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.

Describe the process of Western Europe transforming from a unified Roman Empire in 330 to independent nation-states in 1500.
Nikitich [7]

The process that saw Western Europe going from a unified Roman Empire to independent nation-states was:

  • Roman empire weakens and barbarians take hold of Roman lands.
  • Barbarians establish numerous Kingdoms and nation-states.
  • Monarchs share power with nobles in the feudalistic system.
  • Black death weakens the power of nobles and increases that of monarchs.
  • Monarchs consolidate power and establish true nation-states.

<h3>How did Europe's nation-states form?</h3>

After the Roman empire broke up as a result of several factors including the incursions of barbarians, several kingdoms were formed.

These kingdoms expanded and contracted under the reign of kings who shared power with nobles. Eventually, the monarchs gained the upper hand and established independent nation-states.

What was joseph galloway's purpose in writing the letter to the new york gazette on august 1765
Nina [5.8K]

Galloway's purpose in writing the letter was to point out his solution to the problem of colonists resisting the imposition of taxes by the British government. It was the first impulse of what would later be known as the Galloway's Plan of Union, which consisted in creating a parliament of American colonists who would oversee the decisions the British parliament had for the new continent.

In the letter, Galloway recognized the burden of sustaining the colonies  as being a reasonable cause for the United Kingdom to tax colonists, but recognized the inability of the later to pay due to the trading restrictions set by the English.

He suggested that if colonists considered the impositions too heavy, they should refer to more rational methods than rioting to let the British understand that they couldn't pay the taxes, for example by sending American representatives to the British parliament.
