How many world war 2 soldiers are buried in the tomb of the unknowns
Answer: There are 2 unknown soldiers that are buried in the Unknown tombs, from World War 2 and Korea. Nobody knows for sure which 2 World War 2 soldiers are buried in the Unknown tombs in Arlington National Cemetery.
The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier or the Tomb of the Unknowns is a monument dedicated to deceased U.S. service members whose remains have not been identified. It is located in Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia, United States of America.
The World War I "Unknown" is a recipient of the Medal of Honor, the Victoria Cross, and several other foreign nations' highest service awards. The U.S. Unknowns who were interred are also recipients of the Medal of Honor, presented by U.S. Presidents who presided over their funerals.The monument has no officially designated name.
Explanation: On March 4, 1921, the United States Congress approved the burial of an unidentified American serviceman from World War I in the plaza of the new Memorial Amphitheater. On November 11, 1921, the unknown soldier brought back from France was interred below a three-level marble tomb.
The bottom two levels are six marble sections each and the top at least nine blocks with a rectangular opening in the center of each level through which the unknown remains were placed through the tomb and into the ground below. A stone, rather than marble, slab covers the rectangular opening.
Since 1921 the intent was to place a superstructure on top of the Tomb, but it was not until July 3, 1926, that Congress authorized the completion of the Tomb and the expenditure of $50,000 (with a completed cost of $48,000). A design competition was held and won by architect Lorimer Rich and sculptor Thomas Hudson Jones.
Quarrying the Yule marble (3.9 miles south of Marble, Colorado by the Vermont Marble Company) was a one-year process beginning in 1930. The cap was quarried on the first attempt but the base required three tries. The large middle block also required three tries. In late January 1931, the 56 ton middle block was lifted out of the quarry. The quarrying involved 75 men. When the block was separated from the mountain inside the quarry it weighed 124 tons. A wire saw was then brought into the quarry to cut the block down to 56 tons.
On February 3, the block reached the marble mill site (in the town of Marble) after a four-day trip from the quarry. Here it was crated, then shipped to Vermont on February 8. The block was sawn to final size in West Rutland, Vermont, and fabricated by craftsmen in Proctor, Vermont, before it was shipped by train to Arlington National Cemetery, Virginia.[8] By September, all 7 blocks were on the grounds of the Tomb site, at Arlington.
Assembly began in September 1931. An imperfection was found in the base, requiring three more quarryings. By the end of December 1931, the assembly was completed. Finishing work followed with the carvings on the die block by the Piccirilli Brothers under the direction of the sculptor Thomas Jones. (The brothers also carved the Lincoln statue for the Lincoln Memorial). The Tomb was completed without formal ceremony on April 9, 1932.
The Tomb was placed at the head of the grave of the World War I Unknown. West of this grave are the crypts of Unknowns from World War II (south) and Korea (north). Between the two lies a crypt that once contained an Unknown from Vietnam (middle). His remains were positively identified in 1998 through DNA testing as First Lieutenant Michael Blassie, United States Air Force and were removed. Those three graves are marked with white marble slabs flush with the plaza.
The Tomb has a flat-faced form and is relieved at the corners and along the sides by neo-classical pilasters set into the surface with objects and inscription carved into the sides. The 1931 symbolism of the objects on the north, south and east sides changed over time.
There were almost 300 unknown tombs in Arlington National Cemetery. They include the following from World War 2 and Korea:
On August 3, 1956, President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed a bill to select and pay tribute to the Unknowns of World War II and the Korean War. The selection ceremonies and the interment of these Unknowns took place in 1958. The World War II Unknown was selected from remains exhumed from cemeteries in Europe, Africa, Hawaii, and the Philippines.
There are exactly 2 unknown tombs from World War 2, in the Arlington National Cemetery. Two Unknowns from World War II, one from the European Theater and one from the Pacific Theater, were placed in identical caskets and taken aboard the USS Canberra, a guided-missile cruiser resting off the Virginia Capes. Navy Hospital Corpsman 1st Class William R. Charette, then the U.S. Navy's only active-duty Medal of Honor recipient who was an enlisted man, selected the World War II Unknown. The remaining casket received a solemn burial at sea.
The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier contains one World War II soldier, representing all unidentified American soldiers from that conflict.
The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier was initially established after World War I to honor the unidentified remains of a soldier who died in that war. After World War II, a similar ceremony was held, and the remains of an unidentified soldier from that conflict were interred in the tomb on May 30, 1958. The soldier represents all the missing and unknown service members who fought and died in World War II. Similarly, unknown soldiers from the Korean War and the Vietnam War were later added to the site to honor those who remain unidentified from those conflicts. The tomb stands as a symbol of the sacrifices made by all service members who have defended their country, known and unknown."

