A:Given the fragmentary nature of the existing evidence, it is impossible to ascertain an exact date for the beginning of the uprising, but it is probable that it began in-between summer and fall 132. The Romans were overwhelmed by the organised ferocity of the uprising. Hadrian called his general Sextus Julius Severus from Britain, and brought troops in from as far as the Danube. Roman losses were heavy; an entire legion or its numeric equivalent of around 4,000. Hadrian's report on the war to the Roman Senate omitted the customary salutation, "If you and your children are in health, it is well; I and the legions are in health." The rebellion was quashed by 135. According to Cassius Dio, Roman war operations in Judea left some 580,000 Jews dead, and 50 fortified towns and 985 villages razed. Using primary documents, historians have been able to confirm Dio's estimates that no more than one in ten residents were enslaved. Beitar, a fortified city southwest of Jerusalem, fell after a three and a half year siege. The extent of punitive measures against the Jewish population remains a matter of debate. B:While looking at the results of this battle, one might say that the villages and the Jewish population were decimated, due to the common misconception that "decimate" means to utterly destroy, when it actually means to reduce a population by 10%.  From the estimates given, if any, can you say with reasonable confidence that actually the opposite occurred, and 10% remained alive? Answer: imported

The population proportion that was enslaved was given as no more than 10% by Cassius Dio, but to historians, it is unknown whether this figure can be fully trusted. Beitar, a fortified city southwest of Jerusalem, fell after a three and a half year siege. The extent of punitive measures against the Jewish population remains a matter of debate. B:If accounting records were to be unearthed that revealed just how many Jewish slaves were taken after these events, would this figure satisfy an unanswered question of modern-day historians?

A:Chess is an abstract strategy game and involves no hidden information. It is played on a square chessboard with 64 squares arranged in an eight-by-eight grid. At the start, each player (one controlling the white pieces, the other controlling the black pieces) controls sixteen pieces: one king, one queen, two rooks, two knights, two bishops, and eight pawns. The object of the game is to checkmate the opponent's king, whereby the king is under immediate attack (in "check") and there are ways for it to escape. There are also several ways a game can end in a draw. B:Is the game in checkmate if the king can't escape? Answer:
