In this area Wolsey had some successes especially one called the subsidy in reality this was Wolsey's greatest achievement because, he was the royal almoner he planned out and organized king Henry's war in France very well, he raised lots of money for the war by replacing the fixed tax of fifteenths and tenths which required those who earned very very small money to pay like the rich people did, this new tax was more fair for the rich people, by making a more efficient tax system this enabled Wolsey to raise a lot of money for the king, making over
At the temple of Meryre both Akhenaten and Nefertiti are shown enthrones. Along with this Nefertiti was beloved by the people and held great sway over them. All of this would have made her a great candidate for a co-regency. If this is true, it means that Akhenaten’s relationship with Nefertiti grew to a level where it became political. The quote “… at hearing whose voice the King rejoices, the Chief Wife of the King, his beloved, the Lady of the Two Lands, Neferneferuaten – Nefertiti, May she live for Ever and Always.” From an Amarna inscription indicates that Akhenaten relationship with Nefertiti was not only through their children, equal on both sides and political but also romantic.
How did the Successor Kings attempt to legitimise their monarchies in the century following the death of Alexander the Great? The successor kings engaged in many stratagems to legitimise their monarchies in the century following the death of Alexander.

An Nguyen History 103 Theme paper 2 5/12/2009 Religion and Politics in Ancient Laws Throughout the ages of history, code laws were created to keep peace for civilizations. These codes were made with the purpose of attaching the so called “human laws” as close to “heaven laws” as possible no matter which civilization or which religion.
