Answer:
Explanation:
Massacre: an indiscriminate and brutal slaughter of people.
“an indiscriminate and brutal slaughter of many people” Many is of course “A large quantity”. So there we have it, certainly more than a couple but if it gets to be say 100,000, which is definitely a large number, I suspect that might be encroaching into the realms of genocide.
OK so if you happen upon a car crash and there are bodies spread over the scene, 2 from each of the 2 cars, then you would immediately spot, just by looking there were 4 people involved, but if it was a pair of coaches each with 52 passengers and they were all spread around the scene you wouldn’t be able to put a number to it by just sweeping your eyes across the mess, perhaps then it is getting to be a massacre. Could that be a useful definition? If the number slaughtered is more than you can estimate merely with a look? I also think it needs to be within a definable area, like a football field, or a stadium or perhaps a town. If it involved a whole region of a country then it becomes Genocide, maybe.
Could it be then The indiscriminate and brutal slaughter of more people within a definable area than you can estimate readily with a sweep of your eyes.
Just a suggestion, so go gently on me ………….

<em>D. Restore dignity and independence to those countries.</em>
Explanation:
When the United States joined World War I on the side of the Allies, they didn't necessarily want to. President Woodrow Wilson was a pacifist, he strived for peace. He was against having the United States join a war, as he cared for his people and the country. After the Zimmerman Telegram, Wilson was left with no choice but to declare war.
Even during the war, Woodrow Wilson's peaceful approaches shined through. His main goal was to create peace, not only for the United States but for everyone. He wrote the Fourteen Points, which was an outline for peace on all sides.
The Fourteen Points were goals that were striving towards peace. Woodrow Wilson wanted German troops to be removed from lands like Belgium, so they could become independent and restore dignity to those countries. Not all people agreed with Wilson's approach, many thought Germany should have harsher repercussions after the war.
The correct answer is - B. The Mongolian conquest of Persia ended a golden age, which was a peak period of Islamic literature, philosophy, medicine, and art.
The Mongols conquered Persia and destroyed lot of cities, killed lot of people, and put end to the Islamic Caliphates, though it has to be said that the Mongols were actually provoked, and initially were not the ones that were seeking war.
By conquering the region, the Mongols put an end to the so called Islamic Golden Age, when the Islamic literature, philosophy, art, medicine, culture as a whole, was at its peak. Unfortunately, even after the Mongols left, the Muslim countries never got back to their glorious and forward thinking ways, and the reason for that is that some of the most influential Islamic scholars declared the math as a work of the devil, which pretty much cut all further development in the Middle Ages, and still has big negative effects in the present.
