As far as I am concerned Gao was not one of the Songhay Empire's major ones but I bet two answers should be acceptable in this question. I also think that you can include the third option from the scale represented above because <span>Algiers were quite far away on north so they couldn't be the part of the Songhay. </span>
The correct answer is D. Solemn
Explanation
The tone is the name of the literary technique by which the writings convey to the reader their emotions and point of view regarding the topic that is being treated in the text. Also, a solemn tone refers to the tone that is intended to celebrate or highlight something in particular of text displayed as something extraordinary, with a script adorned with majestic words that make the reader as if they were facing something incredible, for example "he had an unbearable smell of the outdoors, the back side of his wings was strewn with parasites and his main feathers had been mistreated by terrestrial winds". According to the above, the text has a solemn tone because the author refers to this episode as a fantastic event. So, the correct answer is D. Solemn.
Germany signed the <em>Treaty of Versailles</em> with the Allies,officially ending World War 1.The British economist John Maynard Keynes left the treaty conference in protest. In his The Economic Consequences of the Peace 1919, Keynes predicted that the stiff war reparations and other harsh terms imposed on Germany by the Treaty would lead to financial collapse of Germany,which in turn would have serious economic and political repercussions on Europe and the World.
On June 5,1919 ,Keynes wrote a note to Lloyd George PM of England,that he was resigning his post in protest of the impending devastation of Europe.
In his book Keynes wrote""if we aim at the impoverishment of Central Europe,vengeance,I dare say will not limp.Nothing can then delay for very long the forces of Reaction and the despairing convulsions of Revolution,before which the horrors of the later German war will fade into nothing,and which will destroy, whoever is victor,the civilisation and the progress of our generation.""
