All Muslims pray facing Mecca and the pilgrimage to this city once in lifetime is actually one of the mandatory religious duties for all of them. Every Muslim has to read the Quran as well, and needs to learn Arabic in order to do so.

Examine the election of 1860, analyze why the election of Abraham Lincoln was enough to drive the south to secession.
The 1860 US presidential election is the 19th presidential election to elect the president and vice president of the United States. The elections were held on Tuesday, November 6, 1860, and won by the Republican Party led by Abraham Lincoln and his deputy Hannibal Hamlin. The electoral pool included 303 delegates. The electoral votes of the four main candidates were: Lincoln (180), John Breckenridge (72), John Bell (39) Douglas (12).
Lincoln's election led to the secession of seven southern states immediately and the Confederation was formed in February 1861, before Lincoln took office. Lincoln's other decisions resulted in the separation of four other southern states and their joining the Confederacy at the outbreak of the American Civil War.
Mainly, Abraham Lincoln won the presidential election without a single vote from the South. What made matters worse was that he was a Rebuplican. Southerners feared that Republicans would take abolition to a whole new level, so they used Lincoln's election as a reason for secession.

Which is an example of a label that is assigned to identify a generation within the American population?
A. Citizen Kane
B. Baby Boomers
C. Generation X
D. Both b and c
The correct answer is both B and C.
Baby Boomers or Baby Boom Generation are people that were born worldwide between the years 1946 and 1964. They are called so because the number of births increased dramatically during those years. It happened due to the increase in material wealth of the parents thus making having children financially affordable. It had also to do with the end of the Second World and the new achieved political stability.
Generation X or Gen X refers to the generation of people born after the Baby Boomers and before the Millennials ( 1965 -1981 ). They are mainly known for their feeling of being ignored or neglected. They have a strong sense of independence, value freedom and oppose many forms of government and authority.
How does president theodore roosevelt's comment, "speak softly and carry a big stick" relate to the president's power as a diplomat and as commander in chief?
Roosevelt revolutionized the U.S. Presidency. Many credit him with establishing the modern presidency. Speaking softly and carrying a big stick meant that American power was to be respected in domestic and international contexts. As president, he was a negotiator and peace maker as demonstrated in his successful negotiation of the Russo-Japanese War (1905), for which he won the Nobel Peace Prize. He also played an important role in Progressive Era Reforms such as the Pure Food and Drug Act.
6. Write a short essay explaining the methods through which citizens can participate in their government in the United States. Be sure to explain why voting and other forms of political participation are important to the U.S. Government. Finally, analyze how citizens can use these methods to bring about positive changes in their communities.
People may participate in politics in many ways. They can write their Representative or Senator, or work in for a candidate or political party. They can make presentations to their local school board or city council, or call the police to complain about the neighbor's dog. Partly because of our federalist system, people have many opportunities to participate in our democracy on federal, state, and local levels. Some forms of participation are more common than others and some citizens participate more than others, but almost everyone has a voice in government.
Answer:
In the United States, there are no processes of citizen initiatives at the federal level, but 27 of the 50 states have some kind of direct democracy system (changing the regulation and scope of one state to another). At the local level, approximately half of the cities have a system of binding citizen initiatives.
Between 1904 and 2000 almost 2,000 referendums initiated by the citizenship were convened. In 1996, in the states with citizens' initiative mechanisms, 96 referendums were held, against the more than 14,000 laws and resolutions passed by the representatives of those states.

The most powerful Catholic ruling family in the 1600s was the:
a. Tudors
b. Hapsburgs
c. Hohenzollerns
d. Bourbons
The Habsburgs, 100%. The Tudors weren't Catholic, and famously so. The Hohenzollerns and Bourbons never came close the the Holy Roman Empire in power at its pique. The Hohenzollerns were later as well, although I confess I am not quite as learned on their history. Had the Tudors been Catholic, it might be a contest, as Elizabethan England was certainly a height of the British Empire.
Which describes the type of buying and selling that takes place within a country?
In the 1960s, the United States and the Soviet Union were indirectly involved in a war in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. What type of war was it? A. ethnic conflict B. proxy war C. guerilla war D. nonviolent protest
The crisis in the Congo was a period of political turmoil and conflict in the Republic of the Congo (today the Democratic Republic of the Congo) between 1960 and 1965. The crisis began after Congo became independent from Belgium and ended, unofficially, when the whole country was placed under the rule of Josef-Desire Mobut.
By establishing a series of civil wars, the crisis in Congo was also a proxy conflict in a cold war, in which the Soviet Union and the United States supported opposing factions. About 100,000 people are believed to have been killed during the crisis.
Proxy war is an armed conflict between the two opposing sides, even states can be, with these parties acting on behalf of others who are not directly involved in hostilities.
The right answer is B. proxy war

