You are a time-traveling trouble-shooter. While passing through the late Middle Ages, you happen to overhear the following conversation between a plowman and his master. Master: What sayest thou plowman? How do you do your work?
Plowman: O, my lord, I work very hard: I go out at dawn, driving the cattle to the field, and I yoke them to the plow. Nor is the weather so bad in winter that I dare to stay at home, for fear of my lord: but when the oxen are yoked, and the plowshare and coulter attached to the plow, I must plow one whole field a day, or more.
Master: Have you any assistant?
Plowman: I have a boy to drive the oxen with a goad, and he too is hoarse with cold and shouting.
Master: What more do you do in a day?
Plowman: Certainly I do more. I must fill the manger of the oxen with hay, and water them and carry out the dung.
Master: Indeed, that is a great labor.
Plowman: Even so, it is a great labor for I am not free.

You decide to stop and help the poor plowman. How can he improve his job so he grows more crops and hopefully has more time to enjoy life? Remember, he can only use items that are available in his world. (Hint: There are three main actions he can take.)

john maynard keynes developed new economic theories in response to the : b) great depression of the 1930s. his theories are so important that they are known as "keynesianism". in his works he supports the idea of a government with deeper involvement and intervention to end the great depression.

athenian democracy developed around the fifth century bc in the greek city-state (known as a polis) of athens, comprising the city of athens and the surrounding territory of attica, and is often described as the first known democracy in the world. other greek cities set up democracies, most following the athenian model, but none are as well documented as athens'.

it was a political system of direct democracy, in which participating citizens voted directly on legislation and executive bills. participation was not open to all residents: to vote one had to be an adult, male citizen, i.e., not a foreign resident, a submissive or a woman, and the number of these was "probably no more than 30 percent of the total adult population."[1]

the longest-lasting democratic leader was pericles. after his death, athenian democracy was twice briefly interrupted by oligarchic revolutions towards the end of the peloponnesian war. it was modified somewhat after it was restored under eucleides; the most detailed accounts of the system are of this fourth-century modification rather than the periclean system. democracy was suppressed by the macedonians in 322 bc. the athenian institutions were later revived, but how close they were to a real democracy is debatable. solon (594 bc), cleisthenes (508/7 bc), and ephialtes (462 bc) contributed to the development of athenian democracy. cleisthenes broke up the power of the nobility by organizing citizens into ten groups based on where they lived rather than on their wealth.

hope this !
