Answer:

d. our division of time into hours, minutes, and seconds.

Explanation:

The Sumerians were responsible for dividing time the way we do today. First, they determined that the day would begin at sunrise and end only if sunset, where the night would begin that would only end when the sun rose again. After that, observing the skies and their changes throughout the day and night, they developed a complex, but very efficient, division and timing system. They realized that the day could be divided into 24 hours and that each hour could be divided into 60 minutes, so each minute should have 60 seconds.

Why’s was the manga carta for the development of democracy
SpyIntel [72]

Tha Magna Carta signed by King John and the barons of England on the field of Runnymeade in 1215 is the landmark in the development of constitutional government.

Magna Carta, which means 'The Great Charter', is one of the most important  documents in history as it established the principle that everyone is subject to the law, even the king, and guarantees the rights of individuals, the right to justice and the right to a fair trial

This evolution of the Magna Carta's feudal rights into constitutional rights of ordinary people took centuries, since many later English kings successfully ignored the charter. Only in the wake of the Glorious Revolution of 1688 did England succeed in establishing a durable constitutional monarchy with Parliament as the nation's supreme law-making body.

In the early 1800, eager white settlers began desiring lands which belonged to_____?
Luba_88 [7]

<em>Native Americans.</em>

Explanation:

In the early 1800s, white settlers began wanting to expand west, but the land belonged to the Native Americans. The problem was, the Natives did not want to leave whatsoever, and this started to anger the settlers. This was when the Treaty of Echota was brought up, which meant if the Natives traveled to Oklahoma they would keep that land, along with $5 million. Many did not agree to this, which lead to the Trail of Tears, which forced the Natives that did not move west, to walk there in extreme conditions, with little food or water. The Trail of Tears killed most of the Native Americans that took this journey.
