Answer: Jefferson's role in the Declaration of Independence is one of his greatest legacies.

Explanation:

Thomas Jefferson was one of the most educated presidents of the united states. He was fluent in five languages, wrote about twenty thousand letters throughout his life, was interested in architecture, music, and more. The Continental Congress appointed a five-person commission to draft the declaration, and Jefferson was one of those people.

Relying on other documents such as the Virginia Declaration of Rights and local calls for independence, Jefferson wrote a startling statement of the colonists' right to rebel against the British government and base their claim on the assumption that all people are equal and have inalienable rights to life. Freedom and the pursuit of happiness. Jefferson maintained his prominent role in writing a vital document of the American Revolution and, in fact, of the United States.

In the Middle Ages, Europeans’ lives were guided not by the laws of governments as we know them today, but by the unifying force
Elanso [62]

Answer:

C. Christian

Explanation:

During the Middle Ages, Europe was largely under the command of the Christian Church. The Church had very big power, political, social, economic, and it used it in its advantage in order to control pretty much everything on the continent where it had its power. This unfortunately led to the Middle Ages to become Dark Ages, as the Church was only interested about promoting what was in its interest in order to be more powerful, and it was using very violent methods if someone tried to oppose it. During this period, Europe regressed significantly, and the continent was largely isolated from any new inventions, technologies, scientific progress etc.

The Boxers in China created rebellion to
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

The rebels, referred to by Westerners as Boxers because they performed physical exercises they believed would make them able to withstand bullets, killed foreigners and Chinese Christians and destroyed foreign property.

As the Western powers and Japan organized a multinational force to crush the rebellion, the siege stretched into weeks, and the diplomats, their families and guards suffered through hunger and degrading conditions as they fought to keep the Boxers at bay. By some estimates, several hundred foreigners and several thousand Chinese Christians were killed during this time. On August 14, after fighting its way through northern China, an international force of approximately 20,000 troops from eight nations (Austria-Hungary, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Russia, the United Kingdom and the United States) arrived to take Beijing and rescue the foreigners and Chinese Christians.
