Answer:
Explanation:
If a Hindu person were asked to explain the nature of the caste system, he or she might start to tell the story of Brahma — the four-headed, four-handed deity worshipped as the creator of the universe.
According to an ancient text known as the Rigveda, the division of Indian society was based on Brahma's divine manifestation of four groups.
Priests and teachers were cast from his mouth, rulers and warriors from his arms, merchants and traders from his thighs, and workers and peasants from his feet.
Others might present a biological explanation of India's stratification system, based on the notion that all living things inherit a particular set of qualities. Some inherit wisdom and intelligence, some get pride and passion, and others are stuck with less fortunate traits. Proponents of this theory attribute all aspects of one's lifestyle — social status, occupation, and even diet — to these inherent qualities and thus use them to explain the foundation of the caste system.
The Origins of the Caste System
According to one long-held theory about the origins of South Asia's caste system, Aryans from central Asia invaded South Asia and introduced the caste system as a means of controlling the local populations. The Aryans defined key roles in society, then assigned groups of people to them. Individuals were born into, worked, married, ate, and died within those groups. There was no social mobility.

which best explains why floodplains encouraged settlement in the fertile crescent
Answer:
The floodplains provided fertile soil for growing crops.
Explanation:
The Fertile Crescent is a region in the Middle East, south of the mountains of Turkey and Iran. It mainly covers the fertile regions of Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Israel and Jordan, as well as parts of south-eastern Turkey and south-western Iran.
The Fertile Crescent is named after its crescent-like shape and good cultivation conditions, which led to the development of agriculture in the region between 11,000 and 8,000 years BC. Very soon after, irrigation also began, which is a prerequisite for productive agriculture in much of the area. The area is home to most of today’s most important crops and livestock.

The excerpt shows which of the causes of Bacon’s Rebellion? A) favoritism and corruption among colonial elites B) dissatisfaction with royal rule in the colonies C) colonial rivalries between Virginia and New England D) the persecution of Native Americans by British troops
Answer:
Bacon's Rebellion was caused by:
A) favoritism and corruption among colonial elites
Explanation:
According to history, "Governor William Berkeley used new trade rules to increase his wealthy friends’ fortunes" while refusing to officially back the usurpation of the land of the friendly natives on the borders of Virginia. These moves angered "Nathaniel Bacon, who had recently arrived in Virginia and was Berkeley’s cousin by marriage." He termed the situation as "the governor’s disloyalty and unfairness."
Then, in 1676, Nathaniel Bacon led Virginia settlers to challenge the authority of Governor William Berkeley as he continued to protect the interests of the native Americans in the western frontier. The Virginia settlers had believed that the western frontier belonged to them and not to the original native Americans whom they regarded as "barbarous heathen." But, Governor William did not want to legitimize their demand with political authority. His stand further infuriated Nathaniel Bacon, who decided to lead an armed rebellion to sack the natives from their land and later against the Governor, following his proscription of the rebellious group.
2. Explain TWO specific examples of how the development of cities and the construction of
monuments resulted in the rise of mathematics, science and art.
The development of cities required the construction of walls that would protect them from the dangerous invasions that could occur and that put the population in danger, as well as the commerce and wealth of the city. The construction of these walls was very influential in the emergence and development of mathematics, because the construction required a knowledge of counting materials, measurements and even a certain study on the geometric shapes of the materials used. This also influenced the knowledge of some scientific concepts, which despite being archaic and poorly developed, had a great importance in the construction of the walls.
The development of cities was also influenced by the activity of artisans, who were the artists of the time and who were responsible for creating numerous objects important for social advancement, in addition to creating conventional arts such as paintings, music and poetry, which had a character more religious.

In what ways did Chute-pa-lu laws differ from white laws? Did the two groups share some beliefs about laws? What was the significance of spirit law," and how did it differ from other laws, if at all?
Answer: The answer is given below
Explanation:
The chute-pa-lu laws was different from the white laws because they believed that land belonged to everyone, taking another man's land wasn't encouraged and that all men should be treated equally and fairly and that lying is disgraceful. The Chute-pa-lu Laws was typically more peaceful than the white laws.
Chute-pa-lu and white laws shared some beliefs about laws. For example, they both believed that there's a god or a great spirit that sees and hears everything that people do and what we do presently has an effect on our afterlife.
The significance of spirit laws was simply to bring together the people from both groups, and it should be noted that it wasn't really different really at all from the laws of the white men except that they didn’t really speak about everything that they had already planned for the people of Chute-pa-lu.

In your opinion, which of the following models of government is the
closest to a democracy: a monarchy, an autocracy, or an oligarchy? (pg. 16)
Answer:
An oligarchy.
Explanation:
Oligarchy is a political concept that refers to minority rule, in which few people rule by having access to capital or inherited title. Informally, the term oligarchy can generally refer to a limited group with great power, often in a political system with or without formal democratic elements.
Oligarchs sometimes rule in formal democratic systems where dominant politicians constitute a small elite that recreates its parliamentary influence by controlling key economic resources and extensive personal networks. New democratic states are often used as examples of this, but there are also examples of oligarchy tendencies in established democratic political systems.

The small states of Phoenicia and Israel developed due to the decline of the______
and the________
Answer:
The small states of Phenicia and Israel developed due to the decline of the Persian Empire and the Turkish-Ottoman Empire.
Explanation:
Phenicia was a group of city-states located in what is now Lebanon. They had commercial relations with many peoples, mainly the Hebrews and the Persians. However, even in the face of trade relations, the Persian empire oppressed the realization of the state of Phenicia with the violent Persian expansion, and Phenicia could only stabilize with the fall of the Persian Empire.
The state of Israel, on the other hand, took years to be declared and this was only possible after the fall of the Turkish-Ottoman empire, after the Second World War. Britain has seized the lands of the Turkish-Ottoman empire by handing them over to Israel through political agreements.

What is double jeopardy?
Answer: C
Explanation:
the putting of a person on trial for an offense for which he or she has previously been put on trial under a valid charge : two adjudications for one offense
Answer:
Double Jeopardy is where you're tried twice for the same crime.
Explanation:
The other person that answered had some advanced wording and might be hard to read. Search up 5th amendement (or 6th amendment) and it'll give more info on it. " 5th amendment double jeopardy ".
Double jeopardy is when you are tried twice for the same crime, you cannot go to two trials of the same crime you committed. Here's an example:
John was framed, he had to go to trial. He was found not guilty. But then the other side decided to appeal the case and John was going again and was found guilty. This is not fair to John. This is why its against the law to be tried twice for the same crime.
