1) We have learned that the celts are the ones traced back to the beginning of Halloween (2000 years ago).

2) The celts celebrated this day because it marked the end of summer and harvest the beginning of a dark long and cold winter, the time of year that was often associated with human death.

3) The celts believed that the ghosts of the dead returned to earth.

4) example #1 they built Huge sacred bonfires, #2 they sacrificed animals and crops to the Celtic deities, 3# they wore costumes typically consisting of animal heads and skins and attempted to tell each other's fortune.

5) The Roman Empire had conquered the majority of the Celtic territory.

6) The religion of christianity had spread into the Celtic lands where it had started to blend in with supplanted the older Celtic rites.

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

Darius – was defeated by the Greeks at the Bay of Marathon

Xerxes – was defeated by the Greeks at the Bay Salamis

Cambises - one of the few generals in history to ever conquer and occupy Egypt

Cyrus – respected the customs and religions of the people he conquered

Explanation:

The Battle of the Marathon (490 BC) is a conflict between Athens and Platea with the Persian Empire during the Greco-Persian Wars. The battle ended with the complete victory of the Greek troops and marked the end of the First Persian Invasion of Greece. Persian King Darius and his army were defeated by the military assistance sent by Athens to the rebel Greeks in Ionia.

The Battle of Salamis was a naval battle between Greek city-states and the Persian Empire, ruled by King Xerxes in 480 BC. The battle ended with the decisive victory of the Greek fleet and it was the most important event for the second Persian invasion of Greece.

Cambyses was one of the few generals in history who had ever conquered Egypt. He was Achaemenid king of Persia conquered Egypt in 525.

King Cyrus was the Persian King of the Iranian Achaemenid dynasty, a warlord, legislator, and founder of the Persian Empire. He was considered a good king because he respected the tradition and religion of the nations he conquered. He respected all the nations he conquered, although they had to pay tribute.

LiRa [457]

Answer: Leaders agreed that a stronger national government was needed.

Explanation:

The American economy immediately after the American Revolution had a lot of subsistence farmers with little access to hard currency and as a result could not pay off debts they owed. Veterans from the war were in debt as well as they were finding it difficult to get money they were owed by the government.

This led to widespread discontent that boiled over to the Shay's rebellion. As the dissidents marched on a Federal armoury, the Federal government could do nothing as they had very limited powers and could not fund their soldiers as a result.

When the rebellion was eventually put down by state militia, people saw the need for a stronger national government that could react to such problems and more should the need arise.

Based on what you have learned in this lesson, write two to three sentences describing one success and one failure of Clinton’s

cupoosta [38]

When the Genocide Convention was passed by the United Nations in 1948, the world said, “Never again.”

But the history of the twentieth century instead proved that “never again” became “again and again.” The promise the United Nations made was broken, as again and again, genocides and other forms of mass murder killed 170 million people, more than all the international wars of the twentieth century combined.

Why? Why are there still genocides? Why are there genocidal massacres going on right now in southern Sudan by the Sudanese government against Dinka, Nuer, and Nuba; in eastern Burma by the Burmese government against the Karen; in the Democratic Republic of the Congo by both government and rebel forces against Tutsis, Banyamulenge, Hutus, Hema, and Lendu? Why has ethnic and religious hatred again reached the boiling point in Israel and Palestine; Côte d’Ivoire, and Burundi?

There are two reasons why genocide is still committed in the world:

1. The world has not developed the international institutions needed to predict and prevent it.

2. The world’s leaders do not have the political will to stop it.

In order to prevent genocide, we must first understand it. We must study and compare genocides and develop a working theory about the genocidal process. There are many Centers for the Study of Genocide that are doing that vital work – in Australia, Brussels, Copenhagen, Jerusalem, Montreal, Memphis, Minneapolis, New Haven, Nottingham, and elsewhere.

But studying genocide is not enough. Our next task should be to create the international institutions and political will to prevent it. Four institutions are needed: centers for early warning, programs for conflict transformation, standing forces for rapid intervention, and international courts for effective punishment.

1. The U.N. Security Council and key governments need strong, independent Early Warning systems to predict where and when ethnic conflict and genocide are going to occur, and to present policy options on prevention and intervention. The Brahimi report made by the special commission on U.N. Peace-keeping makes just such a recommendation, and it should be implemented. Selected country desk officers and top officials of the U.N. system now hold monthly “Framework for Coordination” to discuss current crises, but inadequate staffing prevents long-range strategic planning. There is not a single person at the United Nations whose responsible for genocide early warning and prevention. Who do you call? Ghostbusters.
