Olympics were considered to be the religious event for Greeks and it had been started three thousand years ago.

Explanation:

Many mythical theories revolve around the ancient Olympic games and one such is the Hercules theory. Hercules who is the son of the great mythical Greek God the Zeus held Olympic games which was marked to be thanks giving and honor to his Heroic Father. he held games after taking revenge against the King Augeus of Elis who defaulted to uphold his promise of rewarding Hercules who was asked to cleanse the stables. This annoyed Hercules and exacted revenge against the king. He held Olympic games marking his victory over the king.

In ancient days the representatives from each polis arrived in the great stadion and they had to arrive to the place only by passing through the enemies' lands which was quite challenging for the participants. An Olympic winner was crowned with an olive wreath and his name would be inscribed in the Olympic records in olden days.

Lyrx [107]

<u>Answer: </u>

The belief that the new South African government is behaving unethically is an expression of the philosophy associated with utilitarianism.

<u>Explanation: </u>

  • The concept of utilitarianism refers to the biased decisions made by the people holding authority. The decisions made by them only favor the interests of the majority and the people who make these decisions also belong to the class of the majority.

Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

a. Long Cycle Theory

Explanation:

In international relations theory, the Long Cycle Theory was first presented by  George Modelski in his book <em>Long Cycles in World Politics</em> (1987). Modelski claims that <u>the US replacing Britain as the leader of the International System after World War II is part of a cycle in international relations where one hegemon is gradually replaced by another over a period of roughly a century</u>.

The transition from one hegemonic power to another leads to the new world power carrying on the costs associated with such a position. And unlike defenders of the realist school of international relations, Modelski doesn't see this cycle as produced by the anarchy of the internationals system, but rather as a natural consequence of economic and political developments, including wars. According to him, Portugal was the world hegemon in the 16th century, Netherlands in the 17th century, Britain stretched his period of international dominance over the 18th and 19th century, and since the 20th century, the United States is the world's dominant hegemon.
