William taft was considered to be Roosevelt's protege and yet the republican party chose Taft over Roosevelt as a candidate during the presidency. Because of this, Roosevelt choose to leave the republican party and created the Progressive party.

The correct answer is C. Roosevelt left the Republican Party because Taft defeated him in Republican primaries after he had already served two terms as a Republican President.

Theodore Roosevelt was the twenty sixth president of the United States from 1901 to 1909, representing the Republican Party.

Roosevelt declined to stand for re-election in 1908, and left the country to travel through Europe and Africa. Upon his return to the United States, he faced the new president William Howard Taft. In 1912 he tried to snatch the Republican nomination from Taft; As he did not succeed, he founded the Progressive Party. In the following elections, Roosevelt managed to be the only candidate of a third party to be in second place in a presidential election in the United States, beating Taft but losing against Woodrow Wilson.

the exact role and status of women in the roman world, and indeed in most ancient societies, has often been obscured by the biases of both ancient male writers and 19-20th century ce male scholars, a situation only relatively recently redressed by modern scholarship which has sought to more objectively assess women's status, rights, duties, representation in the arts, and daily lives; and all this from almost exclusively male source material dealing with a male-dominated roman world.

women in mythology

unlike some other ancient cultures such as the greeks who had formed a creation myth where woman was a creature secondary to man and, more specifically, in the form of pandora, a bringer of unhappiness and vices, the romans had a more neutral approach where humanity, and not specifically the male, was created by the gods from earth and water. ovid's metamorphoses, for example, does not specify whether the first human was a man or a woman. at least in a physical sense then men and women were not regarded as belonging to a different species as in the greek world, a view often reiterated in roman medical treatises.
