The ancient Athenians met together in a big meeting to discuss laws. Which of the following is the name for that big meeting?
solmaris [256]
You didn't give us a list of choices, but there's really just one choice.  The Athenians big meeting for discussing laws was called the Assembly.  Well, actually, in Greek (their language) it was called the "Ecclesia (<span>ἐκκλησία). </span> Etymologically, that means the "called out" ones.  Or we might say the ones called together, to gather together.  The Assembly was open to all male citizens, and could have several thousand people participating in such a meeting (out of the total citizen population of perhaps around 50,000).

By the way, the same term "ecclesia" was used by Christians later as the name for their gatherings, so in religious circles "ecclesia" (assembly) came to be synonymous with the word "church."

How did the defeat of the Spanish Armada change the political balance of power among European countries
Olenka [21]
Probably the most basic answer is that with the mighty Spanish Armada out of commission, it opened the door for the exploration of the American continent by the French and the British. As these two nations built up colonies in the "new world" they became more and more wealthy. Britain, which hadn't nearly enough farmland to outfit an army, and a shortage of lumber that made naval expansion difficult, sought both of these things in the American continent. As they harvested lumber, they built bigger and better ships, which could haul more grain and outfit more firepower, which in turn helped them to secure even more of the continent. Thus, Great Britain and France gained power and wealth from their colonization of the American continent, and their scope of influence around the world grew. Spain, having lost their ability to wage open war on the seas against the two upstart powers, saw their influence in the colonies decline until they were forced to vacate most of the continent to focus on problems at home.

That's not entirely accurate, Bertucci. Britain began its rise in the mid 1600's, as colonization of the New World began to pick up. This was a direct result of the defeat of the Spanish Armada, which allowed Britain to begin building up a Navy. Their power increased greatly under General-At-Sea Robert Blake, who was appointed by Oliver Cromwell. From that point on, Britain's greatest strength was her Navy. Were it not for the defeat of the Spanish Armada, none of this would have been possible. By the time the 1700's rolled around, Spain was nearly a non-factor in world exploration and conquest, leaving France and Britain as the two juggernauts. While the Peace of Utrecht happened nearly 130 years after the Spanish Armada sank, it was that event that paved the way for the massive balance shift in Europe and all over the globe.
