Answer:

The best option is "Napoleon hero vs. Louis XVI".

Explanation:

By looking up "Napoleon Louis XVI" a website titled "From Louis XVI to Napoleon - The French Revolution" pops up. The website details how generous, shy, and easily swayed King Louis XVI was and how he was not suited for the position. It is mentioned how King Louis unintentionally opened the doors to revolution and that France needed a stronger ruler. This is where Napoleon Bonaparte comes in. We are told that Napoleon achieved success in the military at a young age, and the French approved of the constitution that gave real ruling power to Napoleon. One of his most important reforms was his code of laws, referred to as the Napoleonic Code. Napoleon was powerful and expanded his empire over the course of a decade of winning numerous wars, he was the strong and absolute leader that had been needed. However, after the French went to war with Russia during a harsh winter and Napoleon only came back with 30,000 of the 600,000 men that had been taken, Napoleon was exiled. Napoleon came back shortly after to attempt at winning another war in Waterloo. He was exiled again, this time to the island of St. Helena where he died.

There were little other results for this search, if you looked hard enough you could find the websites though. The first website offers quite a bit of information, but since it's so difficult to find other websites to choose from the second option seems better.

Searching "Napoleon hero vs. Louis XVI" brings up a different website called "Napoleon: flawed hero or power-mad tyrant? - Sky HISTORY". This site starts off questioning if Napoleon was "...a flawed but essential visionary who changed Europe for the better" or "...simply a military dictator, whose cult of personality and lust for power set a template for the likes of Hitler". (Sky HISTORY) Napoleons personality is likened to a maddening paradox. The article states that Napoleon was a military genius that led disastrous campaigns. Napoleon reinstated slavery in the French colonies as well. This website claims that the French had to watch as Napoleon crowned himself after they had fought to bring down the monarchy. As an emperor, Napoleon held more power and pageantry than King Louis VXI ever had. Napoleon even created a new aristocracy by appointing his relatives as royals/nobles throughout Europe. After that the site explains in depth how paradoxical Napoleon was, and that the arguments over him and his status will continue, that itself is enough of a testament to his power.

Other websites resulting from this search are "#MWH Napoleon: Hero or Tyrant? - Central Bucks School District", "Napoleon: Hero or Tyrant? - 5-Minute History", "How Effective Is Napoleon A Hero? - 1160 Words - IPL.org". This set of key words pulls up better results that hold enough information to put together a nice essay if needed.

(I would like to note that I only skimmed through the first sites that popped up for each search)

What reasons are suggested for the disappearance of the Indus Valley civilization?
Oksanka [162]
The reasons for the suggested disappearance of the Indus Valley civilization were droughts and a decline in trade with Egypt and Mesopotamia, ancient civilizations which were not too extended far away from the Indus Valley. The droughts would have caused famine. Other reports equally suggest that immigration by new peoples, deforestation, floods or changes in the course of river could have affected the Indus Valley Civilization.

What was the meaning of Queen Liliuokalani's statement? A) She did not want the Japanese to control the Hawaiian nation so she s
svetlana [45]

The meaning of Queen Liliuokalani's statement was "She was upset that she was unable to overthrow the government and reestablish the monarchy, but abdicated the throne for release and pardon of her compatriots".

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

The first woman ever to rule Hawaii in early 1891 was Liliuokalani. While the then John Stevens, U.S. Minister and a contingent of U.S. Marines were very supportive to a group of European and American entrepreneurs, during January 1893, who staged a takeover to bring down the queen.

The queen had some expectations of appealing to President Cleveland in order to restore her. But as soon as the coup ran by Sanford Dole ignored her restoration, the interim government emergence took place. The government demonstrated the Hawaii Republic in July 1894 and decorated Dole with the title of their first president.

After a failed revolution which was aimed at keeping Liliuokalani to the throne and led by loyalist Robert Wilcox in early 1895, the queen was shifted under house arrest and disloyalty was charged. Later the "Queen Liliuokalani’s Statement" was the one, when she accepted to sign a formal resignation in the late January by swapping for the pardon of the defenders who had run the revolt.
