Also known as the "Father of History". While many men are credited with "shaping" the story, one can be said to have "created" it. Herodotus developed the means by which we in the Western world can know and evaluate history and its most important moments. Born in Halicarnassus, Asia Minor, he played an important role in the revolution against tyrant Lydames. He later moved to Athens, where he began to systematically write down the history of his own time - particularly the wars between Greece and Persia - and the facts that preceded it. Although previous events had already been recorded, Herodotus is considered the "Father of History" because he was the first man to attempt an orderly and objective study of the interrelationships between historical events. Herodotus traveled to Egypt and traveled the Mediterranean, studying the cultures of these regions and recording the facts as faithfully as possible for the time. In theorizing about history, he applied the traditional Greek idea of moderation, or middle ground, that equilibrium is desirable, and excess and imbalance are the recipe for disaster. Because of this theory, the arrogant Xerxes I was inevitably doomed to defeat.
Answer:
Yes the New Economic Policy allowed government to tax peasants on a given percentage of their produce.
Explanation:
the Bolshevik government adopted this policy. It was the economic policy of the Soviet Union from 1921 to 1928.
Peasants were allowed to own and cultivate lands while paying taxes to the state. In the NEP, agriculture, retail trade, and small-scale light industry were returned to private ownership and management while the state retained control of heavy industry, transport, banking, and foreign trade.
from 1928-1929 there were grain shortages, Joseph Stalin forcibly eliminated private control of land and returned it to government control.
I'm not sure but extract is a synonym of abstract
