Answer from: bry7474

burns - covering the burned area with a wet cloth

wounds - apply pressure to the wound for at least five minutes

choking - encourage them to cough. If the airway is only partly blocked, the person will usually be able to speak, cry, cough or breathe.

Answer from: happy121906

For first degree burns you must cool the burn by placing the area affected under cool (not cold) water until pain subsides. Use compresses if running water is not available. Next make sure to protect the burn by covering it with sterile, non-adhesive bandage or clean cloth. Do not apply butter or ointments which may cause infection. Then, treat the pain with a pain reliever such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen. For wounds, you must try to make it stop bleeding by applying direct pressure on the cut or wound with a clean cloth. If the wound is on the arm or leg, raise limb above the heart ,if possible, to help slow bleeding. Then clean the cut or wound and protect with an antibiotic cream to reduce risk or infection. Do not use hydrogen peroxide or iodine for cleaning the wound as it can lead to tissue damage. For choking, give back blows to the affected person between their shoulder blades with the heel of your hand, give up to 5 blows. If the person is still choking do thrusts. Perform a total of 5 abdominal thrusts. Only do these thrusts if the victim is not pregnant or too obese. Give CPR if necessary.

pacal the great: the throne was passed on to pacal through a female; as a result, he believed that he must legitimize his claim to the throne to add stability to his reign.

as a result, the daughter of ac kan's brother ruled until her son, pacal, reached an age old enough to assume the throne.

pacal the great became the king of the mayan city of palenque in a different way than most mayan kings.

pacal pointed out that ac kan had succeeded his mother as ruler, thereby establishing a precedent for the rule to pass through a female.

he tried to justify that the way he gained the throne by connecting his mother with the divine mother and the mythological events that happened during the creation of the world.

typically, the son of a male mayan ruler inherited the throne, but in 612 ce, king ac kan died and did not leave behind a male heir.

montezuma 1: even so, these wars of conquest failed to provide enough human sacrifices and because of this, he formed a triple alliance with cities in the valley of puebla-tlascala.

in addition, montezuma realized that his government failed to the aztecs during the famine.

in order to appease him, montezuma increased the number of human sacrifices.

the aztec performed human sacrifices to their god huitzilopotchli because they believed he desired human blood.

around 1440 ce, montezuma i became the fifth emperor of the aztecs and went on to rule for 28 years.

soon after he assumed the throne, the aztecs were hit with a series of disasters, namely a plague of locusts, a flood, and a harsh frost

huayna capac: huayna capac also fought to gain territories north of his empire in what is now ecuador.

huayna capac significantly extended the inca empire to the south, into what is now argentina and chile.

in 1493 ce, huayna capac became the eleventh ruler of the inca empire.

huayna, therefore, wanted to gain his own lands and launched campaigns against tribes to the east and north of the empire.

the inca empire reached its peak under the rule of huayna capac.

during this time the empire covered a vast territory including parts of present day colombia, peru, argentina, chile, bolivia, and ecuador.

during his reign, huayna heard about bearded men with pale skin that resembled the incan1 god viracocha and took this news as a bad omen.

huayna took this as another bad omen that predicted the destruction of the empire.
