The correct answer is letter A

Herod the Great was the king of Judea at the time Jesus was born. He was known to be brutal and to have all the little boys in Bethlehem killed. Herod had several descendants, some of whom are mentioned in the Bible.

Herod was an Idumean (a descendant of the Edomites, a people who lived in southern Israel) converted to Judaism. Not being an Israelite, he had no right to the throne but, with the help of the Roman empire, conquered power in 37 BC Herod became the vassal king of Rome, with dominion over the Jews.

During his reign, Herod did several construction works in Judea. He founded the cities of Caesarea Maritima and Sebaste, built palaces and fortresses and built public places that energized the region. Herod was also dedicated to building temples for various gods of different peoples. Among the Jews, he was known for renovating and expanding the temple in Jerusalem.

Savatey [412]

A major problem for the United States after the Revolutionary War (1775-1783) was that tens of thousands of Loyalists, due to the climate of violence and fear that still existed after the conflict (particularly in the South), fled the country, retreating with the British army to Britain and other parts of the British Empire (Jamaica, Bahamas, India) and also to Canada, settling primarily in the regions of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. Since those Loyalists were often wealthy and educated, and they had been part of the thriving and cohesive upper class that controlled much of the industry and the commerce in areas such as New York or Boston, the social structure of the colonies changed significantly after their departure.
