Question

chinese leaders wanted to control government through families. constant fighting between chinese nobles over land and resources. which best completes the chart? peace develops among provinces; the adoption of confucianism; limitation of family birthrates; establishment of the mandate of heaven

Explanation:

The Chinese leaders' attempt to control government through families and the fighting among nobles were historical events. The Mandate of Heaven was an important concept in Chinese history that justified the rule of emperors and was related to the political - power structure. Peace among provinces is not a direct result of the previous two factors. Confucianism was developed later in Chinese history and not an immediate consequence here. Limitation of family birthrates is not relevant to the context of early Chinese power - struggles. The Mandate of Heaven provided a framework for governance and power legitimacy in the face of power - seeking by leaders and power - struggles among nobles.

Answer:

Establishment of the Mandate of Heaven
