Venture Smith. Venture Smith (Birth name: Broteer) (c. 1729 – 1805) was captured when he was a 6 and a half-year-old boy in West Africa and was taken to Anomabo on the Gold Coast (today Ghana) to be sold as a slave. As an adult in Rhode Island (Connecticut), he purchased his freedom and that of his family.

Answer:

Robertson Mumford purchased his slave for four gallons of rum and a piece of calico cloth.

Explanation:

Venture Smith was held captive at the age of six and a half in West Africa in 1739. He was then taken to Ghana and was bought by Robertson Mumford, who paid four gallons of rum and some calico cloth for him.  His birth name was Broteer Furro (1729-1805). He spent his life in Rhode Island, Connecticut, Mumford's home, where he finally bought his freedom. His autobiography, "A Narrative of the Life and Adventures of Venture, a Native of Africa: But Resident above Sixty Years in the United States of America, Related by Himself" depicts the African American voice of the slave.

Role conflict involves competing demands between different roles, while role strain arises from conflicting expectations within a single role.

Role strain, however, happens when a person struggles to meet conflicting demands within a single role, such as a manager needing to be both strict and supportive. The key difference is that role conflict involves tension between different roles, while role strain involves tension within one role. Both create stress, but the sources of pressure differ.

Role conflict typically arises when a person holds multiple roles, such as being both a parent and an employee, and the responsibilities of these roles clash. For example, a person may struggle to meet work deadlines while also needing to attend a child’s school event, creating conflict between the roles of employee and parent.

In the 1600's Imperialism was based around colonization in the Americas and establishing trade in the east.  During this period the Americas were being colonized intensely by the Europeans that were racing to gain as much land and prestige as possible.  In the east, however, the main goal was to reach the Spice Islands (modern day Indonesia) and establish trade routes for the spices the Europeans desperately craved. Comparatively, in the 1900's Imperialism consisted of taking up land in places such as India, Africa, and Southeast Asia.  This was done in a "mission to civilize" meaning it was less about economics and now a more political and racial element were used to justify European conquest.

The major change in imperialism between the 1600 and the 1900 was the shift from dominance in trade and business relationships (ports of call, maritime dominance, shipping and trading) to a physical presence by colonial powers in Asia and Africa. The physical occupation of territory by European powers led to aggressive efforts to reshape social, political, cultural and economic institutions in countries colonized by them

The monsoon and rivers produced favorable conditions for agriculture. This situation allowed the Harappan to support a larger population. Agriculture was the mainstay of many ancient societies and water sources were essential.

The main goal of both the Granger and Populist movements was to improve the economic conditions for farmers and the working class.

The main goal of both the Granger and Populist movements was to improve the economic conditions for farmers and the working class. They sought to address the hardships faced by farmers, such as overproduction, high tariffs, and debt, and advocated for policies such as a graduated income tax, direct election of U.S. Senators, and loan programs to balance the costs of food. Additionally, the Populist Party called for unlimited coinage of silver to increase the wealth of farmers and the working class.

“The tough sod discouraged farming, and the plains animals were too fleet of foot to provide a dependable supply of food for large numbers of pedestrians. Then the horse gave the Indian the speed and stamina needed to take advantage of the opportunity to harvest this immense quantity of food represented by the buffalo herds of North America and the herds of wild cattle that propagated so rapidly in the grasslands of both Americas. The Indians stopped farming; the work was hard, boring, and unrewarding, compared to the nomadic life.”

Answer:

France

Explanation:

The French Revolution is the name given to the revolutionary cycle that took place in France between 1789 and 1799 that marked the end of monarchical absolutism in that country. This revolution, in addition to its bourgeois character, had a large popular participation and reached a high degree of radicalism, since the situation of the French people was precarious due to the crisis facing the country.

The French Revolution was a milestone in the history of humanity because it inaugurated a process that led to the universalization of social rights and individual freedoms from the Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen. This revolution also paved the way for the consolidation of a republican system based on popular representation, today called representative democracy. The French Revolution was only possible thanks to the popularization of the ideals of the Enlightenment.

France is the country that underwent a significant revolution in the early 19th century, overthrowing its monarchy and establishing the First French Republic based on Enlightenment principles.

The country that experienced a revolution that overthrew its monarchy and replaced it with a representative form of government during the early 19th century was France. The French Revolution began in 1789 and led to the removal of the monarchy, initiating a period of reform and radical change.

The revolution paved the way for the establishment of the First French Republic, where Enlightenment ideals such as liberty, equality, and fraternity were central to the new government's philosophy. Although the rise of Napoleon would later shift the political landscape, the initial changes brought about by the revolution drastically altered the traditional monarchy-based governance model. Following the French example, the 1848 Revolutions across Europe also attempted to establish republics and more democratic forms of government, although with varying degrees of success.

The correct answer is B) They lead executive departments.

The main function of the cabinet members is to supervise the executive departments and make a detailed report to Congress. They also watch the independent agencies and make a report to the president. And finally what they do as well is to make a report to the president of the federal departments.

