The mandate of heaven was a claim by rulers that they where the divine ruler of an empire or kingdom, and that god themself placed them on the throne because they are great or righteous. Most famously this was used by Chinese rulers up until the fall of the Qing dynasty.

Answer:

The Mandate of Heaven (Tianming), also known as Heaven's Mandate, was the divine source of authority and the right to rule of China's early kings and emperors. The ancient god or divine force known as Heaven or Sky had selected this particular individual to rule on its behalf on earth.

The Zhou created the Mandate of Heaven: the idea that there could be only one legitimate ruler of China at a time, and that this ruler had the blessing of the gods. They used this Mandate to justify their overthrow of the Shang, and their subsequent rule.

Explanation:

The Mandate either said or implied three major things. (1) The right to rule is granted by the gods. This gave the ruler religious power. (2) The right to rule is only granted if the ruler cares about his people more than he cares about himself.

<span>Following the stock market crash, many industrial nations responded by imposing high tariffs. A tariff is simply just a type of tax that is applied to imports and exports that are traded between two sovereign states.

Which was not part of Karl Marx's beliefs according to Das Kapital or the Communist Manifesto?
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

D. Business owners should be taxed to pay for workers' retirement.

Explanation:

Karl Marx book 'Das Kapital' favours communalism, against Capitalism. He states that society comprises of two classes : Capitalists (Bourgeois) & Workers (Proletariat). Capitalists (entrepreneurs) owe all the factors of production, are entitled to profit and labour just gets paid in form of  'wages' for the good produced.

Marx suggests that 'materialistic interpretation of history' has always led to power in the hands of group having productive resources. Goods are produced according to labour engaged in making them as per 'labour theory of value'. Capitalists class tend to pay workers much less than their production value, retain 'surplus value' for 'capital accumulation' to grow themselves. And meanwhile labour class gets just subsistence wages.

The two classes struggle due to all above mentioned, lead to : workers revolt against capitalists, abolishment of personal property and suggest Socialism to be best socio political system. It doesn't suggest that ' Business owners should be taxed to pay for workers' retirement'

The other options of the question were A) He was shorter than average but appeared to have a scholarly face. B) He was extremely tall, muka taller than average, with a serious face. C) He was of average height and build, with a serious face.

The reading described Charles’s physical appearance as "He was large but not overly tall, with a merry face."

We are talking about Charlemagne, better known as Charles the Great. He was one of the greatest Franks and conquered a large portion of Western European territories. He supported the church and the pope, and everywhere he conquered, he forced people to convert to Christianity. Indeed, the relationship with the church was so good that Pope Leo III crown Charles as the emperor. This act increased the power and presence of the Catholic Church over Europe.
