What was the name of the small group of Jews that was especially opposed to Hellenism and Roman rule?

SpyIntel [72]

Zealots

Explanation:

The Zealots were radical groups of Jewish patriots, who had been active in Judea and Galilee since the beginning of the 1st Century.
Today, the name "zealot" refers to fervent supporters of some doctrine, religious or political group, who fanatically work for the cause to which they are loyal.
Jewish zealots fought against Roman rule by organizing guerrilla detachments and inciting uprisings in cities. The most radical of them also organized the killings, which targeted not only Roman officials but also their allies among Jews.
The various groups of zealots often clashed with each other and accounted for cruel methods in the struggle for domination. When they conquered the region, they used cruel terror not only against Roman allies, but also against the wicked and those who condemned the armed rebellion.

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

Oklahoma was the first state forbidding people to publicly hide behind hoods and masks.

Explanation:

Governor Walton of Oklahoma dedicated himself to eliminating the Ku Klux Klan from his state in the years following WWI. However, his methods were considered extreme and controversial by many. This led to his impeachment on 1922. However, the publicity campaign that he had initiated showed everyone how dangerous and hateful the Klan could be. This led to the passage of a law that forbade people from publicly hiding behind masks or hoods. This made Oklahoma the first state to "unmask" the Klan.
