What was the result of napoleon's invasion of russia? a) stalemate b) french defeat c) russian defeat d) napoleon was killed

The correct answer is B) French defeat.

Indeed, Napoleon had assembled one of the greatest land armies of his time (450,000 men) and he invaded Russia during the early summer of 1812. Russians employed a brutal scorched earth tactic, depriving Napoleon’s troops of anything that could be used to feed them or their horses or to house them.

They lost the Battle of Borodino outside Moscow in September but then burned Moscow to the ground in order to prevent the French from spending the winter there. Their retreat was catastrophic. Harassed by the extreme cold weather and by Russian attacks, only 40,000 of the original survived the Berezina Battle in November.

Napoleon’s Empire would never recover from such defeat and was ultimately defeated and removed from power in 1814.

social contract theory basically says that all individuals are born equal, and provided a god given right to consent to be governed. american government is based of this

thomas hobbes and john locke said that we are selfish, individualistic, and constantly at war with each other, therefore we need to be controlled. 

government is defined as the legitimate use of force to control human behavior within territorial boundaries, here comes in hobbes and locke.

hobbes takes the part about controlling human behavior. while locke takes the part of legitimate use of force, since force is not legitimate unless there is consent of the people. 

there are basically 3 goals of the government: 1) maintain order by protecting life and property. 2) providing public goods, those which are typically not provided by the public sector, such as roads and education. 3) promote equality be it political, opportunist or outcome equality.
