How did Frederick William I gain the loyalty of the Prussian

History

6 0

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although no options were provided, we can say the following.

Frederick William I gained the loyalty of the Prussian nobles because he gave them positions in the Prussian government and the military.

That was his way of getting loyalty and service to him. Frederick William I, King of Prussia from 1713 to 1740, knew that the nobles or Junkers (as they were known in that time) had ambitions and were full of greed, control, and power. So the best way to align them to his crown was to offer them positions of power and influence.

These have been the classic methods used by absolutists governments to "buy" the loyalty form wealthy families or even, the opposite factions of a government. The history of the European kingdoms was full of these situations.

In which time period/movement was the painting, Martyrdom of St. Philip, created?
Hitman42 [59]

I suppose you are referring to the version of the subject painted by Jusepe de Ribera, a Spanish painter working in the 17th century. This painting was created in 1639 in the Baroque style (or movement). It depicts the moment when the apostle Philip is about to be crucified. The contrast of light and shadow, the monumental figures, and the dramatic topic are all characteristics of the Baroque style. The painting was commissioned as a gift to the then King of Spain, Philip IV, whose patron saint was Philip the Apostle.

What was the main problem preventing New Mexico from becoming a state in the 1800s?
Scilla [17]
The main reason that New Mexico faced such difficulty in becoming a state in the 1800s was because Congress was unwilling to accept New Mexico's application for statehood. People were suspicious of the area's inhabitants and their varying background.