The biggest difference between the Watergate Scandal and the Iran-Contra Affair is that the Watergate scandal was an internal politics problem, while the Iran-Contra Affair was a foreign politics problem.  Both scandals were exposed by the media.

In the Watergate scandal, president Nixon was directly  involved and exposed by the media as head of a group perpetrating illegal activities while it was never proved that President Reagan was directly related with the illegal aid to Contras and Iranian terrorist groups. So President Nixon was directly involved in the scandal.  

The Watergate scandal was worse in my opinion because it is more famous and it was the only presidential impeachment in U.S. history, and that undermined the public image of american democracy.    

While both the Watergate Scandal and the Iran-Contra Affair involved abuses of power and illegal activities, the Watergate Scandal, with Nixon's direct involvement in the cover-up and its profound impact on public trust in government, was more detrimental to the country.

The Iran-Contra Affair and the Watergate Scandal were two major political scandals in the United States that involved illicit actions and abuses of power. But Nixon's role in the cover-up following the Democratic National Committee headquarters break-in and the ensuing Watergate scandal had a more significant effect on the nation.

Nixon's resignation as a result of his direct involvement in the obstruction of justice damaged public confidence in governmental institutions and brought about long-lasting reforms and cultural shifts in politics. The Watergate Scandal had a worse impact on the nation than the Nixon scandal did, despite the fact that the Iran-Contra Affair raised concerns about executive power and accountability during the Reagan administration. The consequences of the scandal were less severe, and President Reagan was not as directly involved in illegal activities as President Nixon was..

The poverty of the inhabitants of a country has a primary impact in the country itself and also a secondary impact in other countries, especially those that are geographically closer and those that have a greater commercial relationship.

As a country has lower purchasing power, it will decrease the imports of goods and services offered by other countries.

Inhabitants of poorer countries tend to migrate to countries with higher incomes and consequently greater opportunities. This is why demographic changes can occur in both nations.

When a nation's economy occurs unexpectedly it can affect financial assets of countries that have particularities in common with it because financial markets often interpret that shared variables will also be a common cause of decline for them.

Because Constantinople knew how to take advantage of its privileged geographical situation, which made the city an obligatory passage for caravans that brought East and West into contact. Therefore, trade was undoubtedly the great basis of the Byzantine economy.

Until 330 it was called Byzantium, and then, until 1453, Constantinople. Its current name, İstanbul, was given on 28 March 1930. Istanbul was the capital of the Eastern Roman Empire and the Ottoman Empire.

Constantinople became the center of the Byzantine Empire due to its strategic eastward location, its significance in East/West trade, and its role in managing political and demographic shifts within the empire.

Constantinople became the center of the Byzantine Empire due to several strategic factors. Its easternward location was advantageous towards the shift in focus of the Roman Empire, particularly because of its proximity to important trade routes and the sites of Roman military campaigns. This strategic location made the city a hub for both trade and travel, connecting it to Western Europe, the Near East, and the Balkans.

Secondly, Constantinople lay at the heart of East/West trade, symbolizing a significant prize in terms of economic potential and political power. Consequently, its conquest sent a clear message regarding the shift in power from Rome to the East.

Last but not least, the Byzantine Empire had to grapple with the migration of different groups while at the same time maintaining a growing Christian population. With its new capital in Constantinople, the Byzantine Empire managed to balance the political tensions, making the city a pivotal center for the empire.

As I recall it was rolled-steel girders riveted together, probably from shipbuilding, together with steam-powered winches and an abundance of cheap steel. As opposed to European cathedrals erected with animal-powered winches and with more expensive forged iron bracing (one of the big cathedrals has a kind or iron corset to keep the walls from bursting outwards).

Advancements in steel girder technology, the invention of the electric elevator, and the development of underground railways made the construction of skyscrapers practical. Later, prefabrication and computer-aided manufacturing techniques improved the process, ensuring skyscrapers could meet modern demands and reach new heights.

The evolution of skyscrapers was greatly propelled by advancements in technology toward the end of the 19th century. Key innovations included the development of steel girders and the electric elevator. Strong and durable steel girders allowed for the construction of significantly taller structures beyond the traditional 10 to 12-story brick buildings. The invention of the passenger and freight elevators, particularly the electric elevator in 1889 by the Otis Elevator Company, was vital in making tall buildings practical. Before elevators, scaling tall buildings was impractical, but with the ability to move people and goods swiftly and safely between floors, building upward became an attractive proposition.

Another technological feat was the development of underground railways in cities like Boston and New York. These systems enabled further expansion and allowed cities to accommodate the growth of automobiles. Skyscrapers then began to represent both a solution to the lack of space in urban centers and a symbol of prestige for the businesses that occupied them. The iconic Home Insurance Building in Chicago, completed in 1885, is considered the first modern skyscraper and kicked off the trend of building vertically as a response to the limited geographical space and high real estate costs.

