Option C, Emperor Zhu Di build such large ships, and so many of them because he wanted to show other nations that China was a very powerful and successful country .

<u>Explanation: </u>

From 1405 to 1433, royal Chinese pretender Zheng undertook seven unparalleled ocean voyages to the Emperor of the Ming.

Throughout the Mongol Yuan dynasty, the continuation of the Ming Dynasty was the legacy of vast shipyards, numerous professional shipyard staff and sleek military technologies from the previous dynasty. The Mongol period promoted commerce and maritime exchange.

Since the emperor of Yongle wants to impress Ming's dominance on the universe and demonstrate China's wealth and value, he requested that ships be made much bigger than they needed for the trips.

Answer:

The correct answer is D. All of the choices are correct.

Explanation:

The Third Republic was the political system introduced in France after the fall of Napoleon III in 1870, which lasted until World War II and the creation of the Vichy government under Philippe Petain on July 10th, 1940.

The Third Republic was a republican parliamentary democracy, but its creation was marked by great disagreement between proponents of the monarchy and the republic. Political life under the Third Republic was marked by weak coalitions and frequent changes of government. Moreover, it was marked by the Dreyfus affair, which created deep divisions in political circles.

How did Alexander Palmer justify the Palmer Raids of 1919 and 1920?
lilavasa [31]
Alexander Palmer justified the Palmer Raids of 1919 and 1920, because he believed there was a serious sense of urgency in raiding and deporting people he perceived were a threat to American ideals and believed it was his duty to protect the United States from Communism. He did not want to be stopped from this project and appointed people to take over when he was unable to lead the raids himself.

What political circumstances in Europe lead to world war 1
vovikov84 [41]
The reasons why World War I happened are multiple and complex. One important is the fact that Germany lacked any real colonies prior to World War I, at least compared to the other nations which had massive and important colonies such as Great Britain or France. Another thing was general dissatisfaction and nationalism within the Austro-Hungarian empire.
