<em>Dura-Europos</em> was an ancient city located in the vicinity of village of <em>Salhiyé</em>, Syria, along the Euphrates river, close to the Iraq border.
Christian places needed to be discreet or secret around 240 A.D.; thus earlier congregations worshiped in private houses of wealthy members; some of those houses were converted into churches, and the house in <em>Dura-Europos</em> was one of those conversions.
So the purpose of the frescoes was to celebrate Christian worship secretly, and to illustrate the old testament writings, mostly for the illiterate people who couldn't read the sacred books, as a medium of what they called "<em>hope of new spiritual birth</em>".

Answer:
Two words that I think wouuld describe the French Revolution is inspired and coup d'etat
Explanation:
Inspired because the French went in a nosedive in economics becuase of all the money their terrible king was giving to the American Revolution and the French who were no heavily taxed and poor were inspired to do a revolt of their own.
Coup d'etat (means a sudden and decisive change of government by force) because that is exactly what happened; the French took the goverment power by force which was a sudden change in the goverment.
After Mexico's defeat on the Mexican-American War (1846-1848), the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo came into action. The U.S. was recquired to pay 15 million dollars as compensation for damages, while taking ownership of the territories of California, half of New Mexico, most of Arizona, Nevada, Utah and parts of Wyoming and Colorado.
Mexicans that were settled in these territories, had the choice to relocate within the new limits of their country, or stay and receive American citizenship with full civil rights. This had quite big implications in U.S. culture as it became more racially diverse. In the following censuses between 1850 and 1920 most annexed mexicans were counted as "white", but in reality, segregation only grew with time and continues to do so until this day, with mexican-native americans being considered foreigners almost universally. At the same time, mexican migration to these areas also continued to rise over the years, making the contrast bigger.
Politically, we can say Mexico wasn't in a bad position in terms of their negotiation power. The U.S. had shown itself hesitant to annex Mexico's territories and having deep domestic divisions in regards to the aims and justification for the expansion. However, the military power of the U.S. overshadowed all of that and their victory was definite. The treaty established a pattern of political inequality between the two countries, and this lopsided relationship has stalked Mexican-U.S. relations ever since.
Hope this helps!
