athens, in turn, was an ancient city-state in the province of Attica in Greece. In Ancient Athens, democracy was formed, philosophy and the art of theater received classical forms. The Athenians ruled through their powerful fleet in a large number of Ionian colonies in the Aegean islands and the coasts of Asia Minor. Attica was also the metropolis of most Ionian colonies. The Athenians bordered on the north with the Boeotians and on the west with the Megarians, with whom they were often in conflict. Ancient Athens played a leading role in the Persian wars, led the alliance of Delos, as well as one of the two alliances that clashed during the Peloponnesian War.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME?!?!?! It's VERY IMPORTANT PLEASE

In the course of American history we have employed many tactics and ploys to keep our nation and our nation's beliefs safe. Isolationism, Imperialism, and Intervention all come into play at least once during each of the wars our country has fought in.

Isolationism: it's basically a policy of remaining apart from the affairs or interests of other groups to prevent unnecessary wars. It mostly involves politics rather than trade.

The most prominent example of American Isolationist Policies is during WWII, when Isolationists advocated non-involvement in European and Asian conflicts and non-entanglement in international politics. This kept America out of WWII until the Japan`s attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941 which brought the United States into the war on the Allied side.

Next up is Imperialism: it is another policy, only it involves extending a country's power and influence through diplomacy or military force. It mainly influences our economy and it also helps to keep the peace between the weaker nations.

U.S. imperialism took many different forms in the 20th century, ranging from colonies in Puerto Rico and the Philippines to protectorates in Cuba, Panama, and other countries in Latin America, and open door policies such as that in China. Formal colonies would be ruled with U.S.-appointed colonial governors and supported by U.S. troops. During WWII the Japanese attacked the american colonies in the Philippines and drove the United States out. The General McArthur declared as he was evacuated from the Philippines that" I shall return" and he did.

And last but certainly not least Intervention: interference by a country in another's affairs to improve a situation. Mainly to help maintain order and to stop dictators.

The best examples of this are immediately after WWII and it was called the Cold War foreign policy. The United States and its allies used it to prevent the spread of communism as much as possible without starting a war with the Soviet Union aka: Russia. Vietnam was really just a battle of democracy vs communism.

Which best explains why Robinson includes this description of African Americans?
mr_godi [17]

The reason why Robinson includes the descripiton of African American is: B: to point out that African Americans have greatly suffered for far too long

First, they have to endure the excruciating centuries during the period of slavery which caused a lot of death and suffering. Even after the abolitionists managed to created legislation to free the slaves, they still have to face racial injustice, especially shown during the period of racial segregation.

Compare and contrast Russia before and after the Revolution.
vladimir2022 [97]

The Russian Revolution took place in 1917 when the farmers and the working class of Russia, led by Vladimir Lenin and a group of revolutionaries called the Bolsheviks ,  rebelled against the government of Tsar Nicholas II.

Before the revolution, Russia was ruled by a powerful monarch called the Tsar, who  had total power in Russia since he commanded the army, owned much of the land, and controlled the church as well. During this period  life for the working class as well as farmers was very difficult because they  worked for little pay, without food, and were exposed to dangerous working conditions. Therefore, it could be said that the Russian aristocrat class treated the farmers like slaaves, giving them few rights under the law.

On the other hand,<em> after the revolution</em>, the new government took control of all industry and moved the Russian economy from a rural one to an industrial one. This new goverment also confiscated farmland from landholders and distributed it among the farmers. Similarly, after the revolution women were given the same rights that men and religion was banned from many aspects of society.
