Overview

Greek city-states developed different forms of governance with very different political structures and strengths.

Greek colonization led to the spread of the Greek language and Greek culture, but it also resulted in tensions with the neighboring Persian empire, culminating in the Persian Wars.

Athens developed democratic institutions and a culture of philosophy, science, and culture; it emerged as a powerful state and allied with other city-states, forming the Delian League.

Resistance to Athens’ power among the other Greek city-states, particularly Sparta, prompted the Peloponnesian War.

Explanation:

answer; people have no objective standard by which to judge themselves;

the third answer is correct (c).

the laws that regulate the financing of political campaigns seek to guarantee the smoothness of funding so that there is no abuse of electoral economic power and to avoid the capture of future politicians by the donors.

this is because donor agents have their private interests that are not necessarily the same interests of the society that elected politicians must defend.

thus, interest groups should seek their interests within the legality of lobbying practices that are regulated.
