Answer:

From 1869 until 1892 he was leading the Half-Breed wing of the Republican Party, they believed in moderate policies and appointing people by merit, rather than by party loyalty. He resigned as Secretary of State after Garfield’s assassination since the new president, Chester A. Arthur, was a member of the Stalwarts, a conservative faction of the Republican Party that believed in political machines and the spoils system. He didn’t hold office again until President Benjamin Harrison made Blaine his Secretary of State in 1889. At that time he had poor health but stayed on until 1892. He died the next year. Blaine did not run for president until 1876, since Lincoln and Grant dominated the Republican Party during Blaine’s early career. Blaine was the frontrunner in 1876, and one of two leading candidates in 1880, the other was former President Grant, but the party was so divided between Half-Breeds and Stalwarts that a compromise choice had to be made. Rutherford B. Hayes and James A. Garfield, who were unknown at the time, and may have gone either way, but they both chose the Half-Breeds, selected at these conventions. In 1884, Blaine defeated incumbent president Chester A. Arthur for the nomination, but he lost against Democratic nominee Grover Cleveland in a close general election. After this defeat, he declined to run for president in the future.

Why is Attila the Hun a controversial historical figure?
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

D. Historians believe that he is a myth rather than a real historical person.

Explanation:

Attila the Hun Attila the Hun (405-453), also sometimes known with the nickname as Attila the Scourge of God (Flagellum Dei) or simply Attila was the most powerful king of the Huns. He reigned over what was then Europe's largest empire, from 434 until his death. His empire stretched from Germany and the Netherlands to the Ural river and from the Danube River to Poland and Estonia. During his rule, he was among the most dire of the Western and Eastern Roman Empire's enemies: he invaded the Balkans twice and besieged Constantinople in the second invasion; he marched through Gaul (modern day France) as far as Orleans before being defeated at the Battle of Chalons; and he drove the western emperor Valentinian III from his capital at Ravenna in 452. He was regarded as sacker of cities. In the year 453 Attilla was at his wedding party,got drunk,hit his head,and chocked on his own blood this is how Attilla died a terrible and unfair death.

Hope this helps ;)

Answer:

I would say that "The main problem is that Hansel and Gretal's Father was tricked into thinking that his children would actually come back to him.

Oh and I would also change it by changing the fact that you wrote that "... it was actually the kids fault for running away.

And actually, The Mother <u><em>did</em></u> abandon her kids. When she tricked Hansel and Gretal's Father and abandoned the 2 kids.

Hope you like it! ;-)
