(1 point ) Tyrants frequently established dynasties that ruled until they were overthrown by the people . Tyrants were often supported by the middle class who wanted political reform Wealthy and aristocratic citizens usually lost influence when a new tyrant took power Many tyrants were military leaders who promised to extend more rights to citizens

Answer 1

The statement that is NOT correct is: "Many tyrants were military leaders who promised to extend more rights to citizens."

While some tyrants may have had military backgrounds, the primary motivation of many tyrants was to seize and maintain power, often at the expense of traditional rights and privileges of the citizens. Many tyrants ruled autocratically and did not necessarily promise to extend more rights to citizens; instead, they often focused on consolidating their power.
