Pericles was a leader and lawmaker in ancient Athens. While Athens was fighting the Peloponnesian War, he gave a famous speech c

alled the Funeral Oration. In his speech, he talked about Athenian democracy. Read the following excerpt from Pericles’s speech: Our constitution does not copy the laws of neighboring states; we are rather a pattern to others than imitators ourselves. Its administration favors the many instead of the few. . . . If we look to the laws, they afford equal justice to all in their private differences…class considerations not being allowed to interfere with merit; nor again does poverty bar the way, if a man is able to serve the state, he is not hindered by the obscurity of his condition. Based on the excerpt above, how does Pericles feel about Athenian democracy?

Paragraph on new kingdom and middle kingdom
matrenka [14]

The Middle Kingdom designates a period of ancient Egyptian civilization stretching from approximately 2030 to 1650 B.C. (Dynasty 11 through Dynasty 13). During this era, the cultural principles set out at the beginning of Egyptian civilization and codified during the Old Kingdom were reimagined, including the ideology of kingship, the organization of society, religious practices, afterlife beliefs, and relations with neighboring peoples. These transformations are attested to in architecture, sculpture, painting, relief decoration, stelae, jewelry, personal possessions, and literature.
