Answer:

B> - If the ruling dynasty was fair, it would keep the Mandate of Heaven.

Explanation:

The Mandate of Heaven was a belief in the establishment of a ruler from the qualities of a person. Under this Mandate, there is no specific rule that determines who can or cannot become the ruler. Rather, a person's qualities, such as being fair, just, how well he can rule, or how 'good' he is in terms of his behavior and qualities.

The belief that such a ruler is determined from the internal qualities comes from the idea of the ruler being the "son of heaven". In other words, such type of person is good, just, kind, fair, and does not indulge in immoral or bad activities, which makes him ideal for a leader. Moreover, he will also be accepted by the gods, which is a huge factor.

So, <u>if a ruling dynasty or a ruler is fair, he can keep the Mandate of Heaven</u> but if not, then the Mandate cannot be his.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.

Why did Reformation ideas most likely produce so many Protestant sects in Europe? Trade with the Middle East, Africa, and Asia e

dezoksy [38]

Answer: Questioning by reformers inspired more reformers.

The Reformation was a schism in Western Christianity initiated by Martin Luther's publication of the <em>Ninety-Five Theses</em> in 1517. It lasted roughly until 1648, when the Thirty Years' War ended.

The movement gave rise to several different Christian denominations, such as Lutherans, Baptists, Unitarians, Anglicans and Reformed. Its ideas were mostly restricted to Western Europe, although they were carried to the Americas and the rest of the world with the establishment of colonies. Although the Catholic Church tried to suppress these movements with the Counter-Reformation, the spread of ideas was difficult to contain. The beginning of the movement in Germany inspired other reformers all over Europe. The spread of information was aided by Gutenberg's recently introduced printing press.

There were many ideas that influenced the Reformation, such as the ideas of humanism and nationalism. Nevertheless, the movement was ultimately theological. It did not try to undermine Christianity as such, but Catholic practices that were perceived to contradict the scriptures.
