Question: According to Joshua Baron a "researcher, lecturer, and consultant on international conflict" since the early 1960s direct military conflicts and major confrontations have "receded into the background" with regards to relations among the great powers. Baron argues several reasons why this is the case, citing the unprecedented rise of the United States and its predominant position as the key reason. Baron highlights that since World War Two no other great power has been able to achieve parity or near parity with the United States, with the exception of the Soviet Union for a brief time. This position is unique among the great powers since the start of the modern era (the 16th century), where there has traditionally always been "tremendous parity among the great powers". This unique period of American primacy has been an important factor in maintaining a condition of peace between the great powers.
Try to answer this question if possible: Who's primacy has factored into maintaining peace among powers?
Answer: American
Question: Some important texts were created and studied by scholars. Philosophical works written by Yang Xiong (53 BC 18 AD), Huan Tan (43 BC 28 AD), Wang Chong (27100 AD), and Wang Fu (78163 AD) questioned whether human nature was innately good or evil and posed challenges to Dong's universal order. The Records of the Grand Historian by Sima Tan (d. 110 BC) and his son Sima Qian (14586 BC) established the standard model for all of imperial China's Standard Histories, such as the Book of Han written by Ban Biao (354 AD), his son Ban Gu (3292 AD), and his daughter Ban Zhao (45116 AD). There were dictionaries such as the Shuowen Jiezi by Xu Shen (c. 58 c. 147 AD) and the Fangyan by Yang Xiong. Biographies on important figures were written by various gentrymen. Han dynasty poetry was dominated by the fu genre, which achieved its greatest prominence during the reign of Emperor Wu.
Try to answer this question if possible: What type of poetry had much influence in the Han dynasty?

Question: The first phase of neoclassicism in France is expressed in the "Louis XVI style" of architects like Ange-Jacques Gabriel (Petit Trianon, 176268); the second phase, in the styles called Directoire and "Empire", might be characterized by Jean Chalgrin's severe astylar Arc de Triomphe (designed in 1806). In England the two phases might be characterized first by the structures of Robert Adam, the second by those of Sir John Soane. The interior style in France was initially a Parisian style, the "Gout grec" ("Greek style") not a court style. Only when the young king acceded to the throne in 1771 did Marie Antoinette, his fashion-loving Queen, bring the "Louis XVI" style to court.
Try to answer this question if possible: What King brought the Louis XVI style to court?
