History

Vlad1618 [11]3 years ago
6 0

Joseph II of Austria, and emperor of the Holy Roman empire, can be considered as an enlightened despot because:

  • he was recognized by his contemporary fellow monarchs as a highly cultured man, in contrast with many monarchs prior to him who took no interest in learning and knowledge; he used his culture as an instrument to become a better ruler
  • he abolished servitude in his empire, an institution he believed anachronistic and unfair
  • he managed to do away with the political participation of the Catholic Church in the government and its business since he deemed the role of the Church was a spiritual one, not a secular one
  • he sponsored the arts (especially music which he enjoyed most) and commissioned one of the greatest musicians of all times, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart with the composition of several pieces of music, mostly operas
  • he carried out educational reforms
  • in a time of religious intolerance, he allowed his subjects to profess the religion of their choice and protected them with laws

Compare maps of the world in ancient times with current political maps.
nlexa [21]

The correct answer is A) Mexico

Explanation:

In the map, the Southwest Native American cultural region is shown in orange. In this map, the region is located in the Southwest of the U.S. which includes modern states such as Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas. Additionally, the region extends to the south of the United States, which is now Mexico. It is possible to know this because, in the second map, the territory of the U.S. is highlighted and if you compared the highlighted zone to the orange zone in the first map, the orange zone includes territory that is not part of the U.S. Thus, the correct answer is Mexico.
