Answer:

Among the options given on the question the correct answer is otion A.

It Was Written By The Colonists To Ask The King To Protect Their Rights And To Tell Him They Wanted Peace. It Was Rejected By The King.

Explanation: The Olive Branch petition was a petition adopted by the continental congress to the British king which was adopted on July 5,1775 and was signed three days later.

The purpose of the petition was to avoid the war between the thirteen American colonies and the British.This petition affirmed the American loyalty to the Great Britain and asked the King George III to protect the rights of colonists. They also wanted to avoid the war by affirming the loyalty to the British king.But the  British king rejected to read the letter and declared the proclamation of rebellion and announced the American colonies as the  rebellion states.

Xia (2205 to 1575 BC) - The first dynasty in China, very little is known about the Xia.

Shang (1570 to 1045 BC) - The Shang ruled much of the area along the Yellow River. Their last capital city was the great city of Yin.

Zhou (1045 to 256 BC) - The longest ruling dynasty in the history of China, the Zhou first used the Mandate of Heaven to justify their rule. Much of the land was ruled by feudal lords who were relatives of the Zhou family.

Qin (221 BC to 206 BC) - The beginning of the Chinese Empire, Shi Huangdi became the first Chinese Emperor. Although this was a short dynasty much was accomplished including the beginning of the Great Wall; standards were set for weights, measures, and money; many roads and canals were built; and a single type of writing was used throughout the country. All of these advancements would be used in future dynasties to make China strong.

Han (206 BC to 220 AD) - The Han dynasty established the civil service to create a strong and organized government. Paper and porcelain were also invented during this time. The Han also embraced Confucianism, poetry, and literature.
