What is the main argument of the Athenians in the "Melian Dialogue"?

History
1 answer:
vitfil [10]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: The Melians claim that since they are a neutral city rather than an enemy, Athens does not need to conquer them.

The Athenians argue that accepting Melos' neutrality and freedom would make them seem weak: their subjects would believe that they left Melos alone because they were not powerful enough to conquer it.

Place the technology advancements in the order in which they emerged. Tiles the first school of oceanic navigation Ptolemy’s map
rjkz [21]

Here's the order:

  1. Ptolemy's map of the world
  2. the first school of oceanic navigation
  3. Portuguese caravels with triangular sails

Details:

Ptolemy (ca. 100-150 AD) was an astronomer, mathematician and geographer in the Roman Empire era.  Ptolemy's map of the world was a map based on descriptions in Ptolemy's book, <em>Geography, </em>which dates back to around the year 150 AD.

Prince Henry the Navigator started the first school for oceanic navigation at Sagres, Portugal, for training in navigation, map-making, and science. The date of founding of the school (and even full details about it) are a bit uncertain, but it seems to have been established in about 1418.  Prince Henry was called "The Navigator" because of his strong support for sending out ocean exploration voyages.

Caravels were developed by the Portuguese around the middle of the 15th century (around 1450).  These more agile ships were better suited to ocean sailing than previous ship models used in the calmer waters of the Mediterranean Sea.

Alexxx [7]
The correct answer is tax return.

Tax returns are filled out by millions of Americans on a yearly basis. This form allows the government to understand your work history, the wages you earned during the fiscal year, and how much you paid in taxes. This will allow the government to assess whether you paid too much or too little in taxes. If you paid too much, you will get a refund. If you paid too little, you are responsible for sending the government the difference that you owe.
