Mussolini, as the other leaders that became dictators during this period, was promising the people certain things to convince them to have him elected, and he managed to get to office, but after he did, he quickly changed his rhetoric. Once Mussolini had the power in his hands, he showed his real face. In order to assure his position on the long run, he started persecuting, imprisoning, and eliminating the people he saw as threat to his power. He employed the military and police forces in order to control everything in the country and to use the fear factor in his advantage, quickly taking control over the whole country and establishing himself as the only authority in it.

The Hernandez v. Texas case expanded the Fourteenth Amendment's protections to include Mexican Americans, establishing their rights to Equal Protection and addressing systemic discrimination.
Explanation:The Hernandez v. Texas case was important in the fight against discrimination because it marked a significant expansion of the civil rights protections afforded by the Fourteenth Amendment. The Supreme Court's unanimous decision established that the Fourteenth Amendment's protections extend beyond just African Americans to other ethnic groups, specifically including those of Mexican ancestry. This was a landmark ruling as it recognized Mexican Americans as a distinct class entitled to Equal Protection under the Fourteenth Amendment, overturning a history of exclusion from jury service and addressing institutionalized discrimination within the judicial system.
6. Why did immigrants turn to political machines?
Answer:
Immigrants supported political machines because they provided jobs
Explanation:
If its multiple choice please specify :)
Political machine, in U.S. politics, a party organization, headed by a single boss or small autocratic group, that commands enough votes to maintain political and administrative control of a city, county, or state.
The rapid growth of American cities in the 19th century, a result of both immigration and migration from rural areas, created huge problems for city governments, which were often poorly structured and unable to provide services. In those conditions, political machines—such as Tammany Hall, run by boss William Magear Tweed (1823–73) in New York City—were able to build a loyal voter following, especially among immigrant groups, by performing such favours as providing jobs or housing.
Political machines are characterized by a disciplined and hierarchical organization, reaching down to neighbourhood and block organizers, that enables the machine to respond to the problems of individual neighbourhoods, or even families, in exchange for loyalty at the polls. The term refers to their ability to elect candidates or enact measures with mechanical efficiency and predictability.
Although the primary goal of a political machine is keeping itself in power rather than providing good government, machines have been responsible for restructuring city governments to centralize authority, improving facilities and services, helping to assimilate immigrant groups, and encouraging the growth of business and industry. Supporters of political machines say that they “work” and that consolidating power in the hands of a boss, like Mayor Richard J. Daley (1902–76) of Chicago, guarantees city governments the power and authority that they need to cope with urban problems effectively. However, because political machines in such cities as Boston, Philadelphia, New York, Pittsburgh, Chicago, and Kansas City have also been responsible for many abuses of power, the term carries a pejorative sense.
Organizers who “deliver” the votes are often rewarded with patronage jobs. However, patronage can result in poorer service to the citizens because appointees may be neither qualified for their jobs nor interested in performing them. Control of both elective and appointed posts also gives a machine control of government salaries and revenues, which can be used to enrich the party at the public’s expense. For example, the machine may accept donations or kickbacks from businesses in return for such favours as tax or zoning concessions or the award of lucrative public-works contracts. In some cities, machine business dealings have included accepting money from organized-crime syndicates in exchange for protection from legal interference.
In cities whose neighbourhoods are divided along ethnic or racial lines, machine patronage may aggravate hostilities by awarding most jobs and services to those people of the same background as the city’s power elite. In practice, this made machine politics the last defense of white neighbourhoods against growing black populations, while black politicians who anticipated power viewed their constituents as merely the latest in a series of ethnic or racial groups that had benefited from the machine.
Since the 19th-century heyday of machine politics, civil service reforms limiting the number of patronage jobs, the institution of direct primaries rather than party nomination of candidates, the municipal operation of public utilities, and judicial review by state and federal courts have all reduced the power of political machines. The steady exodus of city residents to the suburbs since World War II and a more mobile population with fewer ties to particular neighbourhoods have also weakened the social base that once made political machines synonymous with city government.
What were Mussolini's political leanings in his early days?
Answer:
Socialism/Communism
Explanation:
Mussolini was not a hard-lined nationalist and fascists all along. In his youth, Mussolini was actually with political leanings that are the opposite of the nationalism, he was far left wing, or rather he was a socialist. As a young journalist, Mussolini was propagating the socialist doctrines, and that got him in lot of troubles with the Italian officials despite him not even being in the country, but in Switzerland and Austria-Hungary. As he was getting older though, Mussolini started to change his political views, and from far left winger, he became far right winger.

