The correct answer is "The Phoenician alphabet became the basis for all written language and influenced Canaanite writing." This is because

The Phoenician alphabet sometimes referred to as Proto-Canaanite script, was originated in the Sinai Peninsula around the 15th century BC to describe the Egyptian hieroglyphs.

It is generally regarded as the father of most modern alphabets, such as Greek, Latin (in which the English Language evolved from), and some others.

How do we know that some people of African descent were not slaves in Spain's American colonies?

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Statement first is true in this regard because the Spanish had a caste system that included free Africans and former slaves. Cristopher Columbus established the “first Spanish colony” in America, in what now is Haiti and The Dominic Republic.

Since the beginning, Spanish used slavery from Indigenous people in the Americas and they also brought black Africans. Spanish had “Castas”, the equivalent of racial and social hierarchies. Spanish considered slaves inferior beings.

What were Lenin and the Bolshevik's first priorities upon seizing power? Why were those priorities what they were? How does this

iren2701 [21]

Answer:

In November 2017, Russia was in chaos. There were food and fuel shortages, social agitation, rising inflation, a weak government that didn´t have full control, and the country was still engaged in World War I; Russian armies had suffered enormous casualties at the hands of the Germans. Several large units had rebelled against central command and were refusing to fight. So the priorities of Lenin were two: to win the immediate allegiance of workers and peasants by declaring the abolition of private property and the redistribution of land among the peasantry (Decree on Land), and to disentangle Russia from the War (Decree on Peace).

In his book, Lenin argues that the state is an organized form of violence that aims at supressing some classes. The state is an instrument of domination and control by the ruling class. The proletarian revolution must be violent and destroy the old bourgeois state that opresses workers.
