How do you explain the fact that the various nomadic empires, particularly the mongols, were relatively short-lived

Answers

There were many reasons, most coming from the fact that the alliance among the tribes was not as strong as they only followed the leader that united them. After a leader would die the tribes would often each go their own way. They also had various religions and had no sense of national identity, so following a leader cult eventually had to be their end.

For a Constitutional amendment to be considered valid,____ states have to ratify it.

Answers

For a Constitutional amendment to be considered valid,__all 38 of the 50__ states have to ratify it.

Answer:

For a Constitutional amendment to be considered valid three-fourths states have to ratify it.

Explanation:

Article V of the U.S. Constitution talks about the process of changing the Constitution. According to this article, either the Congress or the state legislatures can propose an amendment, either way, in order for an proposed amendment to become part of the Constitution, it first has to be ratified for three-fourths states. So, since nowadays the U.S. has 50 states, in order to change the Constitution, the amendment would have to be approved by at least 38 states.

A statement that expresses socialism:

It is the role of the community to make sure that all people benefit from their hard work.

Explanation:

Socialism puts forth the goal that members of a society all contribute to each other's needs and provide help to one another.  The earliest socialist efforts were somewhat small-sized communities or groups that lived and worked together cooperatively, such as the factory town reformed by Robert Owen at New Lanark, Scotland.  In the modern world, socialism generally means national measures through taxes and government programs so that those with more resources in terms of private property provide aid to those less well off.

The Kingdom of Kongo (Kongo: Kongo dya Ntotila[4] or Wene wa Kongo;[5] Portuguese: Reino do Congo) was an African kingdom located in west central Africa in what is now northern Angola, Cabinda, the Republic of the Congo, the western portion of the Democratic Republic of the Congo,[6] as well as the southernmost part of Gabon.[7] At its greatest extent, it reached from the Atlantic Ocean in the west to the Kwango River in the east, and from the Congo River in the north to the Kwanza River in the south. The kingdom consisted of several core provinces ruled by the Manikongo, the Portuguese version of the Kongo title 'Mwene Kongo', meaning lord or ruler of the Kongo kingdom, but its sphere of influence extended to neighbouring kingdoms, such as Ngoyo, Kakongo, Ndongo and Matamba.[3]

From c. 1390 to 1891 it was mostly an independent state. From 1891 to 1914 it was a vassal state of the Kingdom of Portugal.[citation needed] In 1914, the titular monarchy was forcibly abolished, following Portuguese victory against a Kongo revolt. The remaining territories of the kingdom were assimilated into the colony of Angola. The modern-day Bundu dia Kongo sect favors reviving the kingdom through secession from Angola, the Republic of the Congo, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Gabon.[8]

O Reino do Kongo (Kongo: Kongo dya Ntotila [4] ou Wene wa Kongo; [5] Português: Reino do Congo) era um reino africano localizado no centro-oeste da África no que hoje é o norte de Angola, Cabinda, República do Congo. , a porção ocidental da República Democrática do Congo, [6] bem como a parte meridional do Gabão. [7] Na sua maior extensão, alcançou desde o Oceano Atlântico a oeste até ao rio Kwango a leste, e desde o rio Congo a norte até ao rio Kwanza a sul. O reino consistia em várias províncias centrais governadas pelo Manikongo, a versão portuguesa do título Kongo 'Mwene Kongo', que significa senhor ou governante do reino do Kongo, mas a sua esfera de influência estendeu-se a reinos vizinhos, como Ngoyo, Kakongo, Ndongo. e Matamba. [3]

De c. 1390 a 1891 foi principalmente um estado independente. De 1891 a 1914 foi um estado vassalo do Reino de Portugal. [carece de fontes?]  Em 1914, a monarquia titular foi abolida à força, após a vitória dos portugueses contra uma revolta do Congo. Os restantes territórios do reino foram assimilados na colônia de Angola.

What was the primary purpose of the Three-Fifths compromise?

Answers

The primary purpose of the 3/5 Compromise was to increase representation within the states by including slaves into the states population. Slaves were counted as 3/5 of a person.

The primary purpose of the 3/5ths Compromise was to solve the "issue" of whether or not slaves would count towards a states population. At the time of this compromise, slaves were still considered property rather than people.

On one hand, you wanted Southerners to count slaves towards the population, as this increase in population would result in an increase in representation in the House of Representatives. Northerners did not want slaves to count for the same reason, as it would give Southern states more political power in passing federal laws.

To make both sides content, the 3/5ths compromise was introduced. This stated that every 5 slaves will count as 3 people towards a states population for the purposes of taxes and determining a states representation in the House.

Answers

the church has- or had a more traditional way of things and would look at things such as enlightenment as heretical and wrong. nowadays christain/catholic churches are much more modern and open to new ideas.
The Church opposed many of the new ideas of Enlightenment because the people were beginning to think for themselves, and weren't as willing to accept things just because the Church said it was right. 
Enlightenment encouraged people to rethink the rights of absolutism and mercantilism.
The thinkers of the Enlightenment could not find any scientific proof that the Monarchs were any better than regular people, and the Church didn't agree, as monarch were 'chosen by God'.
