From pagan times, kings were considered divine, or ruled with divine help. In the Old-Testament monotheistic world are characteristic wise men or advisers who advised the king on important decisions and issues. These advisers were prophets who conveyed to the kings the will of God or message. In this way the kings were inviolable and no one should oppose the king's decisions or the law. Anyone who did this was against God.

The divine right of kings or the divine mandate is a political religious doctrine that gives legitimacy to the king. Therefore, it is not subject to any earthly authority, people, aristocracy. This means that only God can judge the king, and so is every rebellion against the king, opposing God's will.


Right answer is C. divine right

How did the allies win control of the atlantic ocean between 1941 and 1943
elena55 [62]

Answer:

Technology, convoy system, Ultra, use of Aircraft, Iceland, mass production of ships, Lend Lease, and a strong effort to win.

Explanation:

Technology: Radar, Sonar and radio direction finding or Huff-Duff, depth charges all advanced significantly and aided the finding of Submarines.

Convoy System: The British instituted the Convoy System at the start of hostilities based on their bad experience in World War 1. The Americans on the Eastern Seaboard did not start convoy system right away and paid the price.

Ultra: The Ultra Secret that the British were able to read much of the wireless communication of the Germans made a significant difference. The British gave a lot of credit to Huff-Duff and other deceptions to cover this.

Aircraft: Long range air patrols and Carrier based aircraft harried German Submarines and sank many.

Iceland: The British invaded Iceland in May 1940 and handed over to the Americans later. The air bases, radar sites and ports all helped the war effort even though Iceland technically was neutral throughout the War.

The American mass production of Liberty Ships helped replace ships faster than than they could be sunk.

Lend Lease made 50 older destroyers available to the British early in the war.

Churchill worried a lot about the Battle of the Atlantic and he gave it considerable attention motivating others.
