I have this small exert and I don't understand it. The question wants me to A. describe one historical development reflected in

the passage and B. describe Machiavelli's argument concerning the uses of antiquity.
Here's the passage -
"Consider the general respect for antiquity. Consider, for example, how often we pay great price for some fragment of an ancient statue, yo ornament our houses of to give to artists who strive to imitate it in their own works. . . . And yet to found a republic, maintain states, govern a kingdom, organize an army, conduct a war, dispense justice, and extend empires, you will find neither prince, nor republic, nor captian, nor citizen who uses the historical examples of antiquity! . . . The majority of those who read history take pleasure only in the variety of the events which the history of the ancients relates, without ever thinking of imitating their noble actions."
Niccolò Machiavelli, introduction to his treatise on the Roman historian Livy, circa 1517​

Nikolay [14]

The correct answer is redress.

Redressing is a process in which an individual tries to get the ruling of a previous court case changed. This process involves a system of appeals, with the Supreme Court being the highest court of appeals in the country. Any ruling that results from a Supreme Court trumps any state law currently in place. This is because the Supreme Court is the most powerful court in the United States of America.

If Mr. Smith won his case, it would set a new precedent (example) in the United States.

Compare and contrast the author’s depictions of Nicholas II and Vladimir Lenin. What do these depictions reveal about these hist
Vinvika [58]

Answer: The comparison of Nicholas II and Vladimir Lenin

Explanation Both the leaders were hungry for power and came onto to become leaders by promising good for the people but the similarity didn't catch one's eye but how different to each historical figure was has been highlighted many a time.

  • Nicholas II was czar and hence being born into a royal family made him an obvious leader whereas Lenin gained prominence in the party and came into power thus.
  • Lenin had the willingness to lead Russia used the Bolshevik party to do so, however the Tsar was happy to be with his family and pets and not a bit interested in leadership.
  • Nicholas II and his entire family were assassinated whereas Lenin died of natural causes way later.
  • Lenin was the more brutal of the two and used his power to get what he wanted even if it meant  torturing or murdering. here Nicholas made some concessions.
  • The military responsibility was on Nicholas II during his regime but when Lenin took over he would delegate it.

Finally, none of them actually cared for the poor, the oppressed were further in distress when these two came to power.
