Question

which achievements of ramses ii brought positive changes to egypt? choose five correct answers.

• signing peace treaties
• storing food supplies, due to the annual flooding of the nile river
• rebuilding temples and government buildings
• encouraging higher education
• ruling for a long period of time
• waging many wars
• growing and expanding the economy

Explanation:

To determine the correct answers, we analyze each option based on Ramses II's achievements:

1. Building temples and government buildings: Ramses II was known for extensive construction projects, including temples (like Abu Simbel) and government structures.
2. Increasing higher education: He promoted cultural and intellectual development, supporting education.
3. Signing a peace treaty: He signed the first known peace treaty with the Hittites, bringing stability.
4. Growing and expanding the economy: His reign saw economic growth through trade and resource management.
5. Improving water heaters is incorrect (no historical record of this). Making food supplies due to unusual Nile flooding is incorrect (flooding was natural, not his achievement).

The correct five are:

• Building temples and government buildings
• Increasing higher education
• Signing a peace treaty
• Growing and expanding the economy
• (Note: Assuming one more valid option—if "ruling for a long period of time" is considered, as his long reign stabilized Egypt, that could be included. However, based on typical achievements, the core correct ones are construction, education, peace treaty, economy, and long reign.)

Answer:

• Building temples and government buildings
• Increasing higher education
• Signing a peace treaty
• Growing and expanding the economy
• Ruling for a long period of time

(Note: Adjust based on exact historical context, but these align with Ramses II’s known achievements.)
