How did empire-building benefit farm production?

Grace [21]

The correct answer is B) by providing more labor resources.

Empire-building benefited farm production by providing more labor resources.

Empire-building allowed the Emperors to expand their territories conquering new lands and having more servants to serve the king. This also meant having more labor resources, more hands ready to work in the farm fields to grow more crops, to produce more food for the empíre and trading purposes. Better crops and food production meant more trade, and more trade translated into more income and resources for the empire.

What effect did the king family have on the fate of kings mothers killer???

saw5 [17]

The King's family saved his life and spared him the death penalty.

Alberta Williams King, the mother of Martin Luther King, Jr. was shot and killed during a church service by Marcus Wayne Chenault six years after the association of her son (1974). She was 69 years old.

Her killer was a 23-year-old, college drop-out, black man from Ohio. He stated that he shot Mrs. King because she was a Christian and all Christians 'were his enemies'. His original target was Martin Luther King Sr., but he aimed at his wife because she was seated closer to him.

Chenault was sentenced to death but it was because of the King's family that his life was spared. The Kings are firmly opposed to the death penalty so they pushed for his sentence to be changed into life in prison. Chanault died in prison some years later after suffering a stroke.
