QUICK PLEASE I NEED THIS NOW DOES ANYONE KNOW PLS HELP How did Pericles differ from earlier Athenian leaders?
stellarik [79]

Answer:

Pericles was a prominent and influential Greek statesman, orator and general of Athens during its golden age – specifically the time between the Persian and Peloponnesian wars. He was descended, through his mother, from the powerful and historically influential Alcmaeonid family. Pericles had such a profound influence on Athenian society that Thucydides, a contemporary historian, acclaimed him as "the first citizen of Athens". Pericles turned the Delian League into an Athenian empire, and led his countrymen during the first two years of the Peloponnesian War. The period during which he led Athens, roughly from 461 to 429 BC, is sometimes known as the "Age of Pericles", though the period thus denoted can include times as early as the Persian Wars, or as late as the next century.

satela [25.4K]

New England colonists felt their win over the allied Native American tribes was a sign from God that they were destined to settle and be prosperous in the Americas. New England settlers used the war as a reason to retaliate against Native Americans and to treat them poorly. The war proved to colonists that the Indians were violent and lacking the ability to be civilized.

King Philip's War was a war against the New England colonists. This war brought together a few tribes with the Wampanoag tribe leading the charge. The tribes were tired of being connected to the English and this was their final attempt to get rid of the English settlers. Some other tribes joined the English in the battles and the English settlers were victorious in the end. Those on the losing side either fled for protection or were enslaved by the colonists. Those remaining from the enemy side were treated poorly and with the leader King Philip being beheaded for his part in the war.