Answer:
The correct answer is B. In the 1876 presidential election, Tilden won the popular vote, Hayes narrowly won the electoral vote, and votes in four states were disputed.
Explanation:
The presidential elections of 1876 were the most disputed and intense in the electoral history of the United States of America. Samuel J. Tilden of New York defeated the Republican candidate, Rutherford B. Hayes from Ohio, in the popular vote. Thus, Tilden would receive 184 electoral votes against 165 of Hayes, but 20 votes, that came from the states of Florida, Louisiana and South Carolina, were not counted and were in dispute. Each party declared its voters as winners, but in Ohio a Democratic elector was dismissed from his position for holding a public office. Finally, Hayes assumed the presidency on March 4, 1877.

The spread of cultural elements from one area or group of people to others by contact is called diffusion. In an anthropological context, diffusion involves complex relations of trade, migration, and conquest, leading to the spread of material objects, practices, and ideas among cultures. One common manifestation of this process is through expansion diffusion, where ideas or cultural practices spread outward from a core area. Additionally, modern society is experiencing a significant amount of globalization, which facilitates the sharing of cultural elements worldwide through travel and technological communication, leading to acculturation and cultural leveling.
Which was the most prosperous colony?
Final answer:
The most prosperous colony varied by criteria, but in the 17th century, the Caribbean sugar colonies like Barbados and Jamaica were Britain's most profitable. In North America, the middle colonies and some southern colonies like Maryland and Virginia showed substantial economic growth based on cash crops and trade.
Explanation:
Identifying which was the most prosperous colony in the 17th century depends on the criteria used for measuring prosperity. The Caribbean colonies like Barbados and Jamaica, centered around sugar cane, were among the most profitable for the British due to the booming sugar economy. However, within the thirteen colonies, the middle colonies experienced significant economic growth. New York and New Jersey, with their commercial focus, and Pennsylvania with its mixed population and relative prosperity for groups like Germans, Scotch-Irish, and Puritans, showed considerable economic activity and diversity.
Delaware also experienced substantial growth, and when combined with New York and New Jersey, they outpaced other regions. Meanwhile, colonies like Maryland, Virginia, the Carolinas, and Georgia thrived on cash crops like tobacco, rice, and indigo, facilitated by the fertile soil and long growing seasons. Despite varying degrees of prosperity across regions due to factors like soil fertility, climate, and access to trade, it is the sugar-producing Caribbean islands that stand out as the height of British colonial wealth during the 17th century.

Answer:
The Effects were similar.
Explanation:
The effects were similar, because they both had to deal with the existing problem of the Great Depression.
While the effects of the Great Depression were similar, you must note the way they handled the problems were differently.
The US, with her strong democratic background, was able to weather the storm of the Great Depression.
On the other hand, Germany's newly created government did not have the capability to deal with the amounting pressure of paying back the war debt & reparation as well as dealing with the GD. This led to the rise of Fascist leaders and the popularity of one now known as Adolf Hitler, who led the country into a warring state that soon led to the militirization of the country and the expansion of the Nazi regime.

