• The word __________ derives from the name of a
French finance minister who, in 1759, was forced by
France's credit crisis during the Seven Years War to
impose severe economic demands upon the French
people, particularly the wealthy. Because of his austere
economies, his name became synonymous with

original religion, Zoroastrianism. It comes from
Persian phrase ____ _______, meaning “Guardians
of Fire,” as fire was sacred to its followers.
