(C) emancipate enslaved African Americans and end the issue of slavery forever. (D) perserve the union, even if it meant allowing slavery to continue.

Immigrants contributed greatly to American growth in many ways. The first major wave of immigration began in 1880 and consisted mostly of free Europeans and slaved African and Caribbeans. Over the span of almost 50 years, the population grew by more than 25 million people, which was more than a quarter of America's habitants back then.

Population growth aside, the massive amount of immigrants led to big economical and social chages, as European workers got into poorly paid jobs with terrible conditions, had whole families share a small room, and augmented the need for a growth in forms of transport as well.

Consumers should consider the aims of the company advertising the product, the potential inclusion of advertising costs in the product price, and how advertising may influence market competition and product pricing.

When considering the price of a product as advertised, consumers should take into account several factors. Firstly, who owns the product and what they gain from advertising it. Companies use advertisements as a means to increase product awareness and influence consumer choice, aiming to boost sales and, subsequently, profits. The goals of these companies often extend beyond financial gains, aiming to build brand loyalty and shape consumer perceptions. Secondly, the cost of advertising itself may be reflected in the product price. Advertising is expensive, and firms spend significantly to ensure their products are noticed.

This expense might contribute to a higher product price for consumers. Lastly, consumers should consider the potential manipulation of demand and barriers to entry that advertising can create. By fostering intense brand loyalty through advertising, companies can maintain higher prices and deter new entrants, limiting competition.

Globalization is an economic, technological, political, social, business and cultural process on a world scale that consists in the growing communication and interdependence between the different countries of the world uniting their markets, social and cultural, through a series of social transformations, economic and political issues that give them a global character. Globalization is often identified as a dynamic process produced mainly by society, which has opened its doors to the information revolution, reaching a considerable level of liberalization and democratization in its political culture, in its national legal and economic order, and in their national and international relations.

the answer is D.) an inability to export goods to markets

Answer:

1- The correct answer is C. Some white Southerners joined the Klu Klux Klan because it was a powerful way to oppose the North.

2- The correct answer is A. The Klu Klux Klan targeted the Freedmen's Bureau because its members did not believe African Americans should be educated.

3- The correct answer is A. Many white Southerners were opposed to the Reconstruction because they felt Northerners were getting rich at their expense.

Explanation:

1- The Klu Klux Klan was dedicated to oppress the "carpetbaggers" (northern inhabitants who had moved to the south), the "scalawags" (Southern Republicans), and the newly freed slaves. The conservative and supportive past of the Democratic Party made many of its members want to belong to the KKK, in order to oppose the Republican policies that came from the North.

2- The Ku Klux Klan sought political and social control of freed slaves. In particular, it attempted to undermine education, economic advancement, the right to bear arms and the electoral rights of African-Americans.

3- Thousands of Northerners arrived to the south as missionaries, teachers, businessmen and politicians. The hostile whites began to refer to these politicians as "carpetbaggers", accusing them of reaching the south only to make use of their power as part of the victors in the Civil War, in order to obtain economic deals at the expense of the Southern population.

In the south, many African Americans were captured, auctioned, and were forced to be slaves. Many worked in fields. While most wanted to escape, plenty of them were found hiding and were killed. However in the West, African Americans found new homes and jobs. Many lived happily there but some still thought of the south where their family members or children were.

Before the Civil War in 1861, USA depended mostly on tariffs and customs duties for its revenue. However, immediately before the war, the Treasury funds were very low. After the war began, both the North and the South had to find many different methods to fund the costs of the war and maintain revenues.

The South resorted to borrowing and printing money, as well as selling bonds. While the North also borrowed money and sold bonds--and that had a better outcome in the North because wealthy families were encouraged to buy bonds and support the war--it relied more on imposing higher taxes on products and services. Combined with income taxes, this boosted the revenue by about 21%. So the correct answer is B.

Absolutism refers to a system where monarchs like Louis XIV, Tsar Peter the Great, and Tokugawa Ieyasu held centralized and ultimate power, ruling by divine right and without parliamentary or nobiliary checks, shaping national strength and policies unilaterally.