How did the founding fathers ensure that the people would be accurately represented in the House of Representatives? A. They decided to have a special election to appoint representatives. B. Every 20 years they would amend the Constitution. C. Every ten years the government is required to conduct a census to determine population changes in congressional districts. D. Senators measure the size of the states' largest cities and decided on the number of representatives.
C. Every ten years the government is required to conduct a census to determine population changes in congressional districts.
Article 1 Section II talks about how a census (every 10 years) was to determine how many seats a state was entitled to. At first, no thought was given to gerrymandering which is the act of setting up distracts that would favor the governing party in power. This problem was partly addressed by limiting the number of congressmen to 435 and letting the census determine how the population would divy up how many congressmen each state was allowed. I cannot find how that works or whether or not the constitution was amended to bring the 435 about. It can be found in the legislation of 1929.

Describe the methods used to disfranchise African American voters in the early 1900s.
History help ASAP :)
Thanks so much ! xo
Methods such as literacy tests and poll taxes were used to disenfranchise African American voters in the early 1900s, restricting the ability of African Americans to exercise voting rights.
Poll taxes means you have to pay a tax before allowed to vote. That's a way of preventing poor persons (like blacks in the South) from voting.
Literacy tests would require persons to pass certain standards of reading and writing in order to qualify for voting. These tests were aimed at blacks, who had not had access to the same education as whites.
The black community had less access to education than whites even after slavery was ended; thus their literacy rates were lower. They also experienced much poverty because of prejudice against them in the economic system of the country, so poll taxes could keep them from going to the polls to vote.
States also employed "grandfather clauses," which were exemptions granted by some states to those whose forefathers ("grandfathers") had full voting rights prior to the Civil War. That way, if there were poor or illiterate whites, they could vote freely while blacks (whose ancestors had been slaves) were subjected to the laws restricting their voting ability.
These sorts of restrictions against black voters prompted much of the activism of the civil rights movement that began in the middle of the 20th century.

American determination to survive at Valley Forge convince the British to surrender. C. After the hardships of Valley Forge, the American Army was Stronger, prouder, and better trained. D. During the winter at Valley Forge, American forces took control over Philadelphia and New York.
The correct answer is c.
After the Battle of the Black Hills, General George Washington came up with the idea of moving his camp to a place that would allow him to survive the winter. So he chose Valley Forge, Pennsylvania. This place was close to the British, which allowed them to watch and allowed to get food in Pennsylvania.
During the stay in Valley Forge many soldiers died due to diseases and infections. Their clothes were not adequate to survive the winter and they were very badly fed. This catastrophe was solved with the arrival of the women and the children of the soldiers, since they were in charge of caring for them, curing them, washing and fixing their clothes, etc.
The soldiers in the camp received intense military training and the support of their families. This allowed the American Army to get out of there stronger, prouder and better trained.

What was Abraham Lincoln’s message in the Gettysburg Address?
The Civil War was a true test of patriotism.
Both democracy and the United States would last.
The world would probably not remember what happened at Gettysburg.
It had been a long time since the Declaration of Independence.
The answer is:
Abraham Lincoln's message in the Gettysburg Address was that both democracy and the United States would last by saying in part that:
"... - that this nation under God, shall have a new birth of freedom - and that government of the people, for the people, shall not perish from earth."
The correct answer is: "The world would probably not remember what happened at Gettysburg."
Everett's speech had 13,609 words and lasted two hours. In contrast, Lincoln's brief words summed up the war in two or three minutes, in ten sentences, and in less than 300 words.
Lincoln's few selected words resonated throughout the nation and throughout history, challenging Lincoln's own prediction that "the world will notice little, not much time will remember what we say here."
