Taira no Masakado was widely revered as a just man and came from a big family so he was a candidate well suited for position.
Explanation:
Masakado was born into an influential family and had grown up to be the leader of the legions of Samurai and a powerful landowner. His influence made him one of the most powerful and well revered men in the country.
He led the rebellion and was able to sustain it for a long time as his people were fiercely loyal to him to the end. When he was beginning his revolt, a vast swarm of butterflies came to Kyoto and surrounded him, as if to show that he will be victorious in the upcoming battle.
He was later deified for his efforts.
The Iran-Contra Affair intensified the already existing Cold War tensions between the USA and the Soviet Union.
<em>The Iran-Contra affair</em> was a political scandal in the United States that occurred during the second term of Reagan's presidency. Arms were secretly sold to Iran and the profits obtained from the sale went to support the Contras in Nicaragua.
<em>In Nicaragua</em>, young Marxists known as Sandinistas took power and turned to the Soviet Union for support and advisers. Soviet Union and Cuba both backed the new Sadinistas government. Seeing it as a way to spread communism, the Reagan administration<em> backed the Contras</em> ( the opposition to the new government). The Contras rebels received financial and military support from the U.S., the rebels were also trained covertly by the CIA. The money for the Contras came from illegal arms sales to Iran. The funding of the Contras had been prohibited by the Congress.
<em>The official justification for the arms shipment to Iran</em> was to pay for the release of seven American hostages in Lebanon. Iran was the subject of arms embargo and any arms sales were prohibited. It turned out that the sales started even before any hostages were taken. Iran was involved in a war with Iraq and the United States feared that it would fall under the Soviet Union's influence, as the Soviet Union supported Iraq in that war.

The implication of Justinian being the last emperor to speak Latin was that C. The Eastern Empire had been influenced by the linguistic changes taking place in "barbarian" lands.
<h3>What happened when Justinian was emperor?</h3><h3 />
Justinian took over control of the Eastern Roman empire at a time when the Western Empire was no more.
Barbarians had overrun the western empire and started speaking their own languages. As a result, Latin was no longer very popular and so the Eastern Romans switched to Greek.
