<h2><u><em>Answer:</em></u></h2><h2><u><em>Phrixus and Helle Fly Away on the Golden Ram</em></u></h2><h2><u><em>The plan was to fly to Colchis, the kingdom on the furthest coast of the Black Sea, and the very edge of the known world, putting as much distance between the children and Ino as possible.Phrixus and Helle were hated by their stepmother, Ino. She hatched a devious plot to get rid of the twins, roasting all of Boeotia's crop seeds so they would not grow. The local farmers, frightened of famine, asked a nearby oracle for assistance. Ino bribed the men sent to the oracle to lie and tell the others that the oracle required the sacrifice of Phrixus and Helle. Before they were killed, though, Phrixus and Helle were rescued by a flying, or swimming,[1] ram with golden wool sent by Nephele, their natural mother; their starting point is variously recorded as Halos in Thessaly and Orchomenus in Boeotia. During their flight Helle swooned, fell off the ram and drowned in the strait between Europe and Asia, which was named after her the Hellespont, meaning the sea of Helle (now Dardanelles); Phrixus survived all the way to Colchis, where King Aeëtes, the son of the sun god Helios, took him in and treated him kindly, giving Phrixus his daughter, Chalciope, in marriage. In gratitude, Phrixus sacrificed the ram to Zeus and gave the king the Golden Fleece of the ram, which Aeëtes hung in a tree in the holy grove of Ares in his kingdom, guarded by a dragon that never slept. Phrixus and Chalciope had four sons, who later joined forces with the Argonauts. The oldest was Argos/ Argus, Phrontis, Melas, and Cytisorus.</em></u></h2><h2><u><em>Explanation:</em></u></h2><h2><u><em>also I know because I read stuff like this also MARK BRAINLIEST PLZS PLZS</em></u></h2>

shutvik [7]

Answer:

1- France

2- Japan

The Group of Seven, often called the G7, is an informal organization of seven major industrialized nations. The G7 member countries are Canada, Germany, Italy, Japan, France, the United Kingdom, and the United States. The G7 plays a major role in raising issues and setting priorities in the international community​ .

Explanation:

The Group of Seven or G7 is an intergovernmental forum of seven leading industrial states and the European Union. These are Canada, Germany, France, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom, the United States and the European Union.

The G6 started in 1975 as an informal gathering of the leaders of the major industrial states. The group included France, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom, the United States and West Germany. The G7 was created when Canada joined a year later. In 1977 the European Economic Community (the predecessor of the European Union) was also invited.

In 1997, Russia was also added to the list, creating the Group of Eight. However, the G8 did not replace the G7. Especially during the credit crisis, the G7 still met regularly at ministerial level. In 2014, following the annexation of Crimea by Russia, it was decided to no longer cooperate with Russia, de facto dissolving the G8.
