Which of the following groups were polytheists? a. egyptians b. hebrews c. both

The answer is A. Egyptians.

Hebrew's religion is Judaism, its term was the name given to Abraham's descendants about 4000 years ago, Abraham was the first person to teach the idea that there was only one almighty God.

In opposition to Hebrews, the religion of Egyptians was polytheistic. Over the course of its history, hundreds of gods and goddesses were worshiped. The characteristics of them could vary and weren't always entirely defined, the majority were benevolent, and they usually represented one aspect of the earth, for example, "Ra" was the sun god, "Nut" was the goddess of the sky and "Seth" embodied the malevolent and disordered aspects of the world.

Their physical form also varied from an animal, a human or the combination of both, and not so common was the "comic Gods" or fantasy Gods, such as Bes, with the appearance of a dwarf, and Taurt, a goddess whose physical form combined the features of a hippopotamus and a crocodile.

after the civil war, and with the termination of slavery, the south was faced with a big problem; what was supposed to happen and how they were supposed to deal with the freedom and the rights that black people and freed slaves had gained as a result of the north defeating the south and forcing the end of slavery. first, most, if not all, of the workforce of the south came from slaves and they did not have an option to replace the loss of said workforce. second, particularly in the south, people were convinced that black people were lesser, less intelligent, less capable and less smart than whites. this posed a huge problem for them. also, southerners were faced with another issue; freed slaves now had a say in how their lives would be lived and the right to politically choose the way they would be governed. people in the south did not want to accept this, none of this and this opposition and the conflicts that arose from it, not to mention the afereffects of the war, forced the congress of the time to enact and enforce the reconstruction plans that had been proposed by president andrew johnson.
