History
1 answer:
Nimfa-mama [501]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The extraction of rubber from Central Africa by Belgium stole any wealth that could have been generated in the Congo for the Congolese population. Colonial rule during 1885-1908 stunted Congolese economic development, destroyed social trust, and prevented the creation of political institutions.Belgium was the obvious European candidate to run the Congo. For two years, it debated the question and held new elections on the issue. Yielding to international pressure, the parliament of Belgium annexed the Congo Free State and took over its administration on November 15, 1908, as the colony of the Belgian Congo.

</span><span>A. only men
</span><span>
 
In Greek societies, in almost all of them, only men were considered citizens. The treatment of women in Sparta was better than that of Athens, but even then, there were still limits. The generalized recognition of women as a political person occurred only in the twentieth century.
