Answer:

The Sumerian city-states maintained most of their conflict among cities calling free men to battle when it was needed.

Explanation:

In order to protect the city-states from their rivals the Sumerians called upon every free men to battle. It is important to add that they did not have an standing army, therefore,  there was no permanent military to defend the people. Each city-state had its own God and when conflicts arose the high priest and the King called upon the free men to forge their own weapons for battle. While they did have a few trained soldiers the majority was the population. They distinguished the trained military with the use of copper helmets. Furthermore, some conflicts arose due to the water canal developed by them. Some believed to have more control over it than others and blocked it for the water not to flow to other communities this was solved by the creation of a wall around the city. Among the weapons forged by the Sumerian free men were:

  • Knives
  • Bows
  • Slingshots
  • Axes
  • Among others.

Finally, the Sumerians attributed the fate of a battle to their Gods rather than to its priest.

according to the model of democracy, political parties are essential in making government responsive to public opinion. quizlet
son4ous [18]

Political parties express the public's complaints to the government while opposing it. They educate the populace on how the ruling parties operate. Therefore, political parties serve as a conduit between the populace and the executive branch. They establish a government and control it.

An organized collection of individuals with the desire to create a government is referred to as a political party. They run candidates for office and have the same philosophy and political views. They establish their objectives and promote them. Political parties are significant because they offer a wide range of candidate options during elections. Since there are no political parties and all elected officials are independent, no one will make any significant policy promises. Each autonomous delegate will carry out their own agenda, leading to chaos throughout the nation.

I believe the answer is: <span>Be patient and persistent

In such situation, parents should realize that since habits are developed overtime, they also need some time to revert/change those habits.
One thing that the parents do is start to make small changes in the dietary food (such as adding a little vegetables) and started to increase the quantity over time.</span><span>
