To determine the percent of a number do the following steps:
1 Multiply the number by the percent (e.g. 87 * 68 = 5916)
2 Divide the answer by 100 (Move decimal point two places to the left) (e.g. 5916/100 = 59.16)
3 Round to the desired precision (e.g. 59.16 rounded to the nearest whole number = 59)
Lysistrata, the representative of the women, argued that women and children are always at the receiving end whenever war ensues. She told the magistrate that men abandon their wives and children during war to pursue an unnecessary military career, which makes their wives and children to suffer severely.
They are persuasive arguments because she was able to convince the magistrate who in turn condemned the men for not adequately monitoring their wives.
Another type of love that was expressed in the play was Mania-obsessive love. This is evident from the fact that the women found it difficult to control themselves and had to go back to their men for sex.
Pragma- enduring love, was also another type of love expressed in the play because the men were very determined to continue sexual affairs with their wives despite continual denial.
Answer: GERMANY
<u>Explanation</u>:
The Zimmerman telegram was a note sent by Germany's foreign minister to the ambassador of Mexico, seeking alliance with Mexico against the United States if the US entered the war. Learning of the telegram increased concerns by the US about Germany's intentions, and led to declaration of war.
Further detail:
The reasons that led to the US declaring war against Germany in 1917:
- In January, 1917, Germany had resumed its policy of unrestricted submarine warfare. Germany had halted its attacks on non-military vessels (which it suspected of carrying military supplies) after the furor over the sinking of the Lusitania in 1915. But now Germany was resuming attacks by its U-boats.
- In February, 1917, the "Zimmerman Telegram" was intercepted by British intelligence and shared with the US. Germany's foreign minister, Arthur Zimmerman, had telegraphed an offer to Mexico's ambassador seeking Mexico's support in war vs. the United States in exchange for getting land back from the US.
- On April 2, 1917, President Woodrow Wilson made a powerful speech to Congress in which he argued that the nation needed to enter the war "to make the world safe for democracy." Wilson's speech was powerfully convincing, and four days later, Congress declared war.
