writeacher,thank you
if question 2 if its not a then could it be c or d be my textbook states many greeks outside athens resented athenian domination.before long,the greek world was split into rival camps.
to encounter the delian league,sparta and other enemies of athens formed the peloponnesian league.in 431B.C warfare broke out between athens and sparta.this 27 year peloponnesian war not only pitted these two rivals but soon engulfed all of greece. so i am thinking that it might had something to do with the delian league but i think d sounds more right since question is a and it had to do with greek-city states it must be d would you agree with that?
next for question 3 my textbook states that only citizens could participate in government-voting to choose officals and pass laws holding office -and citizenship was restricted to landowning men over 30 years of age.citizenship meant a responsibility to serve in government and fight for there polis as soldiers wheen needed.so for question 3 if its not a then it must be b would you agree with b?
for question 4 i think i will ask my teacher because my textbook states nothing about the ice age but thank you for your insight.
lol for the first of the two 5 questions my text book states the assyrians began expanding their empire across mesopotamia.for 500 years, they spread terror among the peoples they conquered earning a reputation as one of the most warlike people in history which is why i thought it was b but if its not it must be a or d which i am leaning more towards a would you agree?
thank you for letting me know i was correct with questions 1 and the second 5 lol
my mistake i will consider that for next time. thank you for getting back to me i apperciate it have a great day take care writeacher.

my mistake thank you writeacher, however some of these websites i already visited and they don't make me too sure about my answers. and they kind of confuse me this information is not present either in my textbook.and my school teacher just tells me to the the best i can which is why i asked if anyone was familar with world history. can you help a little more like let me know if any of my answers are correct? based on your knowledge or help me do the process of elimination. please i could really use your help thank you.
I think you're right about
#1. a
I think you're incorrect about
#2. If you read anything in those search results, you'd know that the Peloponnesian War occurred AFTER the wars with the Persians.
#3. Read up on who could and couldn't vote in Athens' democracy.
I don't think any of the answer choices is correct for #4. You should ask your teacher about this one.
An ice age is a long interval of time (millions to tens of millions of years) when global temperatures are relatively cold and large areas of the Earth are covered by continental ice sheets and alpine glaciers.

Now for the two 5's!
#5 about Assyria.
Read this and decide if you chose correctly or not:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neo-Assyrian_Empire
#5 about calendars
I think you're right.
I had to add vertical spaces in order to read your reply. Please do so in the future so everything doesn't all run together!
#2, yes, d

First #5, yes, b
1.) For the first question, the correct answer is actually d) arguments over control of the Delian League. The Peloponnesian War began in 431 BCE and was a conflict between Athens and Sparta, with their respective allies. The Delian League was an alliance of Greek city-states led by Athens, and the war was in part due to disagreements and power struggles within this league.
2.) For the second question, the correct answer is c) conflict over control of the Delian League. This answer aligns with the previous question. The Peloponnesian War was indeed caused by conflicts over the control and influence exerted by Athens through the Delian League.
3.) For the third question, the correct answer is a) more citizens had been allowed to take part in the government. Athens was known for being a democracy, but it was not a complete democracy because not all citizens had equal participation rights. Only adult male citizens who had completed military training and who were not slaves or foreigners were allowed to vote and participate in government.
4.) For the fourth question, the correct answer is actually d) three cold weather periods each lasting 100,000 years. The ice ages are characterized by long periods of cold climate with significant ice accumulation. There have been several ice ages throughout Earth's history, but typically, there were three major ice age periods, each lasting around 100,000 years.
5.) For the fifth question, the correct answer is b) efficient military organization and warlike spirit. The military conquests of the Assyrians were made possible by their disciplined military organization, advanced tactics, and their reputation for being fierce warriors. Their armies were well-organized and highly trained, which allowed them to conquer vast territories.
6.) For the last question, the correct answer is c) the seasons would change. Calendars were developed to help early people track and predict the changing of seasons. This was important for agricultural societies as it helped them determine the appropriate timing for planting and harvesting crops, and also for religious and cultural reasons. It wasn't primarily for political or movement purposes, but rather to understand and adapt to the natural cycles of the year.
