Answer:

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.

What name was given to the laws that segregated Texas after the<br> Civil War?
Maslowich

<em>Jim Crow laws.</em>

Explanation:

After the Civil War, segregation in the South was still very prevalent. Jim Crow laws were all over the South and were made to keep African-Americans and white people separate. Some of these laws included things like separate schooling for white and black children, different prisons, separate ticket booths, etc.

Black codes were also a very common thing in the South. These were much more harsher than Jim Crow laws and made it very hard for African-Americans to do anything in everyday life. Many would get arrested for no real reason. Voting laws were also very common as well, so many African-Americans could not vote.

Years and years of protesting these unequal doings, Jim Crow laws, along with other segregative laws and measures, became illegal.

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

Needing a better economic situation prior to World War II, Italian leader Mussolini began limiting unemployment by stressing military duty.

Explanation:

Mussolini managed to defeat unemployment due to the implementation of large-scale projects for the development of the country's agriculture. In the place of drained bogs, new agricultural regions were created, where unemployed labor from other regions of the country was involved. Under Mussolini, the social sphere was significantly expanded by opening thousands of new schools and hospitals.

Subsequently, economic power was concentrated in the hands of the largest corporations from a number of industries: industry, agriculture, trade, sea and air transport, railway transport and river shipping, banks and insurance companies (all artists were united in the eighth - whom can talk to in the nijt). The corporations were appointed by the state, which coordinated their activities with the help of the new special ministry. According to the then Charter of Labor, in exchange for benefits and privileges, employers pledged to remain loyal to the regime, and workers were protected by centralized social legislation that regulated, in particular, wages and prices.
