A) Which name refers to the slaves who worked at hard labor in the city-state of Sparta?

aleksandrvk [35]

Answer: Which name refers to the slaves who worked at the hard-working city of Sparta? Helots.
Which country's fleet lost the Battle of Salamis? Persia.

Who established the rule by the assembly and people's courts with juries in Athens? Solon.
What title was Darius known to the Persian people? Lawgiver.
For which achievement is the Athenian leader Pericles celebrated? He sowed the seeds of democracy by establishing a popularly-elected assembly.

Explanation:

Helots - The lowest class of Spartan society. A social class that had no rights. The helots were the state slaves of Spartan society. The Spartan could have killed Helot without being held accountable. The Helots worked on state estates and gave most of the proceeds to the state. They only had one small part left to survive.
Battle of Salamis - It is one of the most famous battles of the Peloponnesian War, fought between Persia and the united Greek states/cities (Polis). Temisocles led the Greek and Xerkes Perth fleets. The Persian fleet was more numerous, but by the high manoeuvres of Temisocles, the Greeks were able to defeat the Persians in this battle.
Solon - The goal of Solon's reforms was to eradicate it tyranny as a form of government because aristocratic families fought for absolute domination. Solon introduced changes to reconcile the political and economic image of society. His way of reform meant coming to a position based on his abilities, not based on aristocratic affiliation. This type of improvement is rooted in the democratic values of a society.
Darius the Great has been remembered in history as one of the greatest rulers of the ancient world. After curbing the riots in the eastern states, he sought to reorganize the state. He divided the land into provinces to create greater autonomy but separated civilian authority from the military to prevent separatism. He burdened the central wool with parallels and thus enriched the treasury.
Pericles - has introduced forms of democracy into Athenian society. After the collapse of oligarchic rule in a democracy, Pericles sought to implement reforms in the political life of Athens. It gave more impoverished citizens access to administration and the judiciary. Pericles gave all power to the National Assembly, which consisted of all free Athenians with civilian status. It ruled all state affairs, and formally Athens became a democratic republic.

Something that causes and event to occur is known as a(n) ____catalyst______.

Elanso [62]

That is correct

The most common use of the word is with the denotation of a substance that increases the rate of a chemical reaction without itself undergoing any permanent chemical change.

It can also be used as to mean: A person or thing that precipitates an event

In all, a catalyst is something, or someone, that causes an event to occur.

I hope this helped! :)

Ancient Athenians held their ___ in the highest regard, whereas the Spartans considered their ___ accomplishments to be of utmos

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

B) Culture; military

Explanation:

Athens and Sparta were two powerful rivaling city-states (poleis) in Ancient Greece. In some ways, they were similar, but their values and lifestyles were different. For example, their form of government wasn't too different. An Assembly, whose members were chosen by the people, was present in both city-states. Sparta had two kings, while archons, who were elected every year, ruled Athens. In Sparta, the focus among the people was on war and obedience. Since childhood, boys would train to become warriors, while girls were supposed to become mothers of warriors. Athens was completely different. The focus was on education, art, and science. Boys could become warriors but didn't have to.