The Cuban Missile Crisis was something that terrified the whole world. During 1962, from October 16 to October 28, there was such a tensions between the US and the Soviet Union that the situation came that it could escalate to a new world war. The Cuban Missile Crisis was a result of the US finding out that the Soviets actually had missiles on the island, directed toward them, and right next door to them. This caused panic in the US, both in the military and at the public, and the country was all ready for a war at any moment.

The ussr abandoned communism in order to achieve economic growth. how did china's path compare to that of the ussr, and what problems arose within china as a result of the path it took? your answer:
In many ways, the USSR and China were the same or similar during the Cold War period, as both had slowly growing economies, old and not very efficient industry, bad economic planning, and trying to be self-sustaining. The USSR fell apart, and the country tried to become democracy and to have a market economy. That actually put the country in an even worse situation, as the economy was going down instead of up, and the country faced bankruptcy. Only after Putin got to power he managed to slowly turn things around and to start moving the country in the right direction economically, though socially and politically the country is still strongly hold by the power of one. China on the other hand have numerous problems with its terrible economic policies, which resulted in a protest. The Communist Party though was not very happy about it and as always used violence to sort out the problem. China started to change though with Deng Xiaoping, often considered as one of the best economist the world had ever seen. He managed to reform the Chinese economy, abandon the self-sustaining system, open up the economy gradually to the world, invite foreign investments, while still keeping control of all the important Chinese resources. This led to an economic boom in China, and country had such a quickly growing economy that in only two decades it managed to became the second largest economy in the world, getting very close to the first one of the US. The country is still run by the Communist Party and the people ares till very restricted, but the life standard has improved significantly and the country has modernized and constantly moves in an upward trajectory.

Who is called the Father of Humanism because he led the way in reviv-ing interest and study in classical literature?
Francesco Petrarca was an Italian poet and humanist, whose work gave rise to a literary current (called Petrarchism) that influenced important European authors especially from the sixteenth century, who tried to create poems such as those Petrarch wrote in his Il Canzoniere (Songbook) dedicated to Laura, his muse.
Petrarch devoted almost all his life to the study of the Greco-Latin authors, defended and promoted the classical culture and language at a time when only the clergy wrote in Latin, so he brought this language to the university academic currents.
In addition, with his humanistic conception, he tried to harmonize the Greco-Roman legacy with the ideas of Christianity and dedicated much of his time and fortune to recovering from the old monasteries and libraries the greatest possible number of ancient manuscripts. In fact, his compositions were a literary revolution in Italy, to the point that the author, in addition to being recognized as the father of Humanism, is also granted the modern lyric.

