<span>Good Morning!
The main criticism of imperialism at the time was because of its violating nature of the fundamental principle of the Republic: the consensus of the governed. The problem was not, therefore, economic or territorial, but ran into the political question, since it violated the principle of nonintervention.

It's C. <span>It is the Islamic word for an internal struggle against evil or a physical struggle with non-Muslims.
The word "jihad" comes from the arabic language and it means "to strive or struggle". We apply this word to striving to be a better person or to struggle with our faith and striving to make it stronger. Back in time, during the time of Muhammed (peace be upon him), Jihad meant the same thing, but it also applied to defending their nation from the attacks of the other Arab clans (one of which is known as the Quraysh). Hence "struggling and striving" to defend their nation.
The way some radical "muslim" terrorists use it today is not right at all. That's not what Islam teaches, and those terrorists are not really considered Muslims by other Muslims and Muslim scholars. We disown those people as they are putting our religion in a bad light.
Also, on a side note, please don't always just blindly listen and believe what the media says. Please do research on your own and you will find that how the media portrays Islam is not true. It is actually a very peaceful religion. In the Quran (the holy book of Islam) a comparison is made that says if you were to unjustly kill one person, it is as if you have killed all of humanity (the level of sin you receive for it) and if you save the life a single person it is as if you have saved all of humanity (the level of reward and blessings you get for it).
Thanks for reading this. I'm glad I got to answer this question for you. Good luck and have a beautiful day!</span>
Answer:
As we have experiences, both negative and positive, they impact the formation of our thoughts. This in turn impacts our use of language. If we have negative experiences, we will form more negative uses of our language. Dr. Benjamin Whorf stated that our language then determines the type of person we will become as we have a multitude of experiences. And depending on the type of language we learn growing up, we will see an impact on our development. German, for example, is a very rough and cruel language. Which is why the Germans have instigated two world wars. Historians have criticized Whorf's theory because of the prejudice it showed towards certain cultures.
Explanation:
Alea iacta est ("The die is cast") is a variation of a Latin phrase (iacta alea est) attributed by Suetonius to Julius Caesar who pronounced it in the year 49 B.C. when he was leading his army across the Rubicon river in the current territories of Northern Italy. Subsequently, he entered in Italy heading his army and defying the Roman Senate and it meant the beginning of the civil war versus Pompey and the Optimates.
- Plutarch, referred to the same event in his written testimonies and reported the phrase but stating it was pronounced in Greek instead of Latin and that its translation meant: <em>'Let the die be cast'.</em>
- Suetonius described the same situation, reporting a very similar phrase but not exactly the same. Let's include the exact excerpt of his writings where he did so.
<em>Caesar: '... iacta alea est,' inquit.</em>
<em>Caesar said, "The die has been cast."</em>
Thefore there are two very similar versions of the same historical events. Usually the Latin version is the most widely known, as the Latin language was more widespread all over Europe and gave rise to all the current family of Latin languages (Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, etc).
