Answer: 34
Explanation: John Quincy Adams; (July 11, 1767 – February 23, 1848) was an American statesman, diplomat, lawyer, and diarist who served as the sixth president of the United States from 1825 to 1829. He previously served as the eighth United States Secretary of State from 1817 to 1825. He previously served as the eighth United States Secretary of State from 1817 to 1825. During his long diplomatic and political career, Adams also served as an ambassador, and represented Massachusetts as a United States Senator and as a member of the United States House of Representatives.
He was the eldest son of John Adams, who served as the second US president from 1797 to 1801. Initially a Federalist like his father, he won election to the presidency as a member of the Democratic-Republican Party, and in the mid-1830's became affiliated with the Whig Party. Born in Braintree, Massachusetts, Adams spent much of his youth in Europe, where his father served as a diplomat. After returning to the United States, Adams established a successful legal practice in Boston.
In 1794, President George Washington appointed Adams as the U.S. ambassador to the Netherlands, and Adams would serve in high-ranking diplomatic posts until 1801, when Thomas Jefferson took office as president. Federalist leaders in Massachusetts arranged for Adams's election to the United States Senate in 1802, but Adams broke with the Federalist Party over foreign policy and was denied re-election. In 1809, Adams was appointed as the U.S. ambassador to Russia by President James Madison, a member of the Democratic-Republican Party.
Adams held diplomatic posts for the duration of Madison's presidency, and he served as part of the American delegation that negotiated an end to the War of 1812. In 1817, newly-elected President James Monroe selected Adams as his Secretary of State. In that role, Adams negotiated the Adams–Onís Treaty, which provided for the American acquisition of Florida. He also helped formulate the Monroe Doctrine, which became a key tenet of U.S. foreign policy.
The 1824 presidential election was contested by Adams, Andrew Jackson, William H. Crawford, and Henry Clay, all of whom were members of the Democratic-Republican Party. As no candidate won a majority of the electoral vote, the House of Representatives held a contingent election to determine the president, and Adams won that contingent election with the support of Clay.
As president, Adams called for an ambitious agenda that included federally-funded infrastructure projects, the establishment of a national university, and engagement with the countries of Latin America, but many of his initiatives were defeated in Congress. During Adams's presidency, the Democratic-Republican Party polarized into two major camps: one group, known as the National Republican Party, supported President Adams, while the other group, known as the Democratic Party, was led by Andrew Jackson.
The Democrats proved to be more effective political organizers than Adams and his National Republican supporters, and Jackson decisively defeated Adams in the 1828 presidential election. Rather than retiring from public service, Adams won election to the House of Representatives, where he would serve from 1831 to his death in 1848. He joined the Anti-Masonic Party in the early 1830's before becoming a member of the Whig Party, which united those opposed to President Jackson.
During his time in Congress, Adams became increasingly critical of slavery and of the Southern leaders whom he believed controlled the Democratic Party. He was particularly opposed to the annexation of Texas and the Mexican–American War, which he saw as a war to extend slavery.
He also led the repeal of the "gag rule," which had prevented the House of Representatives from debating petitions to abolish slavery. Historians generally concur that Adams was one of the greatest diplomats and secretaries of state in American history, but they tend to rank him as an average president.

