7 0

Explanation:

Calvinism originated with the teachings of John Calvin in the 16th century. The Reformation in Switzerland when Huldrych Zwingli began preaching what would become the first form of the Reformed doctrine in Zürich in 1519.

Zwingli and John Oecolampadius became embroiled in conflict over the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist with Martin Luther, leading to a division between Lutheran and Reformed Protestants. Several theologians succeeded Zwingli, the best known of which is John Calvin in Geneva, but other reformers like John Oecolampadius, Heinrich Bullinger, Peter Martyr Vermigli, and Wolfgang Musculus were also very influential in the development of Reformed theology.

Reformed faith spread throughout Europe in the 16th century, with different character in different places. Calvinism was the dominant form of Protestantism in France. After a period of struggle Calvinists were officially tolerated there. Under the leadership of John Knox the Church of Scotland, which was Reformed, became the established church in Scotland. In the Netherlands, Calvinism also became the official established religion following a period of persecution. During the Reformation, Calvinism was the primary Protestant faith in Belgium but was eradicated in favor of the Counter-Reformation. Germany remained predominantly Lutheran during the 16th century, but Reformed worship was promoted intermittently by rulers in Electoral Palatinate, Margraviate of Brandenburg, and other German states. Reformed ideas also influenced Protestants in Eastern Europe, especially Hungary and Romania. The reform of the Church of England was also influenced by Reformed theologians, and remained so throughout the 16th century.

Describe why the "discovery" of america was one of the "most important events recorded in the history of mankind," according to
Anon25 [30]

You didn't list options, but essentially Adam Smith called the discovery of America one of the most important events in history because it led to increased trade and interchange between nations and continents, which brought about economic benefit for those involved.

In his famous book, <em>The Wealth of Nations, </em>Adam Smith said that "The discovery of America, and that of the passage to the East Indies by the Cape of Good Hope, are the two greatest events recorded in the history of mankind."  Both of these events facilitated and encouraged an increase of trade, which led to increased wealth and prosperity.

Historical context:

The basic principles of capitalism were laid out by Scottish philosopher Adam Smith in his influential book published in 1776:  <em>An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations.</em>  The Nobel-prize winning 20th century economist Milton Friedman said of Adam Smith, "“The key insight of Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations is misleadingly simple: If an exchange between two parties is voluntary, it will not take place unless both believe they will benefit from it."  Smith argued for such voluntary exchanges within a free market system.  He labeled the government-manipulated economic system that was prevailing in his day as "mercantilism," a system in which governments specifically authorized some merchants as the official agents of commerce (rather than endorsing free enterprise).  The mercantilist system also viewed wealth as though there were a fixed amount of it available in the world, represented by precious metals such as gold and silver, and that nations were in competition over who got more of that fixed amount of world wealth.  Smith saw that wealth was something that could be created and increased through voluntary exchange and free trade.  Smith's ideas formed the basis for what we have come to know as capitalism.  For Smith, the expansion of trade that occurred because of the discovery of the Americas and the discovery of sea routes to Asia were ways that wealth could be exchanged and increased more readily.

What caused the division of Solomons kingdom
lyudmila [28]

Two major theories have been suggested as the reason that the Soviet Union collapsed. One is that the U.S. (particularly Ronald
natulia [17]

The <u><em>second explanation is better</em></u>, because the problems generated by the bureaucratization of the Soviet government were worsening the social, political and economic situation of the country. The closure of the country to non-socialist nations forced the Soviet Union to undergo a process of economic backwardness that left Soviet industry behind. Moreover, the expenses generated by the Cold War arms race prevented the Soviet Union from being able to stand up to the capitalist powers.

The population that had access to higher education eventually realized that the socialist project was beginning to crumble. The promises of prosperity and equality, propagated by state media, contrasted with the privileges of a class that lived at the expense of government-controlled wealth. This privileged group, called the nomenklatura, advocated the maintenance of the one-party system and the centralization of political powers.
