| 1. Which of the following statements best states a theme of the
Perseus and Medusa story from Bullfinch's Mythology?
One of the central themes of the Perseus and Medusa story is hubris leading to downfall, as well as the theme of heroism and divine intervention, where Perseus overcomes obstacles with the help of the gods.

The narrative continuously reaffirms the notion that mortal comparison to the divine is perilous and that the support of the gods is essential in accomplishing heroic feats.

Which country was the last to join the Allied Powers?
Great Britain
France
United States
China
Answer:
it was the United States
Explanation:
The United States was the last of the major powers to join the Allied Powers during World War I, having maintained neutrality until 1917. The correct answer is option: United States.
The country that was the last to join the Allied Powers during World War I was the United States. While the original Allied Powers were based on the Triple Entente of France, Britain, and Russia, and later grew to include nations such as Italy and Japan, it was the United States that entered the conflict last among the major powers. Alarmed by unrestricted submarine warfare and the Zimmermann telegram, the U.S. joined the Allies in 1917, following the earlier involvement of other nations. Britain and France were founding members of the Allies, and China had already been involved in conflict against the Japanese, indicating an oppositional stance to the Central Powers' associates. In contrast, during World War I, the U.S. initially maintained a stance of neutrality until later committing to the Allied cause.

The Smoot-Hawley Tariff US Dept. of State The Smoot- Hawley was more a consequence of the Great Depression than an initial cause. But while the tariff might not have caused the Depression, it certainly did not make it any better. It provoked a storm of foreign responses and came to stand as a symbol of the "beggar-thy-neighbor" policies (policies designed to improve one's own lot at the expense of that of others) of the 1930s. Such policies contributed to a drastic decline in international trade. For example, U.S. imports from Europe declined from a 1929 high of $1,334 million to just $390 million in 1932, while U.S. exports to Europe fell from $2,341 million in 1929 to $784 million in 1932. Overall, world trade declined by some 66% between 1929 and 1934. More generally, Smoot-Hawley did nothing to foster trust and cooperation among nations during a perilous era in international relations Use the preceding reading selection to answer the following question. Which statement best describes US trade after the Smoot-Hawley act? Question 5 options: U.S. imports increased but exports declined, creating an unfavorable trade balance. U.S. exports increased but imports declined, creating a favorable trade balance. U.S. imports and exports declined, creating less world trade. U.S. imports and exports increased, creating more w

Answer: Option 3.
Explanation:
The Smooth Hawley act was the that aimed at increasing the import tariff of the United States of America. The import tariff because of this act were increased from forty percent to forty eight percent for about nine hundred goods.

Because of the import tariff, other countries also had put tariff on the goods of the United States and therefore the export of the goods of the United States also decreased along with the decrease in the imports. So the overall impact was decrease in world trade.

Question options:
All poor men were forced to fight in the war, whereas rich men were encouraged to stay at home and maintain the plantations.
It was policy that only men with slaves fought, so while poor men were generally excused, rich men made up a large portion of the army.
The South could not afford to spare anyone, so poor and rich alike fought side by side and without exemption.
Poor men could not avoid the draft, but rich men with more than 20 slaves could pay to have someone replace them on the battlefield.
Answer:
It's D for K12 users.
Poor men were forced to fight in the war, whereas rich men could pay for substitutes.
Explanation:The Civil War impacted poor men differently than it did rich men in the South.
During the war, poor men were more likely to be forced to fight in the army. They did not have the means to pay for substitutes and were generally exempt from the policy that allowed rich men to avoid military service by owning more than 20 slaves.
On the other hand, rich men were able to use their wealth to avoid fighting. They could pay substitutes to take their place on the battlefield, allowing them to continue managing their plantations and businesses.

Explanation:
In Wealth of Nations, what does Smith see as the role of government?
Final answer:
Adam Smith advocated for a limited government role in the economy, focusing on protection, enforcement of contracts, and building necessary public works. He argued against excessive intervention as it could lead to market inefficiencies, higher consumer prices, and rigged competition. Smith's ideas have significantly influenced modern economic policies and the shift towards free-market capitalism.
Explanation:
Adam Smith's seminal work, The Wealth of Nations, lays the groundwork for classical free market economic theory. In this theory, the primary role of government is to provide the conditions that allow the market to function effectively. This includes the protection of society with a military, the enforcement of contracts and property rights, and the construction of public works like roads. However, Smith was wary of government intervention in the market beyond these functions, seeing additional regulation as a means by which businesses might seek to stifle competition and rig markets. The government should refrain from granting monopolies or providing subsidies, which could lead to inefficiencies and higher prices for consumers.
Smith recognized the intrinsic link between economics and politics, understanding that businesses might leverage government influence to their advantage. Therefore, he advocated for a laissez-faire, or hands-off, approach, believing that economic prosperity comes as a result of individual self-interest and competition. The government's intervention should be minimized to prevent the distortion of the market's natural regulatory mechanisms—the "invisible hand".
The legacy of Smith's ideas influenced economic policy worldwide, resulting in reduced tariffs, the pulling back of onerous regulations, and an environment conducive to personal profit and wealth creation. His ideas helped shift nations from mercantilism to a more open and profit-seeking economic paradigm, which has had a lasting impact on modern economic practices.

#LearnwithBrainly
Final answer:
The tragedy of Simón Bolívar, as seen by the author, is intertwined with his commitment to liberate South America from Spanish control, his military achievements, and the political and societal challenges that followed. Bolívar's personal struggles and the eventual decline of his vision for a liberated and united continent underline the narrative of his life's work and its aftermath.
Explanation:
According to the author, the tragedy of Simón Bolívar lies in the complex historical circumstances and personal challenges he faced in his pursuit of liberating South America from Spanish rule. The text reflects on Bolívar's dedication to the ideals of liberty and the Enlightenment, his strategic military campaigns, and his political maneuvering, which were all indispensable in achieving independence for various South American nations.
Él became known as "The Liberator" for his central role in fighting for independence, notably with successful campaigns such as the daring crossing of the Andes Mountains to surprise Spanish forces. However, despite his accomplishments, Bolívar faced difficulties, including internal division and the challenge of building stable governance in the liberated territories. The tragedy also lies in his later years, when political turmoil and disillusionment overshadowed his earlier successes.
Bolívar's extended analysis revealed his creole bias and expressed concern that the mixed-race people of the Americas, due to the Spanish colonial system's oppression, were not prepared for the task of achieving and maintaining independence. His outlook on society and governance, influenced by the Enlightenment, was embedded with a complex understanding of the dynamics of power, freedom, and education.