Absolutism in the Rule of Louis XIV, Tsar Peter the Great, and Tokugawa Ieyasu

Absolutism implies the centralization of political power in the hands of a monarch who reigns with unlimited authority over the state. Such rulers are characterized by their assertion of ultimate power and lack of checks from any parliamentary or nobiliary constraints. In the case of Louis XIV of France, also known as the "Sun King," absolutism reached its peak as he centralized the government and ruled by divine right, a concept indicating that his power to govern was given by God, rendering him unanswerable to earthly counterparts. Louis XIV's regime centralized power to such an extent that he reduced the role of nobility in governance and stopped convening advisory bodies like the Estates General, claiming direct control over laws, administration, and taxation.

Tsar Peter the Great similarly exhibited absolutist tendencies in Russia, focusing on modernization and expansion of his empire along Western lines while centralizing power and enforcing his will upon the nobility and the church. In Japan, Tokugawa Ieyasu established the Tokugawa shogunate, an absolutist regime where the shogun held ultimate power over the daimyo and effectively controlled the emperor, establishing a period of peace and central governance known as the Edo period.

These monarchs are prime examples of absolute monarchies during the 17th and 18th centuries, where a single ruler held all political power based on their belief in divine providence or divine rule, making decisions to increase their personal power and leveraging it for national strength and international influence.

A. Both try to inform, inspire, and activate the people with regard to public affairs.

During the First World War the North American Navy was very small compared to the armies mobilized by the European armies. With the declaration of war of the USA to Germany in April of 1917, the Congress approved an Act creating the Selective Service System. This law gave the president - W. Wilson at that time - the power of conscription, calling men for military service. The system consisted of a classification of five levels and expanded the previously allowed ages. By the end of the recluting days, it had achieved more than two million volunteers. This conscription campaign was very successful because it was accompanied by a strong publicity that encouraged men to a patriotic attitude, which guaranteed a high success rate. This recruitment system was left without effect in 1920.

Answer: TRUE

Explanation:

The Constitution of the United States asserts (in Article II, Section 1): "The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America." The role of chief executive means that he or she holds the primary administrative role in the federal government. We often refer to the staff of the White House as the current "administration," such as the Trump administration (in reference to the current president).

True, the President is the head of the executive branch of the federal government, overseeing its operations and enforcement of laws while also being subject to constitutional limits and checks by other branches.

The statement that the President is head of the executive branch of the federal government is true. In the United States, the President serves as the head of state and the head of government, overseeing the executive branch which includes issuing executive orders, submitting the budget to Congress, and ensuring the enforcement of federal laws. The executive branch has grown significantly since the 1930s and 1940s, now encompassing 15 Cabinet-level departments, numerous agencies, and a vast number of federal employees spread across the globe. The President, while powerful within the scope of the executive branch, must still operate within the constraints set by the Constitution and is subject to checks by the other federal branches.

B. The oil fields would enable Germany to fuel their air forces, making them harder to defeat.

Answer:

B. The oil fields would enable Germany to fuel their air forces, making them harder to defeat.

Explanation:

During World War II Nazi Germany was having great success with conquering territories in Europe. Germany did not advance to other continents, but there was concern that the German army would dominate the Arab territory. The conquest of Saudi Arabia would have been crucial for the Germans to secure control over the oil wells and to have free supplies from their air force which could have led them to victory.

In the year 1882, the U.S senate passed the Chinese Exclusion act and was signed by President Chester A. Arthur. During the time period, there was many immigrants, especially Chinese, that immigrated to the United States, which caused a lot of labor. Congress decided to pass this law because a lot of Chinese people were illegally immigrating to the United States and taking away the jobs that the American Citizens wanted. The Act caused the Chinese to be ineligible for naturalization, meaning that they can't become a citizen. Because of the act, the Chinese population in the U.S during that time declined tremendously.

The Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 was passed due to economic fears and racial prejudice against Chinese laborers, leading to the first significant federal immigration restriction based on race in U.S history.

