Answer:

The rings that she collects from her lovers is a simple proof to show that women can do whatever they want and attain whatever they desire.

Explanation:

In "The Arabian Nights", the two brothers had just experienced that their respective wives had cheated on them. Shahrayar's wife had slept with the cook while Shahzaman's wife had slept with a slave. So, they both secretly went to the desert to look for a man whose life is more wretched than theirs.

But their encounter with the genie/ demon shows that their lives are not that wretched as they thought. The genie had a beautiful as a wife, but enclosed in a glass box. Whenever he sleeps, she comes out and sleep with other men, 96 in all. She also sleeps with the two men making the count to 98 for she keeps the rings of her victims/ conquests. She declares "to think that jealousy and restraint can preserve a mistress, notwithstanding thy vigilance." This decision to collect the rings of the men (most probably as trophies) is proof to show that women can do whatever they want and are capable of achieving whatever they desire.

Answer:

Greek city-states developed different forms of governance with very different political structures and strengths.

Greek colonization led to the spread of the Greek language and Greek culture, but it also resulted in tensions with the neighboring Persian empire, culminating in the Persian Wars.

Athens developed democratic institutions and a culture of philosophy, science, and culture; it emerged as a powerful state and allied with other city-states, forming the Delian League.

Resistance to Athens’ power among the other Greek city-states, particularly Sparta, prompted the Peloponnesian War.
