#1. a
I think you're incorrect about
#2. If you read anything in those search results, you'd know that the Peloponnesian War occurred AFTER the wars with the Persians.
#3. Read up on who could and couldn't vote in Athens' democracy.
I don't think any of the answer choices is correct for #4. You should ask your teacher about this one.
An ice age is a long interval of time (millions to tens of millions of years) when global temperatures are relatively cold and large areas of the Earth are covered by continental ice sheets and alpine glaciers.

Now for the two 5's!
#5 about Assyria.
Read this and decide if you chose correctly or not:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neo-Assyrian_Empire
#5 about calendars
I think you're right.
if question 2 if its not a then could it be c or d be my textbook states many greeks outside athens resented athenian domination.before long,the greek world was split into rival camps.
to encounter the delian league,sparta and other enemies of athens formed the peloponnesian league.in 431B.C warfare broke out between athens and sparta.this 27 year peloponnesian war not only pitted these two rivals but soon engulfed all of greece. so i am thinking that it might had something to do with the delian league but i think d sounds more right since question is a and it had to do with greek-city states it must be d would you agree with that?
next for question 3 my textbook states that only citizens could participate in government-voting to choose officals and pass laws holding office -and citizenship was restricted to landowning men over 30 years of age.citizenship meant a responsibility to serve in government and fight for there polis as soldiers wheen needed.so for question 3 if its not a then it must be b would you agree with b?
for question 4 i think i will ask my teacher because my textbook states nothing about the ice age but thank you for your insight.
lol for the first of the two 5 questions my text book states the assyrians began expanding their empire across mesopotamia.for 500 years, they spread terror among the peoples they conquered earning a reputation as one of the most warlike people in history which is why i thought it was b but if its not it must be a or d which i am leaning more towards a would you agree?
thank you for letting me know i was correct with questions 1 and the second 5 lol
#2, yes, d
#3, yes, b
First #5, yes, b
