"The overseas foreign countries like Vietnam, Cambodia, Korea, Thailand, India, Japan and the various small island countries in

the Pacific are separated from us by mountains and seas. Their lands would not
produce enough for us to justify conquering them. Their peoples would not usefully serve us if we were to include them into our empire. If they were foolish enough to disturb our borders, it would be unfortunate
for them. If they gave us no trouble and we invaded them unnecessarily, it would be unfortunate for us
On the other hand, the barbarians who threaten China from the north and the west are always a danger along our frontiers. We should train our best generals and soldiers to defend ourselves from these northern
and western barbarians
am concerned that future emperors might abuse China's wealth and power and be tempted to pursue short-lived military glories. Let me sharply remind them that starting wars without good reason is forbidden."

tekilochka [14]

Answer:

Human beings might coexist with the natural world if they protect the nature by minimum use of products which disturb the nature.

Explanation:

There is a great relationship between human and nature. Human cannot live without nature. Nature provides water for drinking, food and other necessity of life. If we save nature we stop species extinction because there are millions of species present in the natural ecosystem. If we disturb the nature by burning of fossil fuels and cutting of trees, many species lost their habitat and the whole ecosystem is disturbed. So far maintaining balance in the nature, the human must take some serious steps such as protect water bodies from harmful substances and grow more trees etc.

Why do you think the leaders who followed the Macedonian emperors were unable to maintain the gains and prosperity they had achi
joja [24]

There are multiple reasons for this but the most significant are:

- They were fighting against each other constantly; the leaders that followed after the creation of the enormous Macedonian Empire that was stretching on three continents, divided the empire into few parts, and instead of maybe acting like a confederation so that they can preserve the strength, wealth, and prosper of the empire, they were waging wars against each other and weakened all of the parts of the empire that they were ruling over, which in the end led to the Romans being able to take over the territories in Africa, Europe, Asian Minor and parts of the Middle East.

- The territory left from the previous emperors was too big for a single ruler; the territory left by Alexander of Macedon (the Great) was enormous, and it included lots of different ethnicity, religions, languages, cultures, and also there were lots of people that wanted to be out of the Macedonian Empire, so dividing it into smaller parts so that better and more efficient ruling can be implemented seemed logical, but unfortunately it turned out to just backfire on the leaders that were ruling the parts of the Empire.
