Answer:

The Ottoman Turks were determined to capture Constantinople. Their nickname for it was the 'Golden Apple', the ultimate prize.

Explanation:

The Ottoman Turks were determined to capture Constantinople. Their nickname for it was the ‘Golden Apple’, the ultimate prize. Like New York, the ‘Big Apple’ of our times, Constantinople, the Golden Apple, was seen at the time as the ultimate metropolis, the ultimate object of desire. Given all this, it was clear that eventually, the city must fall, and the real wonder is how long it had held out, given its deeply weakened state.

The House of Representatives is the name by which the lower house of Congress (legislative branch) is known. In the United States, the House of Representatives is made up of representatives from each state, the number of representatives depends on the amount of population of the states.

The representatives to the chamber are chosen by means of the vote of the citizens. The winners are those that get the most votes and in some cases (the states with the largest population) second rounds are held to choose them.

Another important aspect of the House of Representatives is that each representative is elected for a period of two years and can be re-elected.

<h3>What is the Senate?</h3>

The Senate is the name by which the upper house of Congress (legislative branch) is known. This has the function of creating and modifying the laws according to the needs of the citizens and the conjunctural moments that the nation experiences.

Your first question needed some context.  I'll respond to your second question.

The Oslo I Accord was signed in Washington, DC, in 1993.
The Oslo II Accord was signed in Taba, Egypt, in 1995.

Before the signing of the first Oslo Accord agreement, there had been secret negotiations taking place between representatives of Israel and of the Palestinian Liberation Organization  (PLO).   The resulting agreement was called the Oslo Accord because the negotations took place in Oslo, Norway, since a Norwegian researcher and a Norwegian diplomat had helped to get the secret negotiations started.   After the 1993 agreement, further negotiations continued, and the Oslo II Accord (also known as the Taba Agreement) was signed in 1995.

How has Western Europe responded to its declining birth rate?
worty [1.4K]
It's mostly been done through immigration. The number of the people in the workforce has been going down and it's been solved with immigration because a large number of immigrants are capable of joining the workforce. Also, there's the EU policy that member countries can exchange workforce without having special visas so that helps too.
