Answer:
The Handsmaid Tale
Explanation:
The Handmaid Tale tells the story of Gilead, a dystopian country ruled by a religious authoritarian government in parts of what used to be United States territory.
Besides many other topics, the show presents Gilead as a rural, traditional oriented society that is transitioning into fully organic agriculture. This transition takes place in response to a global crisis of pollution that has also affected human fertility rates (the main topic of the show).
Gilead is shown as a slow-paced agricultural society which proudly presents itself as the first green nation. The show makes a point of how Gilead has drastically cut down carbon emissions and pollution and how the leaders of Gilead use this as an argument to justify their authoritarian measures.
In contrast, the show presents life before Gilead and life in Canada as more urban life. In a sense, Gilead is at the same time a Utopia and a dystopia. With all the idealized elements of rural life artificially kept by an iron-fisted religious authoritarian government.
Answer:
Explanation:The Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen (French: Déclaration des droits de l'homme et du citoyen de 1789), set by France's National Constituent Assembly in 1789, is a human civil rights document from the French Revolution.[1]
The Declaration was drafted by the Abbé Sieyès and the Marquis de Lafayette, in consultation with Thomas Jefferson.[2] Influenced by the doctrine of "natural right", the rights of man are held to be universal: valid at all times and in every place, pertaining to human nature itself. It became the basis for a nation of free individuals protected equally by the law. It is included in the beginning of the constitutions of both the Fourth French Republic (1946) and Fifth Republic (1958) and is still current. Inspired by the Enlightenment philosophers, the Declaration was a core statement of the values of the French Revolution and had a major impact on the development of freedom and democracy in Europe and worldwide.[3]
The 1789 Declaration, together with the 1215 Magna Carta, the 1689 English Bill of Rights (1689), the 1776 United States Declaration of Independence, and the 1789 United States Bill of Rights, inspired in large part the 1948 United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights
Answer:
no
Explanation:
The Reign of Terror was a dark and violent period of time during the French Revolution. Radicals took control of the revolutionary government. They arrested and executed anyone who they suspected might not be loyal to the revolution. The French Revolution had begun four years earlier with the Storming of the Bastille.
Yes, let's agree with George Washington on this point.
Washington made the statement you quoted as part of his farewell address to the nation, delivered September 17, 1796. The idea in his statement was that whether American by birth or by choice, we rally around the idea of America -- that we are working together as one for the common goals and ideals that America has. The United States of America has always been that kind of nation. The unity of the United States comes from the ideas that together we hold dear, rather than from all persons in the country having the same ethnicity or cultural heritage from which they originated.
