Cyrus the Great and Darius I are both seen as excellent leaders and they have a place in the hearts of most Iranians even in the present. Both of them had numerous achievements. Cyrus the Great was the one that actually created the Persian Empire, created the legendary ''Immortals' managed to conquer new territories, but was also a very tolerant and generous leader. Darius I, also referred to as Darius the Great, managed to became the leader of the Persian Empire after the assassination of the usurper on the throne. He later managed to implement numerous political reforms, conquered even more territories, and ordered the building and establishing of the capital Persepolis which was a real miracle in the antiquity.

1) Which statement best describes economic conditions in the Weimar Republic after World War I?

postnew [5]

Correct answer: D) The German government printed extra money to pay protesting workers, causing hyperinflation.

Explanation: The Treaty of Versailles (1919), signed after the end of World War I, was very harsh in the terms imposed against Germany. Germany was forced to pay large reparation payments to the countries that it had fought against in the war. Along with accepting full responsibility for causing the war, Germany was ordered make monetary payments for the damage caused "as a consequence of the aggression of Germany and her allies." Occupation of territories in the Rhine and Ruhr valleys was threatened if Germany did not make good on reparations payments.

The Germany economy was crippled by the payments it was supposed to make, and its government (as the Weimar Republic) was unable to keep up with the payments. In 1923, French troops occupied the Ruhr region. Germans living in the region responded with civil disobedience and a workers strike. The Weimar Republic government sided with the workers and printed bank notes to pay the workers while they were on strike. Printing additional money with no real economic foundation to support the increased money supply led to extreme inflation. The German economy got worse and worse.

Then came the Great Depression, beginning in 1929. The Great Depression was worse in Germany than in America. The hyperinflation in Germany got so bad so that their currency became essentially worthless. I've attached a photo which shows children playing with stacks of money as if they were building block toys -- because they weren't really worth anything as money.

The bad situation in Germany made it possible for a radical leader like Hitler, making all sorts of bold promises, to win over enough people to rise to power.

How did the relationship between the federal and state governments change during the 19th century?

mezya [45]

This depends entirely on the period in question, since prior to the Civil War the states started to gain more power (since many of them actually seceded from the Union), but after the Civil War the federal government solidified its hold over the states.
