Answer:
Joan of Arc, the fifteenth century rebel warrior who was burned at the stake, defied the authorities’ order to renounce her beliefs.
Explanation:
Joan of Arc was born in a turbulent time when the Hundred Years' War had ravaged for well over ninety years. Her homeland was divided into two: the Armagnacs wanted to expel the English, and the Burgundians concluded an alliance with them. That made it impossible for France to win. The English dissatisfaction with the French interference in the king's vassals led to fierce battles over who should inherit the French throne. Joan of Arc started hearing voices when she was 12 years old. She thought she heard the voice of God. The voice told her that she should liberate France. The northern part of France was under English rule. In Joan's time, the war entered a new chapter, when England and France were to have new kings: In England, an infant was heir to the throne. In France, the later Charles VII awaited the next step that could lead him to the French throne. Joan of Arc, who had come to crown her king and liberate her people, ended her short life on the heresy fire; convicted of dressing in men's clothing and of mocking the church and God, who she believed had imposed on her her mission.
Hello. You did not ask the question to which this text refers, which makes it impossible for me to give you an answer. However, when searching the internet, I found a question that used that same text and asked what was the verb tense of the text and what was the meaning of the phrase ‘this green flooring’. If that's your case, I hope the answer below can help you.
The verb tense of the text in the first sentence is Simple Past. Since the verbs "had landed" have an action performed in the past and that has been completely completed. However, the second sentence presents the past tense Past Perfect Continuous, as it presents an action that happened in the past before another action happened, since we can see that the characters waved before starting to call out stridently.
The phrase "this green flooring" refers to the characters stepping on a floor with vegetation and therefore stepping on a "green flooring."
Born in the Philippines, Ez Mil created Panalo as the pride song of Pinoy, with a title that literally translates to victory and combines Tagalog and Ilocano.
The song itself even features Carinosa, a song from a traditional Filipino folk dance. However, one lyric from the song annoyed some listeners.
EZ MIL’S PANALO LYRICS
During the song, Ez Mil raps that Filipino hero Lapu-Lapu was beheaded in the Battle of Mactan. However, the lyric isn’t factually true. Instead, Lapu-Lapu and his warriors defeated and killed Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan.
“Nanalo na ako nung una pa na pinugutan si Lapu sa Mactan,” which translates to “I already won the moment Lapu-[Lapu] was beheaded in Mactan.”
The Lilliputians are the first people that Gulliver visits when he begins his travels. The Lilliputians have a system of government in which they do not appoint the most intelligent, or capable, person to a particular job. Instead, they appoint the person who can better perform rope dancing. This rope dancing is dangerous, as the ropes are a foot high (very high for the tiny Lilliputians). This satire exemplifies the way the government of England is not always ruled by clever people either, but only by those who do the most to impress the people in positions of power.
