Identify two innovations developed during the golden age
asambeis [7]

* entertainment for themselves (theater). This was all due to the earlier innovations like building this with mathema

* Many buildings were made as well as many other architectural things (banks, churches, etc); Mathematics was also a huge part of the golden age as they started to develop these skills with their leader and with their theatre building/plays. They used mathematics for their projects and to explore nature.

* Now that they had these innovations people grew in their religion because they now had churches, were growing in their knowledge and also creating more enteritis, exploring nature, and examining art. Each of these were a key factor because art game them design, mathematics gave them the ability to build, and nature gave them a place to map out or place their structure.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of having the presidentchosen by the people rather than the legislature?​
quester [9]

Answer:

If/when chosen by the people you get a more appealing outcome.

Because... The determining factors are YOUR family, friends, and town-folk. It's the people you grew up with. So you all are aware of the same problems in your city/state and you are more than likely both thinking of the same solution. Where as, if chosen by a legislature, you have a bunch of well paid senators who may not see all the things normal people do since they work and live indoors and nowhere near the problems most of the time. They don't care for the middle to lower classes. Most just care about the rich and how to make themselves better and wealthier. It sucks to see, and even more to be living in this kind of world but it's just how it is.