excerpt from One of Ours
by Willa Cather
1 THE CIRCUS was on Saturday. The next morning Claude was standing at his dresser, shaving. His
beard was already strong, a shade darker than his hair and not so red as his skin. His eyebrows
and long lashes were a pale corn-colour—made his blue eyes seem lighter than they were, and,
he thought, gave a look of shyness and weakness to the upper part of his face. He was exactly
the sort of looking boy he didn’t want to be. He especially hated his head,—so big that he had
trouble in buying his hats, and uncompromisingly square in shape; a perfect block-head. His
name was another source of humiliation. Claude: it was a “chump” name, like Elmer and Roy;
a hayseed name trying to be fine. In country schools there was always a red-headed, wartyhanded,
runny-nosed little boy who was called Claude. His good physique he took for granted;
smooth, muscular arms and legs, and strong shoulders, a farmer boy might be supposed to have.
Unfortunately he had none of his father’s physical repose, and his strength often asserted itself
inharmoniously. The storms that went on in his mind sometimes made him rise, or sit down, or
lift something, more violently than there was any apparent reason for his doing.
2 The household slept late on Sunday morning; even Mahailey did not get up until seven. The
general signal for breakfast was the smell of doughnuts frying. This morning Ralph rolled out of
bed at the last minute and callously put on his clean underwear without taking a bath. This cost
him not one regret, though he took time to polish his new oxblood shoes tenderly with a pocket
handkerchief. He reached the table when all the others were half through breakfast, and made
his peace by genially asking his mother if she didn’t want him to drive her to church in the car.
3 “I’d like to go if I can get the work done in time,” she said, doubtfully glancing at the clock.
4 “Can’t Mahailey tend to things for you this morning?”
5 Mrs. Wheeler hesitated. “Everything but the separator, she can. But she can’t fit all the parts
together. It’s a good deal of work, you know.”
6 “Now, Mother,” said Ralph good-humouredly, as he emptied the syrup pitcher over his cakes,
“you’re prejudiced. Nobody ever thinks of skimming milk now-a-days. Every up-to-date farmer
uses a separator.”
7 Mrs. Wheeler’s pale eyes twinkled. “Mahailey and I will never be quite up-to-date, Ralph. We’re
old-fashioned, and I don’t know but you’d better let us be. I could see the advantage of a
separator if we milked half-a-dozen cows. It’s a very ingenious machine. But it’s a great deal
more work to scald it and fit it together than it was to take care of the milk in the old way.”
8 “It won’t be when you get used to it,” Ralph assured her. He was the chief mechanic of the
Wheeler farm, and when the farm implements and the automobiles did not give him enough
to do, he went to town and bought machines for the house. As soon as Mahailey got used to
a washing-machine or a churn, Ralph, to keep up with the bristling march of invention, brought
home a still newer one. The mechanical dish-washer she had never been able to use, and patent
flat-irons and oil-stoves drove her wild.
9 Claude told his mother to go upstairs and dress; he would scald the separator while Ralph got
the car ready. He was still working at it when his brother came in from the garage to wash his
hands.
10 “You really oughtn’t to load mother up with things like this, Ralph,” he exclaimed fretfully. “Did
you ever try washing this . . . thing yourself?”
11 “Of course I have. If Mrs. Dawson can manage it, I should think mother could.”
12 “Mrs. Dawson is a younger woman. Anyhow, there’s no point in trying to make machinists of
Mahailey and mother.”
13 Ralph lifted his eyebrows to excuse Claude’s bluntness. “See here,” he said persuasively, “don’t
you go encouraging her into thinking she can’t change her ways. Mother’s entitled to all the
labour-saving devices we can get her.”
14 Claude rattled the thirty-odd graduated metal funnels which he was trying to fit together in their
proper sequence. “Well, if this is labour-saving—”
15 The younger boy giggled and ran upstairs for his panama hat. He never quarrelled. Mrs. Wheeler
sometimes said it was wonderful, how much Ralph would take from Claude.
16 After Ralph and his mother had gone off in the car, Mr. Wheeler drove to see his German
neighbour, Gus Yoeder, who had just bought a blooded bull. Dan and Jerry were pitching
horseshoes down behind the barn. Claude told Mahailey he was going to the cellar to put up the
swinging shelf she had been wanting, so that the rats couldn’t get at her vegetables.
17 “Thank you, Mr. Claude. I don’t know what does make the rats so bad. The cats catches one
most every day, too.”
18 “I guess they come up from the barn. I’ve got a nice wide board down at the garage for your
shelf.”

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.

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.