Congress passed the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 due to escalating economic fears and racial prejudice. The act originated from concerns among white Americans, particularly on the West Coast, who feared that Chinese laborers would take away their jobs and drive down wages. This fear was exacerbated by racist rhetoric that framed Chinese immigrants not as individuals with agency, but as mere 'imports' brought in by businesses to undercut the domestic workforce. These narratives fueled existing sentiments of intolerance and led to white mob violence against Chinese communities. Additionally, legal measures such as California's constitution of 1879, which barred naturalized Chinese citizens from voting or state employment, institutionalized this discrimination. The exclusion act, aimed at halting the migration of Chinese laborers, was the first significant federal restriction on immigration based on race and set a precedent for future discriminatory immigration policies, including an expanded version in 1911 that targeted other East Asian groups and the 1924 National Origins Act.

While the Chinese Exclusion Act targeted laborers, it exempted wealthy Chinese, reflecting its primary intent to appeal to working-class Americans who were concerned about labor market competition. The act's passage created a foundation for nearly 60 years of legislated discrimination against Chinese immigrants, only coming to an end with its repeal in 1943 during World War II when America formed an alliance with China.

The correct answer is option B.

Edmond Halley correctly predicted the return of the eponymous comet Halley after he realized several sightings of a comet were in fact the same comet.

By correctly understanding Sir Isaac Newton's law of gravity and also his ideas in mathematics, Halley was able to correctly predict that the comet that now bears his name would return periodically. He did this by discovering Halley's orbit in 1716 and thus being able to predict the year of its return.

1. St. Marks

2. The mountains in the west were taller than the mountains in the east.

3. The middle United States has fewer changes in elevation than the western United States.

Answer:

1- Based on the map, St. Marks, Florida, would be the best location for a shipping port, since it is an open water coastal location. In this way, large ships would be able to maneuver without complications to enter or leave the port.

2- As soon as they moved west from the Mississippi River, Lewis and Clark saw that the mountains in the west were taller than the mountains in the east, since, while east of the Mississippi are the Appalachians, they have a maximum height of 2000 meters, while west of the Mississippi the Rocky Mountains have a maximum peak of 4400 meters.

3- The middle United States has fewer changes in elevation that the western United States. Middle America is characterized for being a region without too much altitude, where the Great Plains are. The West, on the other hand, begins with the Rocky Mountains and has, in general, great elevations, except in the coastal zone.

4- The event that led to the U.S. purchase of Louisiana was the succesful Haitian slave revolt. France was in a hurry to get rid of this colony that had been obtained only two years ago, since the rich colony of Haiti had declared its independence from France, for which the Louisiana had lost its strategic interest for the French.  Napoleon then preferred to sell the colony to the Americans and not run the risk of losing it to the English.

Apart from the physical torture that they were submitted to, I believe the Jews were made to feel as if they weren't even human in the first place.

The phrase Arbeit macht frei, (which means Work sets you free), was often seen at the entrance of many concentration camps, and it summarizes the idea of having to be productive, in the way a machine would be, in order to one day prove to be worthy of the freedom that they were robbed of. I believe this would lead to feelings of despair, deep sadness, and anger towards their abusers, and the frustration of being unable to work more and more, as their health deteriorated progressively.

For me, a person's value goes beyond the material aspect of what they can produce. Even in today's context, people are way more than the money on their bank account or their possessions, they have an intrinsic value as a human being, with their own perspective of the world and principles on which they base their lives.

During the Holocaust, the Nazis implemented a process called "The Selection" in concentration camps, where they determined the fate of prisoners. The Jews, in particular, suffered greatly under Nazi rule, being targeted as scapegoats for Germany's economic troubles.

During the Holocaust, the Nazis implemented a process called "The Selection" in concentration camps, where they determined the fate of prisoners. This process involved separating prisoners into two groups: those who were deemed fit for forced labor and those who were sent to the gas chambers for immediate extermination. The Jews, in particular, suffered greatly under Nazi rule, being targeted as scapegoats for Germany's economic troubles. It is important to note that the worth of a human being is not determined by their ability to produce something; such a belief was a result of the Nazis' distorted and discriminatory ideology.
