I think it's D. The confederates were the South if I remember right.
B) a nun because the nun would be educated on religion
D. The reason for the fall of the Maya civilization is still unknown. There are many different theories attempting to explain the cause of the Classic Maya collapse and the abandonment of Maya cities in the southern Maya lowlands of Mesoamerica between the 8th and 9th centuries: climate change, drought, deforestation, etc. but although the drought is the leading theory at the moment the truth is yet unknown.
Leadership was a key factor in the creation of great civilization. Paca the Great was a leader that expanded Mayan power and initiated a building program that produced Mayan's finest architecture and Arts. Moctezuma's leadership played a role in building the last stage of the temple Ehecatl and he conquered some regions in Mexico. However, his leadership ended up being not so good for Aztecs when he helped Spaniards to conquer Mexico because he was convinced that Hernan Cortez was a god. Moctezuma was lapidated by his people.
