Both Warren Harding and Calvin Coolidge supported pro-business policies and only Harding's government became famous for scandals after his death. The right answer is D.
Harding died in 1923 most probably of a heart attack. His vice-president Calvin Coolidge took office as the 30th president of the United States.
They were both Republicans and conservatives. Harding supported laissez-faire and was firmly against the US joining the League of Nations.

The Anti-Reforms of Alexander III had three main components:
1) Repression of political opponents and religious minorities
2) Undoing some of the reforms of his father
3) And to restore Russia's position internationally.
The purpose of Russification was to rid Russia of western, particularly liberal, ideas that Alexander believed had weakened Russia and compromised its national identity - he wanted to reclaim Russia’s Russian-ness. To achieve this, many liberals and foreigners were exiled, books were banned and political meetings broken up. There was a religious aspect of Russification: Orthodox Christians were favoured over other religions in many ways, especially in Imperial appointments, and the Orthodox Church had to preach obedience to the Tsar, as well as being made to inform the authorities if anyone confessed to anything seditious in confession (previously confession had been confidential between parishioner and priest).
One of the main political anti-reforms was the neutering of the Zemstvos, the rural councils. In 1889, the powers that the Zemstvos had were removed; local magistrates were also removed and replaced by people who were directly appointed and answerable to the Minister of the Interior.
