Answer:
c
Explanation:
Answer:
A
Explanation:
I think the other answer is wrong. With Option B, Mencius never claims that a ruler cannot be challenged. With C, Mencius doesn't even mention God! With D, this is tricky. While Mencius does imply that Heaven is where the legitimacy arises, he also says that Heaven challenges candidates for the title of ruler. So, it's a close run between D and A, but in the end, A closes out because it's more specific. Also, the clearer reason that D is wrong is that it says that Bossuet claims that there is a secular will behind the legitimacy of a ruler, but secular means non-religious, and all Bossuet talks about is religion, so that one is kind of stupid. The passages are pasted below for reference.
Refer to the two passages.
Source 1
"Shun rose [to the empire] from among the channeled fields. Foo Yueh was called to office from the midst of his [building] frames and [earth-] beaters; Kaou Kih from his fish and salt; Kwan E-woo from the hands of the officer in charge of him; Sun Shuh-gaou from [his hiding by] the sea-shore; and Pih-le He from the market-place.
Thus, when Heaven is about to confer a great office on any one, it first exercises his mind with suffering, and his sinews and bones with toil; it exposes his body to hunger, and subjects him to extreme poverty; and it confounds his undertakings. In all these ways it stimulates his mind, hardens his nature, and supplies his incompetencies.
Men constantly err, but are afterwards able to reform. They are distressed in mind, and perplexed in thought, and then they arise to vigorous endeavour. When things have been evidenced in men’s looks, and set forth in their words, then they understand them.
If a ruler have not about his court families attached to the laws and able officers, and if abroad there are no hostile States or other external calamities, the State will generally come to ruin.”
Mencius, fourth century BCE
Source 2
"It appears from all this that the person of the king is sacred, and that it is a sacrilege to attack him. God has His prophets anoint them with a sacred unction, as He has His pontiffs and His altars anointed. But, even without the external application of this unction, their charge renders them sacred, as being the representatives of the divine majesty, delegated by His providence to the execution of His designs. It is thus that God Himself speaks of Cyrus as His anointed—‘his right hand I have holden to subdue nations before him.’ The title of Christ is given to kings; and everywhere we see them called the Christ, or the anointed of the Lord.”
Bishop Jacques-Bénigne Bossuet, explaining the divine right of kings, 1678

Men of passive dispositions look somewhat lightly over the offenses of Great Britain, and, still hoping for the best, are likely to call out, "Come, come, we shall be friends again for all this."...But examine the passions and feelings of mankind: bring the idea of reconciliation to the nature of man, and then tell me whether you can hereafter love, honor, and faithfully serve the power that has carried fire and sword into your land? If you cannot do all these, then you are only deceiving yourselves….
Your future connection with Britain, whom you can neither love nor honor, will be forced and unnatural, and being formed only on the plan of present convenience, will in a little time fall into a worse condition more wretched than the first. But if you say, you can still pass the violations Great Britain has done the colonies over, then I ask, hath your house been burnt? Hath your property been destroyed before your face? Are your wife and children destitute of a bed to lie on, or bread to live on? Have you lost a parent or a child by their hands, and yourself the ruined and wretched survivor? If you have not, then are you not a judge of those who have. But if you have, and can still shake hands with the murderers, then are you unworthy the name of husband, father, friend or lover, and whatever may be your rank or title in life, you have the heart of a coward…

o lt led to increased inflation in Spain.
0 It increased demand for Spanish slaves.
0 It led to an increase in immigration from the Americas.

Use the excerpt from William Bennett Munro’s Crusaders of New France to answer the question.
Which conclusion about the impact of environmental conditions on New France does the excerpt BEST support?
A.
Variable climate conditions discouraged French colonists from settling in the St. Lawrence River Valley.
B.
The forested landscape of the interior limited French ambitions and confined them to lands adjacent to the British.
C.
Rugged, wooded terrain hindered French efforts to build large agricultural communities like those in the British colonies.
D.
Early French settlers lacked the technology to clear and develop tracts of land sizable enough to support large populations.
Answer:
Rugged, wooded terrain hindered French efforts to build large agricultural communities like those in the British colonies.
Explanation:
"Much of the land on both the north and the south shores of the St. Lawrence was heavily timbered, and the work of clearing proved tedious"
French efforts to build an agricultural community in the New France area to contribute towards a cultivable land in one of its Colony like the British was largely limited due to the topographic features of the landmass. They were encouraged to clear wooden terrain, especially timber to make it a productive landmass. However, most of the efforts went in vain even after half a century of settlement due to the conditions and their desire to make New France one of the most productive agricultural community failed.

a strong loyalty to a state or region, sometimes at the expense of a nation
the idea that states have powers separate from the federal government
the idea that a state could refuse to follow a federal law it disagreed with
a system that divides power between national and state governments
Option C is correct.
:)
The idea that a state could refuse to follow a federal law it disagreed with of the following describes nullification. Thus, option (c) is correct.
According to the legal principle known as nullification, U.S. states have the right to reject any federal laws they judge to be unconstitutional. Thomas Jefferson coined the phrase in 1798.
It is common to use the word "nullification" in a political context to mean the act of canceling something. Nullification also refers to a state's lack or refusal to assist the federal government in enforcing laws inside its borders. The concept of nullification is based on the assumption that governments have sovereign authority over their own affairs.
Therefore, option (c) is correct.
