Answer:
Pericles sees Athens as having the ultimate possible government; the one best conducive to freedom, liberty, courage, honor, and justice – the values most honored by the Athenians. Pericles extolls several of the virtues of Athens, most of them centered on the then-unique form of democracy.
Pericles was a prominent and influential Greek statesman, orator and general of Athens during its golden age, specifically the time between the Persian and the Peloponnesian Wars. He was descended, through his mother, from the powerful and historically-influential Alcmaeonid family. Pericles had such a profound influence on Athenian society that he was acclaimed by Thucydides, a contemporary historian, as "the first citizen of Athens". Pericles turned the Delian League into an Athenian empire and led his countrymen during the first two years of the Peloponnesian War. The period during which he led Athens, roughly from 461 to 429 BC, is sometimes known as the "Age of Pericles", but the period thus denoted can include times as early as the Persian Wars or as late as the next century.

what were the International connections that the Dutch Empire had during WW1
The Netherlands remained neutral during World War I. This stance arose partly from a strict policy of neutrality in international affairs that started in 1830 with the secession of Belgium from the north. Dutch neutrality was not guaranteed by the major powers in Europe, nor was it a part of the Dutch constitution. The country's neutrality was based on the belief that its strategic position between the German Empire, German-occupied Belgium, and the British guaranteed its safety.[1]
The Royal Netherlands Army was mobilized throughout the conflict, as belligerents regularly attempted to intimidate the Netherlands and place demands on it. In addition to providing a credible deterrence, the army had to house refugees, guard internment camps for captured soldiers, and prevent smuggling. The government also restricted the free movement of people, monitored spies, and took other wartime measures.

Explanation:
What ideas or events
caused the populations of Philadelphia and
New York City to change over time?
Answer:
Today marks the 229th anniversary of the start of the constitutional convention in Philadelphia. A few things have changed since then, from how much people drank to who could vote, to how tall people were.
Independence Hall still stands, a few blocks south of the National Constitution Center, with much of the building restored to show its condition in the late 18th century.
Ben Franklin’s house, which also stood a few blocks from the hall, is long gone. The original City Tavern is also gone in Philadelphia, but a replica stands in its place, open for business since 1976.
Back in 1787, the delegates who started the convention on May 25th were locked in a building for most of the summer, without the modern comfort of air conditioning.
The press was barred from covering the event , even though there were 10 newspapers in Philadelphia at the time.
The population of the United States of America was about 3.9 million, according to the 1790 Census. About 700,000 people were being held as slaves. And outside of the census were at least 150,000 Native Americans.
Among that population, only a small number of people were eligible to vote, about 6 percent. Most states restricted voting to white adult men of property.
Today, registered U.S residents who are 18 years of age or older can vote. In 2008, more than 132 million people voted in the general election.
The young nation’s capital was in New York City, compared with Washington, D.C. today.
The biggest city in the U.S. in 1787 was Philadelphia, soon to be surpassed by New York. The City of Brotherly Love had about 40,000 residents in its vicinity.
Today, New York City has more than 8 million residents.
At the convention of 1787, 12 of the 13 states in the union were represented during the summer. Since 1959, the U.S. has had 50 states.
Back in the post-Colonial day, the average life expectancy was around 34 ½ years of age, compared with 78 years of age in 2011. (There are differing life expectancy estimates for people who were slaves in that era.)
But in some ways, things weren’t that different. The average height of a male in 1787 was 5 feet 8 inches, compared with 5 feet 9 ½ inches today. And among the general male populace, excluding those held in slavery, daily meat consumption averaged 8 ounces per day, about one ounce more than today.
However, there was a big difference in the amount of alcohol consumed in 1787. Drinking everything from beer to cider to whiskey to rum to wine was part of everyday life for men, women and children. A good number of people drank at three meals a day (if they had three meals) and at social gathering spots.
Some historians argue that the imbibing needs to be put in context. During the era, people did more physical labor and worked in more extreme conditions, which led to more calories being burned off quickly.

how were spains goals for exploring the American s DIFFERENT from the goals of France and Great Britain
im sorry i dont understand the quetion
The Spanish goals were different from the goals of France and Britain because they explored the Americas for North West passage and a route for trade.

The factor responsible for setting prices in a free-market system is Supply relative to demand. Thus the correct option is B.
What is the Price?A price refers to the amount which takes place between two individuals when performing the exchange of goods and services. This price is determined by the willingness of both parties involved in the exchange.
A free market system indicates a market structure where the demand and supply maintain the balance of the market and determine the prices.
It can understand with the fact that Demand and supply are measures of how willing both buyers and sellers are to purchase and sell goods.
When both buyers and sellers can reach an agreement on a price, a commodity exchange takes place. As a result, it says that supply in relation to demand influences pricing.
Therefore, option B is appropriate.

Labor Unions in the 1800s were successful in achieving their goals.
A) True
B) False
Answer:
B. False
Explanation:
The Labor Union in the 1800s fail to obtain enough public support to pay attention to their cause. Many business workers cooperate with politicians to shut the workers down every time they initiated protests without the employers' permission. This made it really hard for the labor unions movement to flourish.

This acts mandated companies to pay a standardized minimum wage for the employees, banning the child labor practice, and making sure that all workers are paid for working over time. None of these could exist without the initial effort made by the early labor union in 1800s.
