Read the following excerpt about the inca civilization written by spanish conquistador, pedro de cieza de leon, taken from the book chronicles of the incas.

as this kingdom was so vast, in each of the many provinces there were many storehouses filled with supplies and other needful things; thus, in times of war, wherever the armies went they drew upon the contents of these storehouses, without ever touching the supplies of their confederates or laying a finger on what they had in their settlements . . then the storehouses were filled up once more with the tributes paid the inca. if there came a lean year, the storehouses were opened and the provinces were lent what they needed in the way of supplies; then, in a year of abundance, they paid back all they had received. no one who was lazy or tried to live by the work of others was tolerated; everyone had to work. thus on certain days each lord went to his lands and took the plow in hand and cultivated the earth, and did other things. even the incas themselves did this to set an example. and under their system there was none such in all the kingdom, for, if he had his health, he worked and lacked for nothing; and if he was ill, he received what he needed from the storehouses.

based on the excerpt, what can you conclude about the inca government?

it provided for its people during emergency situations.
it exploited its poor and needy by overworking them.
it differentiated between the elite and the poor laborers.
it offered rewards to the empire’s hardest workers.
it gave special privileges to the nobility and their allies.

It provided for its people during emergency situations.

Explanation:

The text shows that people, besides working for their own livelihoods, worked to fill the city's supply stores, because if there was an emergency situation (such as wars, droughts, natural disasters and diseases) that would prevent people from working , the government would provide whatever they needed by withdrawing supplies from the warehouses.

When the emergency situation was over and people could work again, they would return to the warehouse what they consumed and so the stock would never end.

question: write a report analyzing through articles of confederation.

answer: the articles of confederation the united states constitution was written when the people feared strong government the new nation needed some kind of organization to hold states together to them fend off future attacks and make a stronger support system through the states and people the states bonded through a friendship that best served as a defense against a invasion and states were not allowed to use taxes as a way to discourage treaties, and states were extremely limited in their dealings with foreign nations the strengths were that the congress has the highest power in the nation because of   fear of monarchy congress had the sole power to declare war and assign treaties disputes between states and territorial issues were to be brought to congress and weaknesses were the lack of power given to congress the articles gave congress the power to pass laws but no power to enforce those laws if a state did not support a federal law that state could simply ignore it congress had no power to levy taxes or regulate trade.

explanation: so like every argument they have strengths and weaknesses but in this case there were more weaknesses but they managed o get through it and make an agreement
