Answer:

me please

Explanation:

The Epic of Gilgamesh and Genesis have many similarities as well as differences.    When comparing the details within the stories, they are very different.  The flood is a major connection between The Epic of Gilgamesh and Genesis.   A similarity is the amount of people God or the gods chose to save.  In both stories, it is the one good man which is Noah from Genesis and Utnapishtism from The Epic of Gilgamesh.  They were both told to build an arc or boat. In Genesis, God wasn’t pleased with the people he created.  “And the Lord saw that the evil of the human creature was great on the Earth and that every scheme of his heart’s devising was only perpetually evil” (G 6:34).  There’s too much evil for God.  So he tells Noah to build an arc.  God use the flood to punish the people for being evil by going against his word.  God ask Noah to collect different pairs of animals that exist.  God told Noah to bring his family:  his wife, sons, and his sons’ wives. In The Epic of Gilgamesh the people on Earth became too noisy for the gods.  The gods didn’t like how the situation is unfolding so they send a flood to destroy the humans.  The gods chose Utnapishtm to create a ship and collect pairs of animals to bring on the ship to preserve.

In both stories, while the arc or boat is floating, Noah and Utnapishtim sent out birds.  Noah sent two and Utnapishtim sent three birds.  “The dove went off, but came back to me…I sent forth a swallow and released it.  The swallow went off, but came back to me….I sent forth a raven and released it.  The raven went off…but does not circle back to me.” (Gilgamesh 94)  When the last bird didn’t come back that meant that the flood is gone and they can settle down.

describe the social and political factors in Germany during the Nazi regime that led to the persecution and extermination of min
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]
During the Nazi regime, there were several different factors that allowed for the persecution and extermination of minority groups. This includes:

Political factors

The rise in power of Adolph Hitler was the most significant political factor that allowed for the persecution of Jews and other minority groups. His feelings about these groups were expressed in the book he wrote (Mein Kempf) and his speeches to the German people. Since he had absolute control over the government and military, he could have individuals he didn't like killed at any time.

Social factors

A series of written and spoken propaganda convinced German citizens that the root of their economic problems were the Jewish people. These posters and speeches were spread so often that people started to believe them. This allowed for the extermination and persecution of individuals in Germany, as average citizens saw nothing wrong with getting rid of these people who were causing the problems.
