The correct option is C

In Aristotle's rhetoric, pathos, ethos and logos are the three fundamental pillars. Nowadays, these three categories are considered different ways of convincing an audience about a particular topic, belief or conclusion. Let's delve into the subject below. In essence, pathos is to seek empathy with the audience. When used, the values, beliefs and understanding of the arbiter are involved and communicated to the audience through a story.

the answer you are looking for is letter c. he supported the idea of a un-run war in serbia to bring peace to the area.

supporting this idea was an important step that bill clinton took in order to attempt to secure bosnia and keep the peace there. he led peace reconciliations -known as the dayton agreement- leaving bosnia as a single state made up of two parts with one central government.

ngai (engai, enkai, mweai, mwiai) is the monolithic supreme god in the spirituality of the kamba and kikuyu of kenya.ngai is creator of the universe and all in it. the kikuyu worshiped ngai facing the mt. kirinyaga (mount kenya) while prayers and goat sacrificial rituals were performed under the sacred mugumo tree (a fig tree species). ngai often was referred to as "mwene nyaga" meaning (the owner of the mountain).

it means that maasai people think that mount kenya is something to be worshipped along with god.when cattle or children cause problems,maasai elders just warn them that children must mend their bad ways or their god might punish them.this serves as law and order tool to maintain peace among maasai tribe.the maasai are an indigenous ethnic group in africa of semi-nomadic people settled in kenya and northern tanzania. due to their distinct traditions, customs and dress and their residence near the many national game parks of east africa, the maasai are among the foremost african ethnic groups and are known internationally because of their links to the national parks and reserves.

traditional maasai people's lifestyle concentrates on their cattle which make up the primary source of food. amongst the maasai and several other african ethnic groups, the measure of a man's wealth is in terms of children and cattle. so the more the better.
