Answer:

The Captiol building was designed bases on neoclassical architecture with inspiration from Greek and Roman sophistication

Examples of Greek and Roman influences include;

1) The tall Corinthian columns from Greek architecture

2) Symmetrical shapes inspired by Roman architecture

3) Domed roofs from Roman architecture

4) Triangular pediments present in ancient Greek and Roman temples

Explanation:

Several of the foundational important public buildings in the United States of America where built between the 18th and 19th century when the architectural  style of the time were made up of Greek Revival as well as other Neoclassical styles.

The Capitol building construction was started 1793 in the tenure of President John Adams where the then Vice President, Thomas Jefferson proposed the that the Congress building should be structured in the form a Roman temple .

Select all of the following that apply to the selection and evaluation of realistic fiction.Group of answer choices
Drupady [299]

Answer:

B) Is the story believable?

Explanation:

All of them can be used in a realistic fiction (using all of them may make a better story) but I think the only one that is absolutely  necessary is B, making the story realistic.

A realistic fiction story is a story written about events that did not happened but may as well have had happened, so the key into writing a realistic fiction story is the capability of the writer to make his or her characters, and the situations around them, as plausible as possible.

As I said, all of the choices can be used into the story writting, so, even if the second one is the only one absolutely necessary, all the others have the power to<u> make your story a better and more interesting one.</u>

Hope this helps!

Why were black codes created?
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

The Black Codes sometimes called Black Laws, where laws governing the conduct of African Americans. The best known of them was passed in 1865 and 1866 by Southern states, after the American Civil War, in order to restrict African Americans' freedom and to compel them to work for low wages. Although Black Codes existed before the Civil War and many Northern states had them, it was the Southern U.S. states that codified such laws in everyday practice. In 1832, James Kent wrote that "in most of the United States, there is a distinction in respect to political privileges, between free white persons and free colored persons of African blood; and in no part of the country do the latter, in point of fact, participate equally with the whites, in the exercise of civil and political rights."

Hope this helps!

Analyze how islam spread along southeast asias trade routes
marissa [1.9K]
I don't know the exact answer but i will try to help. I believe because as the Islam traded with asia, the merchants had to take long, harsh trips to get to South east Asia and so many stayed and sold their contents there instead of risking their health and even their lives to travel back to their home.
