Why do you think the declaration of independence outlines a political philosophy

History
1 answer:
KATRIN_1 [288]3 years ago
7 0

Because the writers of the declaration were trying to rid themselves of a British government who treated them unfairly. The document clearly states that the government is chosen and only governs because of the consent of the governed. It was a political philosophy because it was the first major democratic statement of the time.

Put the following events of the Punic Wars
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

1- Rome seeks control of Sicily - 264 BC

2- Roman navy defeats Carthage off the coast of Sicily - 241 BC

3- Hannibal defeats the Romans at Cannae - 216 BC

4- Spain rebels against Carthaginian rule - 206 BC

5- Scipio attacks Carthage - 202 BC

6- Carthage is burned by Roman soldiers - Spring 146 BC

Explanation:

The Punic Wars were a series of three ancient wars (from 264 to 146 BC) between the sea and commercial power of Carthage and the young Roman Empire, which emerged victorious from this conflict.

The Carthaginians were a long-established seafaring people that controlled the western Mediterranean. Carthage, located in what is now Tunisia. When Rome saw an opportunity to get a bridgehead in Sicily, Carthage confronted it because it saw their own possessions in the west of the island at risk. This initial local conflict expanded into a struggle for hegemony in the western Mediterranean during the First and Second Punic Wars. It lasted 43 years and was operated by both sides vigorously and with great resources.  

Although Rome was on the brink of defeat several times, it ultimately won both wars due to its ultimately superior human and material reserves, whereas Carthage emerged from it in a noticeably weakened manner. Nevertheless, the Roman conservatives under Marcus Porcius Cato the Elder allegedly feared the enemy's resuscitation and massively favored Carthage's North African rivals. Finally, the Romans eliminated the Carthaginian state in the Third Punic War, which ended in 146 BC.

North America has four major deserts: Great Basin, Mohave, Chihuahuan and Sonoran. All but the Sonoran Desert have cold winters. Freezing temperatures are even more limiting to plant life than is aridity, so colder deserts are poorer in both species and life forms, especially succulents.

The four North American deserts

The Great Basin Desert (plate 10) is both the highest-elevation and northernmost of the four and has very cold winters. The seasonal distribution of precipitation varies with latitude, but temperatures limit the growing season to the summer. Vegetation is dominated by a few species of low, small-leafed shrubs; there are almost no trees or succulents and not many annuals. The indicator plant (the most common or conspicuous one used to identify an area) is big sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata), which often grows in nearly pure stands over huge vistas. (Such cold shrub/deserts in the "Old World" are called steppes.)

The Mohave Desert (plate 11) is characterized largely by its winter rainy season. Hard freezes are common but not as severe as in the Great Basin Desert. The perennial vegetation is composed mostly of low shrubs; annuals carpet the ground in wet years. There are many species of these two life forms, but few succulents and trees grow there. The only common tree species is the characteristic joshua tree (Yucca brevifolia), an arborescent (treelike) yucca that forms extensive woodlands above 3000 feet (900 m) elevation.

Though the Chihuahuan Desert (plate 12) is the southernmost, it lies at a fairly high elevation and is not protected by any barrier from arctic air masses, so hard winter freezes are common. Its vegetation consists of many species of low shrubs, leaf succulents, and small cacti. Trees are rare. Rainfall is predominantly in the summer, but in the northern end there is occasionally enough winter rain to support massive blooms of spring annuals. The Chihuahuan Desert is unexpectedly rich in species despite the winter cold.
