He usually affiliated with the</span>Democrats<span>, but flirted with the </span>Whig Party<span> and considered running for the presidency in </span>1824<span> and </span>1844<span>. As a "war hawk", he agitated in Congress for the </span>War of 1812<span> to defend American honor against Britain. Near the end of the war, he successfully delayed a vote on US Treasury notes being issued, arguing that the bill would not pass if the war were to end in the near future; the day of the vote, Congress received word from New York that the war was over. As Secretary of War under President </span>James Monroe<span>, he reorganized and modernized the War Department, building powerful permanent bureaucracies that ran the department, as opposed to patronage appointees and did so while trimming the requested funding each year.</span>

Ancient Egyptians explained mysteries of nature and actions of their many gods<br> true or false?
Bogdan [553]

Answer:     True

Explanation:  The ancient Egyptians, like many other peoples of the ancient times, were polytheists. In particular, the Egyptians believed and worshiped about 2000 different gods, among whom there was also a hierarchy, as well as among humans. Thus, certain gods of the highest and higher rank were foreseen for Pharaoh and the clergy, while ordinary people also worshiped certain gods peculiar to them.

The multitude of different gods tells us that all events, from ordinary, everyday, through periodic and even mysterious and supernatural, were attributed to the gods. Thus, the periodic outflow of the Nile and the creation of fertile soil was a gift from the gods, as well as unforeseen floods were punishment from the gods. The good and bad years in terms of wealth and abundance versus poverty were also an act of the gods, as well as many of the mysteries of nature, inexplicable on scientific principles to humanity back then, everything was an act of the gods.
