The historian should: A) Study ancient Roman culture to learn more about Roman attitudes toward violence and slavery.

To learn any subject that involves history, it is very important to know the context as many things change depending on the period and place selected. By studying Roman culture he will be closer to undestanding the values that were learned and exalted. He would probably learn that being a slave was very common and rarely questioned. The way death is undestanded might have changed as well.

In this way the historian can take some distance from his own values and preconceptions and have a broader understanding of the topic chosen.

What’s the difference between unitary, confederate, and federal government?
adelina 88 [10]
A unitary system of government, or unitary state, is a state governed by a single entity. A confederate government system is a relationship (sometimes loose) between a smaller number of political units. More of an agreement than anything. Finally a federal government is a system that divides power between a strong national government and smaller local government.

All three of these are completely different things.

How did Thomas Jefferson overcome constitutional dilemmas faced over the Louisiana purchase?
Doss [256]
<span>Thomas Jefferson had always feared the costs of loose construction of the powers delegated to the national government in the Constitution, and the Constitution was silent about acquiring lands from other countries. Jefferson urged bringing the issue to the people to approve with a constitutional amendment, but Congress disregarded his draft amendments. The Senate ratified the Louisiana Purchase Treaty in October of 1803. While Jefferson did his best to follow what he believed was proper constitutional procedure, not enough of his contemporaries agreed with him and he eventually assented.

What was Chamberlain referring to and why do you suppose many felt the need to keep the peace at any cost?
MrMuchimi

Answer: "I believe peace is for our time."

Explanation:

With this sentence, Chamberlain sought to appease his citizens from the windows of his residence. After meeting with Hitler, attended by diplomatic representatives of France and Italy, the prime minister was quite optimistic. However, it soon turned out he was wrong because German planes would hover over British skies. Some historians think that Chamberlain was gullible concerning Hitler's wills. On the other hand, Churchill was continually warning of the threat from Germany. The preceding sentence can be seen as a wish of the British Prime Minister, but the reality turned out to be different. After Churchill's doubts became clear, Chamberlain resigned, and Winston Churchill led the country during the war.
