The United States is a presidential representative democracy. We are presidential because our federal government is led by a president (who is essentially elected by the citizens) and not by a prime minister (who is elected by other elected officials). We are representative and democratic because we elect officials to represent us in government.

China is a one-party communist government that does not have fair or open elections, and is led by the leader of the Communist Party, who is chosen by other elite members of that party. Clearly, China is not the best answer.

South Africa is both parliamentary (it has a prime minister) and unitary (it is not a federal state). The U.S. is a federal state, which means it's a union of smaller state governments. So South Africa isn't a perfect match.

India and France have very similar government systems. They both have presidents and bicameral legislatures, are both democratic republics, and both have independent executive, legislative, and judicial branches that are designed to keep each other's power in check.

The key difference is that France is a unitary government, in which most government power is vested in the national government. India is a federal government, in which power is shared by a central government and by various states. For this reason, India is the closest to America, since America has a federal rather than unitary government.

answer: cannibalism, the capac raymi, capacocha, the eight day feast, the combing of the hair

explanation:

the incas have many rituals, cannibalism was always a very ritual thing, which was normally tied to sacrifices, warfare, death, and regeneration.

the capac raymi was one of the most important ceremonies. it occurred around the summer solstice and was when they worshiped their sun god, also known as inti.

the capacocho was another one of their most important ceremonies. it was when many children where selected to start their training, and these children where destined to become sacrificial blessings to their sun god, inti. being chosen for this ritual was a blessing.

the eight day feast was a feast that lasted 8 days and, each day, the day began with a chanting at dawn. a follow up song at noon. which ended with complete silence at the end of the day. on this day, inca royalty was always dressed in silver and gold laced clothing.

the combing of the hair was the most important ritual to young girls. this ritual was known as the coming of age ceremony, but only the most beautiful girls where chosen. in this ceremony, the girls chose their new name and where chosen as either brides, or princesses of rulers.
