History

Answer:

Explanation:

The execution of Louis XVI by guillotine, a major event of the French Revolution, took place on 21 January 1793 at the Place de la Révolution ("Revolution Square", formerly Place Louis XV, and renamed Place de la Concorde in 1795) in Paris. At a trial on 17 January 1793, the National Convention had convicted the king of high treason in a near-unanimous vote; while no one voted "not guilty", several deputies abstained. Ultimately, they kissed him to death by a simple majority. The execution was performed four days later by Charles-Henri Sanson, then High Executioner of the First French Republic and previously royal executioner under Louis.

Often viewed as a turning point in both French and European history, Louis' death inspired various reactions around the world. To some, his death at the hands of his former subjects symbolised the long-awaited end of an unbroken thousand-year period of absolute monarchy in France and the true beginning of democracy within the nation, although Louis would not be the last king of France. Others (even some who had supported major political reform) condemned the execution as an act of senseless bloodshed and saw it as a sign that France had devolved into a state of violent, amoral chaos.

What are the two ways in which the Constitution can be amended?
Finger [1]

Answer:

I believe in order for the Constitution to be amended, one way is that 2/3 (two-thirds) of both houses of Congress needs to vote to propose an amendment, and the other way is to two-thirds of the state legislature ask Congress to call a national convention to propose amendments.

Why are environmental problems common in developing countries?
ICE Princess25 [194]

The correct answer to this question would be alternative D)"Developing countries often specialize in manufacturing and providing raw materials, which can seriously harm the environment."

Alternative D precisely describes the problems for the environment in developing countries.

If you take Brazil, for example, there is plenty of natural resources there, and the soil is fertile for many types of crops, including soy, corn, etc. Animal Husbandry is also a successful activity.

All of these need extensive lands, which can cause deforestation, pollution of the soil, air and of drinkable water. Since these are some of the most important industries of the country, and they're partly responsible for the development of the nation, the government doesn't do much to stop or regulate them, since they need these activities themselves.
