Explanation:

The Hellenistic era refers to the historical period from the 323 BC to 31 BC during which the Roman Empire emerged. This historical period is mainly recognized due to the influence Greeks have in part of Europe, Asia, and Africa and the advancements achieve in multiple areas including literature, art, music, mathematics and other sciences. This included the construction of the Library of Alexandria (a Greek polis) located in Egypt (Africa) from 285 to 246 during the reign of Ptolemy II. It is believed this library contained around 500,000 papyrus scrolls with works related to different areas and the advancements of the Greek civilization. From these ideas, it can be concluded the library that was built during the Hellenistic era and contained 500,000 scrolls related to science and literary arts was the Library of Alexandria located in Egypt.

                the united states presidential election of 1912 was the 32nd quadrennial presidential election, held on tuesday, november 5, 1912. the election was a rare four-way contest.

                incumbent president william howard taft was renominated by the republican party with the support of its conservative wing. after former president theodore roosevelt failed to receive the republican nomination, he called his own convention and created the progressive party (nicknamed the "bull moose party"). it nominated roosevelt and ran candidates for other offices in major states. democrat woodrow wilson was finally nominated on the 46th ballot of a contentious convention, to the support of william jennings bryan, the three-time democratic presidential candidate who still had a large and loyal following in 1912. eugene v. debs, running for a fourth time, was the nominee of the socialist party of america.

                wilson won the election, gaining a large majority in the electoral college and winning 42% of the popular vote, while roosevelt won 27%, taft 23% and debs 6%. wilson became the only elected president from the democratic party between 1892 and 1932, and the second of only two democrats to be elected president between 1860 and 1932. this was the last election in which a candidate who was not a republican or democrat came second in either the popular vote or the electoral college, and the first election in which all 48 states of the contiguous united states participated.

hope this !