How would you explain the new toughness Ponyboy has? Why is his behavior different?
Answer:
Ponyboy does not have to speak much at the hearing, since his doctor has spoken to the judge about Ponyboy’s condition. The judge asks Ponyboy a few gentle questions about his home life and then acquits him of all wrongdoing and allows him to return home with his brothers. After the hearing, Ponyboy becomes detached and depressed. His grades suffer, he loses his coordination, memory, and appetite, and he resumes fighting with Darry. Ponyboy’s English teacher, Mr. Syme, says that although Ponyboy is failing, he can raise his grade to a C by writing an outstanding autobiographical theme.
The next day at lunch, Ponyboy goes to the grocery store with Steve and Two-Bit for candy bars and Cokes. When a group of Socs accosts him, he threatens them with a broken bottle, saying he refuses to take any more of their intimidation. Ponyboy’s uncharacteristic show of hostility alarms Steve and Two-Bit, and they warn Ponyboy not to grow hard like Dally was. They are relieved when Ponyboy bends down to pick up the broken glass, not wanting anyone to get a flat tire.
That night as Ponyboy and Darry fight about Ponyboy’s grades, Sodapop runs out of the house, upset that Sandy has returned a letter he wrote her unopened. Darry explains that Sodapop is not the father of Sandy’s child and acts puzzled that Sodapop never told Ponyboy. Ponyboy reflects that he probably acted uninterested when Sodapop tried to talk about his problems. Worried, Darry and Ponyboy go find Sodapop. He tells them their constant fighting is tearing him apart. Sobbing, he asks them to try to understand each other and stop fighting. They promise to try. Ponyboy thinks that Sodapop will hold them together.
The boys run back home. Ponyboy looks at Johnny’s copy of Gone with the Wind. He finds a handwritten note from Johnny urging him to stay gold and saying that the children’s lives were worth his own. Ponyboy realizes that he wants to tell the story of his friends so that other hoodlums will not nurse their anger at the world and ignore the beauty in it. He begins to work on his English theme, starting with the words that begin The Outsiders: “When I stepped out into the bright sunlight from the darkness of the movie house, I had only two things on my mind: Paul Newman and a ride home.”
Collectivization is a communist system in which public government farms are broken
up and distributed to individual people of businesses
True
False
Answer:
False
Explanation:
The collectivization is a process through which there's forced consolidation of the individual peasant households into collective farms. Basically, this was a process in which the people that were more capable, hard working, managed to prosper in life and have larger pieces of land, were forced to give their land to the others and all together to work on it and own it in a way, with everyone having an equal share. This was going to the advantage of the people that were lazier, were not very smart, and din't really had any chance of prospering in normal circumstances. This process led to destroying the capable people in the communist countries, which led to major economic problems, especially when it came to the agriculture, so very often there was lack of food.

What was the most significant use of German submarines during World War I?
Answer:
Germans used submaries to shoot down any ship entering their waters. They shot down multiple US citizen ships during the war
Explanation:
The most significant use of German submarines, or U-boats, during World War I was in unrestricted submarine warfare aimed at crippling the British economy. The indiscriminate sinking of ships including the RMS Lusitania and several American vessels prompted international outcry and increased pressure on the U.S to enter the war.
Explanation:The most significant use of German submarines, or U-boats, during World War I was in unrestricted submarine warfare, a move which sought to cripple the British economy. Initially, German U-boats followed the custom in naval warfare which entailed warning enemy ships before attacking to allow the crew to abandon ship. However, after some German submarines were destroyed upon revealing their presence, they began to attack without warning and this escalated to the sinking of passenger and merchant ships, including those from neutral countries.
One noteworthy incident was the sinking of the RMS Lusitania, a British passenger liner which was mistakenly suspected to transport military weapons. This incident resulted in the deaths of more than a dozen U.S. citizens and agitated the international community. In 1917, Germany resumed unrestricted submarine warfare, effectively treating any ship in a war zone as an enemy vessel. The sinking of several American ships subsequently put pressure on the U.S to enter the war.

Candidate A:
"People are responsible for one another. We will all benefit if everyone gives their fair share. My opponent, Candidate B, doesn't really care about people."
Candidate B:
"Individual responsibility is of primary importance. We will create jobs and grow the economy by cutting taxes. My opponent, Candidate A, is a bit naive and inexperienced."
Given these statements, evaluate how likely it would be for each candidate to be in favor of government-funded health care.
Candidate A would be probably be opposed to government-funded health care. Candidate B would probably be in favor of it.
Both candidates would probably be in favor of government-funded health care.

Candidate A would probably be in favor of government-funded health care. Candidate B would be probably be opposed to it.
Based on their debate statements, Candidate A is likely to support government-funded health care due to their community-focused outlook, while Candidate B is likely to oppose it due to their emphasis on individual responsibility and tax cuts.
Explanation:Evaluating the statements from Candidate A and Candidate B, we can infer their positions on government-funded health care. Candidate A, advocating the idea that people are responsible for one another and the collective benefit of everyone contributing their fair share, suggests a philosophy in line with progressive politicians who are more likely to support government involvement in health care. In contrast, Candidate B's focus on individual responsibility and economic growth through tax cuts aligns more with conservative views, suggesting opposition to government-funded health care and preference for privatized solutions or individual insurance responsibility.
The correct answer to the question of which candidate would likely be in favor of government-funded health care is: Candidate A would probably be in favor of government-funded health care. Candidate B would probably be opposed to it.
