Which events led to the end of athens's power and greatest glory? choose all answers that are correct. a. defeat by sparta b. defeat by the persians c. a plague d. a famine

The correct answers are A and C , as the defeat by Sparta and a plague during the war led to the end of Athens' power and greatest glory.

The resentment of other cities for the hegemony of Athens, led to the Peloponnesian War in 431 BC. Athenians and their maritime empire faced off against a coalition of states led by Sparta. This conflict marked the end of Athenian glory and the beginning of Sparta as the greatest power in Greece, at which time the government of the "Thirty Tyrants" was established.

The Athens' greatest glory was also ended by the Plague of Athens, that was a devastating epidemic that affected mainly the city-state of Athens in the year 430 BC, in the second year of the Peloponnesian War. It is believed that it must have arrived in Athens through Piraeus, the port of the city and the only source of food and supplies.

answer: secession

secession, as it applies to the outbreak of the american civil war, comprises the series of events that began on december 20, 1860, and extended through june 8 of the next year when eleven states in the lower and upper south severed their ties with the union. the first seven seceding states of the lower south set up a provisional government at montgomery, alabama. after hostilities began at fort sumter in charleston harbor on april 12, 1861, the border states of virginia, arkansas, tennessee, and north carolina joined the new government, which then moved its capital to richmond, virginia. the union was thus divided approximately on geographic lines. twenty-one northern and border states retained the style and title of the united states, while the eleven slave states adopted the nomenclature of the confederate states of america.
