The correct answer is D, as the title that would best suit the period of Iraqi history from 1980 through 1990 is "The era of Iraqi agression".
This time could be called like that because during those 10 years Iraq invaded both Iran in 1980 (which led to a war that lasted until 1988), and Kuwait in 1990 (which led to the Gulf War, in which a coalition led by the United States defeated the Iraqi forces and restored the Kuwaiti territory).
Correct answers:
- B. He moved his court from Paris to Versailles, where he and his courtiers lived in splendor and excess.
- C. He believed he had received his authority from God and did not have to share power with anyone.
Details/context:
Louis XIV is a hugely important historical figure. He was on the throne as king in France from childhood to his old age; he ruled from 1643 to 1715. He was known as the Sun King because all important activity in France basically revolved around him. Important activity meant that of the ruling classes -- not the struggles of the common people. It was one of Louis XIV's goals to keep the ranking nobles from being a threat to his power, so he lured them to come live at the glorious Versailles palace with him. That way he could keep them under his influence and away from their lands in the provinces. They were lavishly entertained, but lost the real power they would have had as lords governing in their provincial lands. And the people in the provinces were neglected.
Louis XIV also subscribed to the idea of the "divine right of kings." That belief was summed up succinctly by Bishop Jacques-Bénigne Bossuet, who was court preacher at the royal court of Louis XIV. Bossuet said that monarchy "is sacred, it is paternal, it is absolute … the royal throne is not that of a man but the throne of God himself." The claim of kings' divine right meant their authority could not be challenged because they were put in their office by God and were to be respected as God's sovereign representatives.
Answer:
Yes
Explanation:
There are many characteristics required to be a good leader, responsibility being one of this. This is because, unlike the average citizen, leaders make decisions that have an influence on a large group of people. They need to think of how their actions affect others and how those actions might be perceived. They also need to have skills such as good time management and communication to be a good leader.
They should also lead by example, since their actions and attitudes have an effect on the population which they are governing. Leaders are looked upon as an inspiration and as being able to lead through difficult times. If they are irresponsible, they might not achieve the necessary objectives and might have a negative effect on the rest of the population.
