It was meant to prevent participation in future wars like the French Indian war and similar.

How did the Renaissance contribute to the european age of exploration

Answers

The Renaissance contributed to the European Age of Exploration because it helped bring to the front stage the newer "technology" that was needed to adequately explore the world. The creation of the compass, the creation of better maps as they sailed, better ships were all major influences of the Age of Exploration.
The Renaissance was embodied with ideas of greatness, individual achievement, and the desire to seek understanding and knowledge for the sake of knowledge. The Rennaissance was also possible by well funded patrons that could afford to make their artistic and intellectual "renaissance" ideas come to fruition.

The Age of Exploration was a desire for several things: 1. A desire for wealth. This is a continuation of a concept that was flourishing during the renaissance. 2. A desire for understanding. People sought out exploration for glory, the simple joy of being able to say I was the first one to discover something! This strive for knowledge and understanding is directly aligned to what was considered important during the Renaissance.
3. Spreading Religion. Although not directly related to the ideologies surrounding the Renaissance, it would have been made possible through Renaissance technology, the Printing Press. 
And 4. Technology that aspired creating during the Renaissance is what made these trans-atlantic journeys possible.

(C) the Midwest
(D)

Answers

 the correct answer is d i think

The correct option is D

Towards the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, the United States managed to round off the territory from the small Atlantic strip to the peaceful façade, by conquering the immense territories of the Southwest. Before the formidable pressure, fomented by the federal government and turned into an epic that immortalized the Hollywood industry with the legendary Far-West, of farmers, planters, merchants, adventurers, European immigrants and missionaries, the mythical "Frontera", considered the territory Savage par excellence, it became a powerful factor in the expansion of capitalism. However, the conquest of the West served not only to increase agricultural, livestock and mining space (gold rush in California), and to promote the demographic development, but also to forge the myths from which the new nation has been nurtured until today. American

In this process, industrial production went from less than 2,000 million dollars per year to more than 13,000, in the same way the number of employees in industry, mining, construction and services went from less than 4 million people up to 18 million. The factors that determined industrialization were the abundance of natural resources, the growth of the population, the accumulation of capital and foreign investment, immigration also provided a broad and cheap labor force. During this period, the consolidation of companies into large-scale units became evident. This consolidation was based largely on the birth of the trust that were agreements of the shareholders of different companies of a certain economic sector to unify the direction and management of the same and reducing competition.

What is the Senate’s only defense to a filibuster?

Answers

invoking cloture is the answer.

Answer:

To invoke cloture.

Explanation:

The filibuster is a political tactic or procedure employed by members of the Senate, wherein one or more members intentionally give long and often irrelevant speeches to debate a proposed piece of legislation, in order to delay or prevent the chamber from voting on a bill, an amendment, or motion,

When this happens, the Senate’s only defense to a filibuster is to invoke cloture, which is the only formal procedure to end a filibuster. However, only if three-fifths of the Senators vote in the affirmative, cloture is invoked.

Afterward, the Senate sets a series of conditions and constraints to end the debate such as only 30-Hour Time Cap to consider the bill, amendment or motion in question, and 1-hour time cap of debate per senator.

B. it can nullify an unconstitutional law, which means that americans will no longer have to follow it. C. it can disband congress, which forces americans to elect new congresspersons and senators. D. it can impeach the president, thereby changing the leadership of the nation

Answers

The Answer is B.  Only the Legislative Branch can create amendments: the Court decides if the amendment is constitutional/fair.  The Supreme Court cannot disband Congress, either.  Nor can it impeach any president: only the legislative houses can do such a thing.

The supreme court of the United States has the constitutional power to nullify any unconstitutional law, which means that Americans will no longer have to follow it. Therefore, the correct answer is B.

Although the right to pass a law is vested on Congress, however, the Supreme Court of the United States has the power to nullify any law if it violates the constitution of the United States.

Further Explanation

The power given to the Supreme Court by the constitution to set aside any law is meant to satisfy the principle of check and balances and also to ensure that the fundamental human rights of the people are well protected.

The principle of checks and balances was inserted in the constitution to ensure that a branch of government does not have power over another; therefore the government is divided into three branches which include the legislative, judicial and the executive.

All the branches of government are designed in a way that they have the power to check each other.

The Supreme Court of the United States was created with the passage of the judiciary acts of 1789 by congress and it was made up of six justices at the time. The Supreme Court is the highest court in the country

After the days of Moses and Joshua, judges ruled over the nation of Israel. After the judges, elders of Israel came to Samuel wanting a king. Why did God say that they were rejecting Him by asking for a king to rule over them?

Answers

because God ruled over Israel and watched over them listening to them when they needed help and now the people reject him as their king and want to replace him with a man for a king

Final answer:

The Israelites asked for a king to lead them in battle and secure dominance, thus rejecting God's rule as conveyed by Samuel. This demand signaled a shift from divine theocracy to human monarchy, accompanied by the prophecy of oppression under a worldly king. The request for a king and the subsequent anointing of Saul marked a significant evolution in Israelite history and governance.

Explanation:

The elders of Israel asked Samuel for a king to rule them, for reasons beyond mere monarchic administration. They were discouraged by the corruption of Samuel's sons, who were judges at the time, and desired a king like other nations to lead them to conquest and to fight their battles, particularly against their powerful enemy, the Philistines. In this context, God articulated through the prophet Samuel that by asking for a worldly king, the Israelites were rejecting His theocratic rule. The desire for a monarch indicated a shift from trusting in God's providence and leadership to relying on human governance and military might.

Historically, the nation of Israel was ruled by Judges for about 330 years following the death of Joshua. This system of governance was marked by turbulence and conquest, with the land split into tribally governed territories, each acting relatively independently. Samuel's anointment of Saul and Israel's subsequent transition to a monarchy indicated their rejection of God's direct kingship, an offense which was prophesied to lead them to greater oppression, including the burdens associated with a king's army, taxes, and forced labor.

However, this demand for a monarchy was also seen as a natural evolution of the Jewish theocracy, with prophets foreseeing a time when God would establish His reign through a Messianic figure, a vision that contrasted with the immediate and worldly aims of a human king. Ultimately, the narrative serves to highlight a turning point in Israelite history and the tension between divine rule and human rulership.
