Answer:
Although North Korean leader Kim Jong-un says that his country’s nuclear program is purely for peaceful purposes. But given Mr. Kim’s familiarity with that program It is FALSE that we should not think for a moment that he plans to use it to develop nuclear weapons.

Answer:
<u>the plot of Virgil's classic work the Aeneid</u>
Explanation:
"Aeneid" is one of Virgil's most famous works. This is a heroic epic consisting of twelve chants, written in a dactyl hexameter.
Overall, "Aeneid" consists of 9896 hexameters that continues the plot of Homer's "Iliad" and "Odyssey." Virgil wrote "Aeneid" for the full ten years, the last ten years of his life, from the age of 29 BC to the year 19 BC.
What Virgil wanted to show by "Aeneid" is the history and origin of the city of Rome. In this heroic epic through twelve chants, we read about the travels and wanderings of Aeneas and other Trojans who managed to escape from Troy.
The chants can be divided into two groups: the first six chants speak of Aeneas wandering and coming to Carthage and later to italy, the other six chants speak of the struggle that Aeneas engages Latins.
Aeneas is the hero who managed to escape from the war-torn Troy, reach Carthage, and ultimately Italy, where the city of Rome is formed.

Answer:
Inflation
Explanation:
During the early 1920’s the Weimar Republic (German government from 1918 to 1933) was affected by Hyperinflation*, particularly in 1923. This happened because Germany had many debts they could not afford: a) the Reichstag (German parliament until 1918) funded the costs of WWI by borrowing money, which they could not repay after the War, as Germany was defeated by the Allies and could not annex the rich territories they tried to occupy; b) after the Great War the debt was increased as the Allies imposed very large reparation sums to be paid by Germany (Treaty of Versailles and London Payment Plan).
With the London Payment Plan, Germany had to repay the money in gold or foreign currency in annual installments. When they started the repayments in gold marks, during the summer of 1921, the paper mark started to lose value because after the repayment they started to buy foreign currency at any rate, which started to depreciate the paper mark. This caused that by 1922 Germany was not able to buy foreign currency or gold in paper marks, so they had to start exchanging them for goods; and so, they were not able to make the repayments. Then, in 1923, to ensure Germany paid the reparations agreed France and Belgium occupied the Ruhr valley, which prompted workers to go on a strike. This meant that there was no income from production. So Germany had to print more paper marks to pay for salaries, which inundated the market with paper marks, devaluating the currency and creating a hyperinflation. By November 1923 a USD was equivalent to 4,210,500,000,000 marks.
<u>* Hyperinflation</u>: when inflation is very high and happens in a very short time. As the general price of goods and services increases, the real value of the currency highly decreases. The purchasing power of the currency decreases. This means that, for example, with one dollar you can buy less things than before inflation. Therefore, people cannot buy essentials as their prices become exorbitant.
