Answer 2

The Whitewater Scandal involved accusations that: Bill Clinton pressured David Hale into making an illegal loan.

What is Whitewater Scandal?

In the 1990s, there was a political incident in America called the Whitewater controversy, sometimes known as the Whitewater Scandal, "Whitewatergate,". It all started with an inquiry into Bill and Hillary Clinton's and their friends Jim and Susan McDougal's real estate holdings in the Whitewater Development Corporation. This unsuccessful enterprise was founded in 1979 with the intention of building vacation homes on property along the White River close to Flippin, Arkansas.

According to a March 1992 New York Times article released during the 1992 U.S. presidential election, the Clintons, the state's governor and first lady at the time, invested in the Whitewater Development Corporation and lost money on it. L. Jean Lewis, a Resolution Trust Corporation investigator who was looking into the collapse of Madison Guaranty Savings and Loan, which was also controlled by Jim and Susan McDougal, was intrigued by the report.

In November 1993, David Hale, who is the subject of criminal accusations against the Clintons, stated that Bill Clinton had exerted pressure on him to give a fraudulent $300,000 loan to Susan McDougal, the Clintons' business partner in the Whitewater property deal. Because Hale did not bring up the Clintons in connection with this loan during the first FBI investigation into Madison Guaranty in 1989—he did so only after being charged himself in 1993—the accusations were seen as dubious.

The McDougals were found guilty as a consequence of an inquiry by the US Securities and Exchange Commission into their involvement in the Whitewater project. Jim Guy Tucker, the governor who succeeded Bill Clinton, was found guilty of fraud and given a four-year probationary period. Susan McDougal was sentenced to 18 months in jail for contempt of court for her refusal to respond to inquiries about the Whitewater scandal.

However after three different investigations concluded that there was insufficient evidence connecting Bill and Hillary Clinton to the illegal behaviour of individuals connected to the property sale, none of them was ever brought to justice. Republican Kenneth Starr, the Whitewater Independent Counsel, oversaw the case. The final Independent Counsel, Robert Ray (who took over for Starr), released the last of these probes in 2000. Prior to his resignation, President Clinton pardoned Susan McDougal.

Hence, the correct option is b.

Answers

Answer:

Sparta was a warrior society in ancient Greece that reached the height of its power after defeating rival city-state Athens in the Peloponnesian War (431-404 B.C.). Spartan culture was centered on loyalty to the state and military service. At age 7, Spartan boys entered a rigorous state-sponsored education, military training and socialization program. Known as the Agoge, the system emphasized duty, discipline and endurance. Although Spartan women were not active in the military, they were educated and enjoyed more status and freedom than other Greek women. Because Spartan men were professional soldiers, all manual labor was done by a slave class, the Helots. Despite their military prowess, the Spartans’ dominance was short-lived: In 371 B.C., they were defeated by Thebes at the Battle of Leuctra, and their empire went into a long period of decline.

Classical Athens was a powerful city-state. It was a centre for the arts, learning and philosophy, and the home of Plato's Academy and Aristotle's Lyceum. It is widely referred to as the cradle of Western civilization and the birthplace of democracy , largely because of its cultural and political impact on the European continent—particularly Ancient Rome. In modern times, Athens is a large cosmopolitan metropolis and central to economic, financial, industrial, maritime, political and cultural life in Greece. In 2021, Athens' urban area hosted more than three and a half million people, which is around 35% of the entire population of Greece.

Athens is a Beta global city according to the Globalization and World Cities Research Network , and is one of the biggest economic centers in Southeastern Europe. It also has a large financial sector, and its port Piraeus is both the largest passenger port in Europe , and the second largest in the world.

The Municipality of Athens (also City of Athens), which actually constitutes a small administrative unit of the entire city, had a population of 664,046 (in 2011) within its official limits, and a land area of 38.96 km2 (15.04 sq mi) .The Athens Urban Area or Greater Athens extends beyond its administrative municipal city limits, with a population of 3,090,508 (in 2011) over an area of 412 km2 (159 sq mi) . According to Eurostat in 2011, the functional urban area of Athens was the 9th most populous in the European Union (the 6th most populous capital city of the EU), with a population of 3.8 million people. Athens is also the southernmost capital on the European mainland and the warmest major city in Europe.
