Which major source of discontent united many mexicans behind emiliano zapata? a. religious persecution b. economic differences c. foreign intervention d. military repression

B. Economic differences .

Explanation:

Emiliano Zapata is one of the most important figures of the Mexican Revolution which began in 1910. One of Zapata´s main demands was a fair agrarian reform that would redistribute the land amongst peasants so that they could own the products of their labor, seeking more just economic relations between the ruling and powerful class and the working class. Thanks to Zapata´s efforts, the Mexican constitution of 1917 included an important article that aimed at actually redistributing the land amongst peasants, lands that would adopt the name of “hejidos” and which, to this day, are still owned by the workers of the land.  

millitary repression

Explanation:

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. 

julius caesar turned the roman republic into the roman empire by coming in and taking the "dictator" role during the time of a civil war (elites vs lower classes) winning battles and reputation, then declaring him dictator for life
