Answer:
History reveals that seven of Queen Victoria's descendants sat on European thrones in Russia, Greece, Romania, Britain, Germany, Spain, and Norway. The great Queen Victoria had arranged all the marriages in order to influence Europe. She didn't realize her family would fulfil the Biblical apocalypse where members of the same household would set against one another. These families instead of acting in unity as descendants of one great family decided to take sides after the assassination of the Austrian Archduke Franz Ferdinand by a Serbian nationalist named Gavrilo Princip on June 28, 1914.
Explanation:
Gavrilo Princip and others were fighting "to end Austro-Hungarian rule over Bosnia and Herzegovina." Austria-Hungary blamed the Serbian government for the assassination of the heir apparent in Sarajevo, Bosnia. With the support of many other countries, with the blanket approval by Germany, Austria-Hungary decided to use the occasion to settle the question of Serbian nationalism and declared war on Serbia. France and Britain took sides with the Russian-backed Serbia and the result was the killing of millions of people worldwide.

Answer:
The correct answer is E. Samuel Slater established America's first factory.
Explanation:
Samuel Slater was an English-born American entrepreneur and industrialist.
He is referred to as the "father of the American industrial revolution" because, when he emigrated to the United States at the age of 21, he brought with him plans for the so-called Spinning Jenny, a spinning machine invented in England around 1764, which laid the foundation for the American textile industry. To do this, he broke British law, which prohibited the transfer of industrial know-how to other nations. In Pawtucket, Rhode Island, he convinced his new employer of his knowledge and in 1793 built the first water-driven textile mill in the United States based on British plants.
Athens allowed their society to focus on the fine arts and other expressionist ideologies. Whilst their rival/enemy Sparta focused heavily on military dominance.
