Answer:

Xerxes I

Explanation:

Xerxes the Great, son of Darius I ruled the Persian empire as it had achieved its largest size.

He commanded a failed invasion to Greece, as the Battle of Thermopylae records him for being unable to push the initiative onwards. He left losing to the Greeks at the Battle of Salamis in 480 bce.

 Ruling from 486 BC until 465 BC he controlled a handful of nations that included the lands shown in the map below:

These nations peacefully coexisted during his administration but it was impossible for a large time to keep control and expand as it ocurred after his death.

Xerxes I also appears as a wise king in the biblical records in the book of Esther. Roman historians regard him a special character as he chose to call himself simply 'king of the Persians and the Medes'.

He led the completion of important key projects like Susa and Persepolis

Why was the city of mecca important? select one:
Afina-wow [57]

The correct answer is:

D. It was the site of the Kaaba, where pilgrims congregated.

Explanation:

The city of Mecca is the holiest city in the religion of Islam because it is where Muhammad was born and because<em> The Kaaba (the most important mosque which was built in a cuboid form by Abraham and his son Ishmael</em>) is located in this city. Mecca is considered the place where angels visit and mercy falls.

In the religion of Islam, there are five pillars (faith, five daily prayers, charity, the fast of Ramadan and pilgrimage). The Hajj is the annual pilgrimage where Muslims go to the Mecca mainly to visit The Kaaba during the last month of the Muslim lunar year, and lasts for five days. Muslims face the direction of The Kaaba when they pray not because they worship The Kaaba, but because it is the place of worship of the one God, Allah.

Philip of Valois and Edward III both claimed right to the Spanish throne after the death of Philip IV's last son.
Savatey [412]
The answer is false because  as this conflict revolved around the French throne and not the Spanish. EdwardÃ?s claim of inheriting it through his motherÃ?s bloodline was denied due to Salic Law and the throne was given to Charles, the Count of Valois.
