History

Answer:

The exercise of absolute power affects a country by limiting the rights of its citizens in favor of the rights and powers of the absolutist ruler, creating a tyrannical and dictatorial regime.

Explanation:

Absolutism is a type of political regime in which the holder of a power attached to his person, concentrates in his hands all the powers, and governs without any control. Absolutist rulers subject all aspects of life in the state to rigid control of the state administrative apparatus.

Absolutism in extreme cases turns to totalitarianism; which is possible when absolutist power leads the ruler to the possibility of controlling virtually all aspects of life in a society, from raising children in kindergartens, through employing staff in enterprises, to editing newspapers and directing artists.

Such as in the case of Tsarist Russia in the earliest 20th century, absolute power can lead to much cynicism towards the autocratic leader, in which he/she is seen as the centre of blame for all social, political, and economic circumstances. this can lead to uprisings, strikes and revolutions where the masses rise up against their sole leader

How did the desire of King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella to unify Spain affect the Jews and Muslims who lived there?
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

Ferdinand of Aragon marries Isabella of Castile in Valladolid, thus beginning a cooperative reign that would unite all the dominions of Spain and elevate the nation to a dominant world power. Ferdinand and Isabella incorporated a number of independent Spanish dominions into their kingdom and in 1478 introduced the Spanish Inquisition, a powerful and brutal force of homogenization in Spanish society. In 1492, the reconquest of Granada from the Moors was completed, and the crown ordered all Spanish Jews to convert to Christianity or face expulsion from Spain. Four years later, Spanish Muslims were handed a similar order.

The difference between gentleman’s warfare and militia warfare in the revolutionary war
jekas [21]

Answer:

There's a popular belief that Americans fought and won the entire revolution with nothing but guerrilla warfare. That's not true, and the myth largely stems from how the war began. The very first military engagement between British and American forces occurred on April 19 of 1775. American militia men had been covertly transporting weapons and colonial government leaders from town to town, hiding them from the British army. The British heard about these stockpiles in the Massachusetts towns of Lexington and Concord and went to seize them. The American volunteers of these town gathered together to oppose the British, resulting in a brief skirmish. As the British beat a hasty retreat back towards Boston, American militia units basically popped out of the bushes along the entire road, shot a few volleys, and disappeared. It wasn't enough to decimate the British, but the British weren't prepared for it, and it drove them back.

Explanation:

Imagine that you are in charge of leading a small army of volunteer soldiers against the largest and most powerful professional army in the world. Are you going to march straight into battle? Not if you expect it to be a very long one!

For centuries, small armies have relied on guerrilla warfare to help even the odds. This includes non-traditional wartime tactics like ambushing, sabotage, and raids rather than direct engagements. Guerrilla warfare is not meant to really defeat an opponent; instead, the idea is to make the war drag on and become so expensive that your adversary gives up. It's the different between fighting a professional boxer versus a swarm of mosquitoes - the mosquitoes won't kill you, but they just may drive you away.

Amongst the many armies to try out these tactics were the American colonists fighting for their independence. The American Revolution was a conflict between a group of volunteers and a massive professional army. Did they think they could defeat Britain, the heavyweight champion of European colonialism? Maybe not, but while Britain prepared to defend its title, it was the colonists who learned how to 'float like a butterfly and sting like a bee.'
