ANALYZING How does Pericles characterize Athens? Explain your answer.
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.

Why was life in the Chesapeake region different from life in New England for early settlers? The climate and soil conditions of the two regions were different. The regions were settled at different times. The people spoke different languages. The Indians were helpful in the Chesapeake but not in New England.
Answer:
The climate and soil conditions of the two regions were different

The following quotation comes from African American leader James McCune Smith, during the Reconstruction Era.
"On the coast of South Carolina, after a year of experimenting on the willingness of
freedmen to work and their ability to support themselves, a plan was begun of cutting
up the large estates into twenty and forty acre plots, to be sold to the freedmen at
government prices... This plan was eminently fair and just; it was also a radical
abolishment of slavery. It made the freedman owner of his own labor, and also an
owner of a fair share of land.... At the first sale of these lands, the freedmen came up
promptly and bought largely, showing the thrift and shrewdness of men worthy of
citizenship."
According to the point of view expressed in the quotation, what was the best way to help former slaves?
To allow plantation owners to buy back their land
To encourage plantation owners to hire former slaves
To assist former slaves in gaining ownership of land
To divide large plantations into smaller plots
Answer: C to help slaves get their own land
12. Explain how historians, archaeologists, anthropologists, and geologists collaborate (work
together) to recreate events in history.
What does each do and how do they collaborate?
Answer:
Archaeologists use written sources to help them find sites where they will find arti- facts. Similarly, historians examine material culture to help them understand what they read. Anthropologists study the characteristics of past and present human communities through a variety of techniques. In doing so, they investigate and describe how different peoples of our world lived throughout history. To establish a relative time frame, geologists have arranged the rocks in a continuous sequence of chronostratigraphic units on a planetary scale, divided into eonothems, erathemes, systems, series and floors, based on stratigraphy, that is, on the study and interpretation of the strata, supported by major biological and geological events.

Does Paine believe that the colonies and the British can reconcile? Why or why not?
Answer:
Reconciliation is not the duty of the colonies. If it were, Paine says, than Britain, half of whose people are of French descent, ought to submit itself to the rule of the French. ... Paine also argues that reconciliation with the British will only cause the present situation to repeat itself.
