Write a paragraph 5-6 sentences on the rise of city states in Greece.
Answer:
City states in Greece rose from the start of Ancient Greek City, the first of them being Knossos, in Crete. The reason for this is that Greek geography is very difficult to manage: having several mountain ranges, steep cliffs, and peninsulas that made it difficult for a single political entity to rule over all of the land. For this reason, smaller political entities like city states became the preferred method of organization.

1. Explain the historical circumstances that led to the developments shown in the excerpt from The Communist Manifesto.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although you forgot to attach the excerpt or the text, doing some research we can say the following.
The historical circumstances that led to the developments shown in the excerpt from The Communist Manifesto were the following.
German intellectual and thinker Karl Marx had studied how Capitalism negatively impacted European workers. With the help of Friedrich Engles, another German thinker compiled a serious work about how Communism should be a much better alternative for workers. Marx spent some time in France, a place that was the center of socialistic ideas in that time. Then, Karl Marx took these ideas to the extreme and compiled them to write the famous document known as the "Communist Manifesto" on February 21, 1948.

How did Newton describe the concept of gravity and how did it add to the building knowledge of the movements of the heavens?
Answer:
The legend is that Newton discovered gravity when he saw a falling apple while thinking about the forces of nature. Whatever really happened, Newton realized that some force must be acting on falling objects like apples because otherwise they would not start moving from rest. Gravity is what helps keep objects upright in space, so without gravity we'd all be floating around right now.
Should the Electoral College continue to be used? Why or why not? Use examples from your research to support your answer.
Answer:
No
Explanation:
It permits the election of a candidate who does not win the most votes; and. Its winner-takes-all approach cancels the votes of the losing candidates in each state.
Answer:
No, the United States should not continue to use the Electoral College. It is undemocratic. First, it takes a winner-take-all approach, and it cancels the votes of that were cast for the losing candidates in each state. Another problem with the Electoral College is that five times in our nation’s history, it has permitted the election of a candidate who has not won the popular vote. Two examples are during the 2000 election, Al Gore won the popular vote, however George W. Bush was elected and during the 2016 election, Hillary Clinton won the popular vote, but Donald Trump was elected.
Explanation:
This is an opinion. However some facts to help with the opinion include that the Electoral College was created out of a compromise during the Constitutional Convention. It was created to prevent corruption between the members of executive and legislative branches of government. The Electoral College is also used to be a "check" on the regular citizens, because at the time of the Constitutional Convention, the Founding Father's did not necessarily have complete faith in the masses. The United States has changed since the Constitutional Convention and so has the makeup of voters. The right to vote during the Colonial and Revolutionary periods was restricted to white, Protestant, male property owners over the age of 21. Since then, there have been Constitutional Amendments that have allowed more people to vote including women, African Americans, and all members of other minorites who are citizens over the age of 18. Today our voting population is more informed also.

1. Explain why the powers of Britain, France, and Russia responded to revolution in Greece differently than revolution in
Spain, Portugal, or Poland.
Answer:
Baltic Region
Explanation:
European powers like Britain, France and Russia began to indulge in the independence of Greece because of the strategic location. The Balkan became one of the reasons for the starting of the first World War as the European powers wanted to control the area. The Russian Empire wanted to take control of the Black Sea, and the Bosphorus Straits. The Balkan peninsula ruled by the Ottoman Empire, which included countries like Greece, Serbia, etc. By late 1800, the Ottoman Empire began to crumble when people from different ethnic backgrounds start to rise and demanded independence with the help of European nations.
