<h3>Answer: False</h3>

=========================================================

Explanation:

The Merriam-Webster dictionary says in the etymology section that

<em>"Marathon, Greece, site of a victory of Greeks over Persians in 490 b.c., the news of which was carried to Athens by a long-distance runner". </em>

In other words, Marathon was named after a place to refer to the messenger who ran a very long distance.

When I used a translator, it said that the Greek word for month is μήνα which is pronounced "mina" in English.

adell [148]

Answer:

b. The leaders in the movement.

Explanation:

Civil rights movement by the African Americans for the social justice that happened in the year 1950s and 1960s for the Black Americans to gain their equal rights under the law of the United States.

The Black Lives Matter Movement is a social protest against the police and the government for the incidents of the police that showed inequalities to the Black Americans under the law.

Both the movement worked for the racial equality of the Black African American under the law but the main difference between them is that the Black Lives Matter Movement supported violent ways to achieve their goals by protesting violently and destroying public properties. The leaders of the Black Lives Matter group make use of violence to put forward their agenda. They are a  believer of violence and think that extremist mindset can be used to achieve their goal.

The united states helped establish a democratic government focused on economic growth here in
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

The United States helped establish a democratic government focused on economic growth in South Korea.

Explanation:

South Korea, officially named as Republic of Korea, is a country located on the southern part of the Korean Peninsula between the Japanese Sea and the Yellow Sea.

From 1910 to 1945, the whole Korean peninsula was ruled by Japan. After World War II, Korea was divided into two occupation zones by the United States and the Soviet Union, which in turn laid the foundations for today's two Korean states.

On June 20, 1950, North Korea, supported by the People's Republic of China and the Soviet Union, invaded the South, causing the so-called Korean War, a war conflict with two million victims, effectively interrupted in 1953, although the its conclusion has not yet been officially declared despite military agreements made in 2018. During this war, America led a UN coalition force, which militarily supported South Korea.

Nowadays, South Korea has one of the world's fastest growing economies. It is Asia's third largest economy and the world's 12th largest, and is considered one of the Four Asian Tigers. South Korea is also considered a high-income country and is a member of the G20.