D. The United States restricts trade in order to protect American
workers from competing with lower-paid foreign workers.
Answer:
It C
Explanation:
Answer:
The United States supports human rights to maintain its status as
Explanation:
The United States is the largest economic and military power in the world, being the most important player in global geopolitics. The US led the consolidation of capitalism and democracy in most countries. In addition, the US takes the lead in protecting human rights. The 1787 American Constitution was the starting point since it already sets out essential guarantees for American citizens. After the Second World War, the United States played a leading role in the formation of the UN and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
The United States therefore works to encourage and ensure, as far as possible, that human rights are respected around the world. This contributes to maintaining its status as a world leader.
A country cannot be truly democratic until its citizens have the opportunity to choose their representatives through elections that are free and fair. Critical development efforts cannot succeed without a legitimate and democratically elected government that is responsive and accountable to its citizens. Elections provide an important opportunity to advance democratization and encourage political liberalization. For an election to be free and fair, certain civil liberties, such as the freedoms of speech, association and assembly, are required. Elections can be a primary tool to foster political openings and expand political participation. Electoral processes offer political parties and civic groups an opportunity to mobilize and organize supporters and share alternative platforms with the public. Elections also serve to encourage political debate and public dialogue. –"Supporting Free and Fair Elections," US Agency for International Development What is the main idea of this passage?
1. Free and fair elections help a democracy choose good leaders.
2.Free and fair elections disenfranchise voters.
3. Free and fair elections are necessary for a democracy to function.
4.Free and fair elections provide voters with civil liberties.
Answer:
3. Free and fair elections are necessary for a democracy to function is the correct answer.
Explanation:
As stated in the question, the excerpt belongs to "Supporting Free and Fair Elections." To support the correct answer it is necessary to mention that the speaker provides the results of elections ("provide an important opportunity to advance democratization and encourage political liberalization") and then, the characteristics of a fair and free election are described, appealing to freedom of speech and other rights that make a democracy work properly. The excerpt also describes other effects, such as the discussions and debates generated around them, so number 3 is the correct answer.
Answer:
C. Free and fair elections are necessary for a democracy to function

Final answer:
During the American Civil War, estimated Confederate casualties included about 220,000 soldiers killed or dying of wounds, and approximately 400,000 died from disease, with the total number reaching at least 260,000 Confederate soldiers dead by 1921.
Explanation:
During the American Civil War (1861–65), the Confederate casualties were significant. It is estimated that about 220,000 Confederate soldiers were killed or died of wounds, and approximately 400,000 died from infectious diseases. However, by the year 1921, historical estimates suggest that the total number of Confederate soldiers who had lost their lives due to the war, including those from battle deaths and disease, was at least 260,000. The human cost of the Civil War was immense, with the South facing not only these deaths but the worst property damage and loss.

Which area on the map corresponds to land that belonged to the Cherokee tribe prior to their location
The correct location on the map that corresponds to land that belonged to the Cherokee tribe prior to their relocation would be in the region of the modern states of Georgia, Tennessee, and parts of North Carolina and Alabama.
Prior to the forced relocation known as the Trail of Tears, the Cherokee Nation's territory primarily spanned the southeastern United States, including large portions of what are now Georgia, Tennessee, and parts of North Carolina and Alabama. This is the area where the Cherokee people had established their homes, farms, and governmental institutions. The Indian Removal Act of 1830 led to the forced migration of the Cherokee and other tribes to what was designated as Indian Territory, primarily in present-day Oklahoma, which is shown on the map with pathways leading to the west. The orange circles on the map likely indicate the major areas affected by the removal, hence the original Cherokee lands would be among the easternmost circles.

What was the name of the government initiative that involved contracting over four million Mexican migrant workers to come work in America?
Answer:
The Bracero Program was a massive guest worker program that allowed over four million Mexican workers to migrate and work temporarily in the United States from 1942 to 1964. Wages were specified by contract, along with other worker benefits.________________
the line is just for fun :D
Answer:
The name of the government initiative that involved contracting over four million Mexican migrant workers to come work in America was the Bracero Program.
Explanation:
The Bracero Program was a treaty signed between Mexico and the United States in August 1942 in which Mexican workers were invited to come and work in the United States to fill the lack of labor created there by World War II.
Mexican workers who worked under the Bracero program were called braceros. They mainly did heavy physical work.
About 4.5 million Braceros entered the United States between 1942 and 1964. A large proportion of these did not return to Mexico after the expiry of the temporary contract. As a result of the Immigration Reform Control Act of 1986, illegal residents living and working in the United States were given amnesty or legal status.
The program led to progress in American agriculture and led to its mechanization, but from a humanitarian point of view it is seen as a major failure. Many did not get the rights and payments they were promised, and both governments took few actions to do something about it.

Moreover, there is a thing known as "convertible preferred stock." Essentially, this is a preferred stock with the option to convert at any point after a set date into a predetermined number of common shares.
