Plate tectonics put Japan and the Koreas at risk of drought and famine
Plate tectonics do not directly put Japan and the Koreas at risk of drought and famine. Plate tectonics refer to the movement and interaction of Earth's lithospheric plates, which can cause various geological phenomena such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and the formation of mountains. While these geologic processes can have indirect effects on factors like climate and land formation, the risk of drought and famine in a region is primarily influenced by factors like weather patterns, agricultural practices, water management, and socio-economic factors.
Plate tectonics put Japan and the Koreas at risk of
earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions
Yes, that statement is correct. Plate tectonics and the associated movements of tectonic plates do put Japan and the Koreas at risk of earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions. These regions are located in the Pacific Ring of Fire, which is an area with intense volcanic and seismic activity due to the convergence of several tectonic plates. The movement and interaction of these plates can lead to frequent earthquakes, potential volcanic eruptions, and the generation of tsunamis in the surrounding ocean.

Legalism
the right to rule is given to to dynasty by the highest force of nature
a strong leader and strong laws, not moral values, are needed to create social order
The statement "a strong leader and strong laws, not moral values, are needed to create social order" describes the core belief of Legalism. Legalism was an ancient Chinese philosophy that advocated for a strict system of laws and a powerful ruler to maintain order in society. It emphasized the importance of strict discipline, centralized control, and harsh punishments to ensure social stability and obedience to authority. Moral values and virtues were seen as less significant compared to the effectiveness of laws and the strength of the ruler.
Mandate of Heaven
the right to rule is given to to dynasty by the highest force of nature
The statement "the right to rule is given to a dynasty by the highest force of nature" accurately describes the concept of the Mandate of Heaven. The Mandate of Heaven is a belief in ancient Chinese political philosophy that the ruler or dynasty's authority and legitimacy to govern are granted by a divine or cosmic force. According to this concept, if a ruler upheld virtuous and just rule, they maintained the Mandate of Heaven. However, if a ruler became corrupt or failed to govern effectively, it was believed that the Mandate could be withdrawn, leading to rebellion or the rise of a new dynasty. It was a way to justify political power and provide a moral framework for rulership in ancient China.
How were the Qin Empire and the Han dynasty similar and different?
(1 point)
Responses
Both the Qin and Han were ruled by a powerful emperor, but the Qin believed in the Mandate of Heaven, whereas the Han believed in legalism.
Both the Qin and Han used the Silk Road for trade, but only the Han experienced significant economic benefits.
Both the Qin and Han had an economy based on agriculture, but their farming methods and crops were different.
Both the Qin and Han had a strong central government, but the Han used a civil service system and the Qin did not.
The last response is correct: Both the Qin Empire and the Han dynasty had a strong central government, but the Han used a civil service system, while the Qin did not.
The Qin Empire was ruled by the first emperor, Qin Shi Huang, who centralized power and enacted a series of legal reforms to establish a highly centralized and autocratic government. However, the Qin did not have a civil service system, and power was often concentrated in the hands of the emperor and his close advisors.
In contrast, the Han dynasty, which succeeded the Qin, also had a centralized government, but it implemented a civil service system known as the "merit-based" system. It allowed individuals to enter the public administration based on their knowledge and skill, as determined by competitive examinations. This system aimed to select officials based on their abilities rather than their birth or social status.
So, although both the Qin Empire and the Han dynasty had a strong central government, the method of selecting and appointing officials differed significantly between the two.
