Answer:

One-third of the nations income.

Explanation:

1. Quo Shi Huang was widely known as the first emperor of China. His reign as the emperor lasted for thirty-five years. The period is around 246 to 210 BC. During his time, he spends so much empire's wealth on the preparation for the afterlife.

He constructed an expensive personal tomb for himself, and a mausoleum for soldiers to protect him in the afterlife.

The mausoleum housed about 8,000 soldiers, 130 chariots, and 670 horses. It was believed to have cost about "one-third of the nation's income."

2. Due to his constant fear of death, he sought the elixir of life to give him immortality. However, he considered that should he not find the key to immortality, he will need protection in the afterlife.

Mark each description if it is a feature of ancient Indus cities.
Gennadij [26K]
The early phase of the civilization lasted from circa 3300 BC until 2800 BC. This saw farming settlements grow into large and sophisticated urban centres. The quality of municipal town planning indicates that these communities were controlled by efficient governments. These clearly placed a high priority on accessibility to water. Modern scholars tend to see in this the influence of a religion which places a string emphasis on ritual washing - much like modern Hinduism. Hygiene was also important to the inhabitants. The urban planning included the world's first known urban sanitation systems. Within the city, people obtained water from wells. Within their homes, some rooms had facilities in which waste water was directed to covered drains. These lined the major streets. These ancient Indus sewerage and drainage systems were far in advance of anything found in contemporary urban sites in the Middle East. The advanced architecture and construction techniques of the Indus cities is shown by their impressive dockyards, granaries, warehouses, brick platforms, and protective walls. Their massive walls were probably designed to protect them as much from floods as from attack. Most city dwellers were traders or artisans. They lived with others of the same occupation in well-defined neighbourhoods. Although some houses were larger than others, Indus civilization cities do not show the kind of massive gulf between wealthy and poor dwellings that is found in those of other civilizations. Their society seems to have been egalitarian to a remarkable degree - but perhaps we should not make too much of this until the civilization in understood more, as this seems to contradict so much of what we know about other ancient societies. However, all the houses had access to water and drainage facilities, which gives the impression of a society where even the poor had a decent standard of living (though there may have been extensive "shanty towns" outside the walls, which have left scant archaeological remains). http://www.timemaps.com/civilization/Indus-Valley-civilization<span> :) All that info will Help u</span>

Compared with medival art a major theme in renaissance art was
bonufazy [111]

The correct answer is nature

In artistic terms, the Renaissance will succeed Gothic, and its main characteristic is its approach to Antiquity. But the aim of the Renaissance artist was not to copy the greatness and excellence of Classical art, but to match these creations.

During this period, artists (from the Fine Arts) are no longer considered mere artisans and are seen as intellectual men. This change in attitude towards the artist led to the collection of works of art, since everything that came out of the hands of a master was considered of great value.

There are also workshops, which will later lead to the creation of academies, and artists gain more freedom, functioning almost as entrepreneurs.
