Answer:He saw the superiority of the African continent and a chance for Belgium to dominate world trade.

part a -

Explanation:

The Congo became part of Belgium's attempt to be a dominant country in Europe, and luckily, in the world. Acquired the Congo in 1884, Leopold had amassed a huge personal fortune from the exploitation of Congo's natural resources - at first thanks to the export of ivory, but it did not yield as much as expected. As global demand for rubber exploded, attention turned to the labor-intensive gathering of rubber from plant sap. This process of exploration was followed by violent practices with the natives, with extensive use of beatings, killings, and mutilations when production quotas were not reached.

ratelena [41]

Answer:

Machiavelli's was born on may 3,1469.He was an Italian politician,philosopher ,writer and a writer.He wrote his most famous work' The Prince' in 1513.

<u>Explanation:</u>He represented various <u>negative thoughts</u> especially in his famous book 'The Prince'.He <u>propagated immoral behavior.</u>According to him a person need not follow moral values in real life.He considered dishonesty  and killing those who are innocent being normal and effective especially in politics.

In his book 'The Prince'.He stressed that a Prince must not only be concerned with his reputation ,but he must  learn to act immorally at right times.It is not bad to be immoral for achieving our objectives.Many readers considered Machiavelli's teachings as evil.

In real life scenario Machiavelli's advice will play a <u>negative role.</u>It will enable every person to act for his selfish motive.It will help  bad people to maintain their power by following dishonest means and becoming cruel towards innocent and honest people.This will cultivate evil in the society.People will forget about their ethics and will become brutal.So according to me Machiavelli's advice should not be implemented.

In what ways does the Declaration reflect France’s specific problem and crises
valentina_108 [34]

"The principle of all sovereignty lies essentially in the nation." The Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen considers legitimate the revolt of the deputies against the absolute monarchy, when declaring as the indispensable right of the man the "resistance to the oppression".

Meaning this that the declaration of the rights of man and of the citizen is the one that declares the principles in the society, leaving behind practices, institutions and principles of the Old Regime. What was lacking basically in France, they were Old Regime.
