Before the French Revolution, French society was structured in three estates: the clergy, the nobility and the third estate, which was composed by the commoners, peasants, and merchants. A member of the bourgeoisie during this time, in the 18th century, was a rich person from the third estate, often merchants and artisans. Normally, in spite of their wealth, they were excluded from the political decisions and had no privileges, since the power was in the hands of the nobility. Thus, the bourgeoisie was the social progressive class that supported a constitutional government and natural right, as opposed to the Law of Privilege and rule by divine right claimed by the nobles and clergy.

Nobles, on the other hand, formed the second estate according to a feudal social stratification. They were benefited by this social configuration based on, what they believed was, a divine right to rule. Therefore, a noble at this period was an aristocrat related to the royalty and the Church and had the highest status in the French and European society. They normally owned large extensions of land and had many peasants at their service, they were the only ones to have the privilege of hunting and were exempt of paying direct land taxes that commoners landowners were obliged to pay.

The social order of pre-Revolutionary France was composed of three states: the 1st state was made up of clergymen, the 2nd state included all the nobility, and the 3rd state was formed by the rest of the population of France, including the peasantry, the bourgeoisie, and the city workers.

The experiences of the nobility and the bourgeoisie were very different during this period. The nobiity included around 1-2% of the population of the country. They were mostly exempt from taxes and for the most part, did not have a job. On the other hand, the bourgeoisie was a large percentage of the population, and carried a significant tax burden. This class was the most educated and wealthiest part of the 3rd State, and they resented the privileges of the nobles, in particular the tax exemptions. The conflict between these classes was a reason for the French Revolution.

How many electors does each state receive in the Electoral college? Why? ​
nignag [31]

Answer:

A state's number of electors equals the number of representatives plus two electors for the senators the state has in the United States Congress.

Explanation:

The Electoral College is the process by which the states and District of Columbia elect the president of the United States. Each state is represented by a number of electors equal to the size of its congressional delegation. There are 538 electors in total. To win the Electoral College, a candidate must receive a majority at least 270 electoral votes

The Electoral College will meet in mid-December to cast their votes after the general election on November 3, 2020. Although there is no constitutional provision or federal law requiring electors to vote in accordance with the election results in their state, electors typically vote for their state's popular vote winner. Some states have provisions permitting the disqualification and replacement of an elector whose vote deviates from the state's popular vote.

#1) In this quotation, Du Bois disagrees with Booker T. Washington’s accommodationist approach because Du Bois is expressing that
Answer: Du Bois did not think blacks should submit to discrimination while patiently working for equality but should firmly oppose it. He argued that social change could be accomplished by developing the small group of college-educated blacks he called "the Talented Tenth". Booker T. Washington urged blacks to accept discrimination for the time being and concentrate on elevating themselves through hard work and material prosperity. He believed in education in the crafts, industrial and farming skills and the cultivation of the virtues of patience, enterprise and thrift.

Discuss the two main ideas—people are made right with God by faith alone, and selling indulgences is an abuse of church power.
zheka24 [161]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

You are asking to discuss the two statements.

1.- People are made right with God by faith alone.

This idea is contained in Romans 3:28.

The idea that is conveyed through Romans 3:28 is that one thing is the worship and obedience of God, and another thing is teh obedience of the law. One is divine, It is God's will. The other is from the Earth, the law that exists in every society.

So the focus of humans must be on God's will and do as his will. The law of men is important but it is not in the same category of divine law.

2.- Selling indulgences is an abuse of church power.

This is one of the most important critics Protestants made against the Catholic church.

Indeed it was one of the main claims Martin Luther refer to when he wrote his essay "95 Thesis," in which he accuses the pope of selling indulgences as one of the worst things of the Catholic church. Martin Luther was a German monk that initiated the Protestant movement that generated the schism in the Christian Church.