As we moved into the new millennium, technology continued to evolve, with prefabrication and computer-aided manufacturing revolutionizing construction. The use of robotics in fabricating building components ensures precision and reduces errors, while testing for earthquake and wind stability, and fire prevention is now an integral part of the construction process. These advancements have allowed skyscrapers to reach new heights and accommodate the needs of the growing urban populace.

The combination of these technological advances has not only made the construction of skyscrapers practical but has also reshaped the architectural landscape of cities across the world, symbolizing economic power and innovation.

The Nullification Crisis was a political dispute between South Carolina and the United States Federal government. The matter of dispute was the imposition of the famously known "tariff of abominations", that imposed a tax on 38% of all imported goods. South Carolina alleged that the tariff was very harmful to the development of the economy of the southern states and declared it unconstitutional.

The federal government saw this as a pretext for fomenting disunion and wanting to put the issue of slavery under negotiation.

On the other hand, the state other southern states, including Georgia, adopted a more conservative position and labeled South Carolina's position as a revolutionary act and highly precipitated.

Final answer:

The Nullification Crisis highlights the tension between state and federal power, with South Carolina taking drastic measures against federal tariffs through an Ordinance of Nullification, in contrast to Georgia's less confrontational stance.

Explanation:

The Nullification Crisis serves as an example of the early disputes between state and federal authority, particularly over the issue of tariffs, which were perceived differently by South Carolina and Georgia. While both states were part of the southern region that generally opposed the tariffs due to their agricultural economy's reliance on the export of goods, South Carolina took a more radical approach by passing an Ordinance of Nullification in 1832, declaring the federal tariffs of 1828 and 1832 null and void within its borders. This led to a standoff with the federal government, culminating in the Force Bill that authorized the use of military against South Carolina should it resist the tariffs. Meanwhile, Georgia, though sharing the economic grievances against the tariffs, did not go as far as to enact a formal nullification, aligning more closely with the other southern states in opposition without directly challenging federal authority to the point of a crisis. South Carolina's actions and the resultant crisis underscore the tensions between state sovereignty and federal authority, a prelude to the larger conflict that would engulf the nation in the Civil War.

The correcte answer is: "The Catholic Church unified different kingdoms of Europe under the umbrella of the Church."

The Church in the Middle Ages was a very powerful institution since it was a deeply religious age. That is why the Catholic Church had a great influence on society and, although there were other creeds, in the 11th century Europe was largely Christian.

Beyond the borders that separated the European kingdoms a new concept of union was born: Christianity.

A thousand years ago almost all of Western Europe began to be called Christianity, because all its kingdoms accepted the authority of the Pope and all its inhabitants professed Christianity. All Christian territories were considered a single empire and their most important figures were the Pope and the emperor. The Church was then very powerful; the bishops and abbots had large tracts of land; the clergy, who were almost the only cultured people, were in charge of educating the young, helping the poor and being the chief advisors of the kings.

Victory Gardens were pushed by the American government during World War II to build and foster community spirit during the time of war but even more importantly, to make the average person feel like they were involved in the war and part of the war effort.

Victory gardens were established in WWI and WWII in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada and Australia. These fruit and herb gardens were maintained in public parks  and private residences. These gardens highlighted the contributions civilians could make to the war effort.

The framers wanted to have majority rule because it is the basic principle of democracy.

Democracy is a system where people vote to elect their governors, and the majority votes win, in democracy the majority of people have the power to decide which candidate wins. So without majority rule there would not be democracy.

The framers also wanted to protect the rights of the minority to prevent that a majority rule would lead to abuse of power and oppress the minority. The Bill of Rights written by James Madison protects the minority rights in the Constitution, so the majority has to respect those basic rights when passing laws and making decisions and the minority has the power to someday become the majority, making democracy work.

The first is that the Executive branch has a term limit associated with it. This ensures that no one Chief Executive can amass too much power or rule for too long.

The second is America's ingenious system of checks and balances which works to ensure that there are three co-equal branches of government instead of one lead branch and two subservient branches of government.

Final answer:

The option that was NOT a basic principle of the English Bill of Rights is that nobles and church leaders had certain rights that the king could not take away. The English Bill of Rights did not exclusively grant certain rights that the king could not take away to nobles and church leaders, but rather established rights for all English subjects and set the stage for a constitutional monarchy.

Explanation:

The option that was NOT a basic principle of the English Bill of Rights is 'Nobles and church leaders had certain rights that the king could not take away.'

The English Bill of Rights of 1689 was a groundbreaking document that followed the Glorious Revolution when Parliament removed King James II and offered the throne to William and Mary. It established a constitutional monarchy and set forth many rights for English subjects, which were not exclusive to nobles and church leaders. Among the key provisions were Parliament's independence from the monarchy, certain rights for English subjects, including trial by jury and habeas corpus, and it required the Crown to obtain Parliament's approval for raising taxes. Furthermore, the document established the foundation for modern democratic principles such as free elections and due process of law, influences that would later be seen in the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights.

The answer is C) West Germany; East Germany

Answer:

The correct answer is C. West Germany and East Germany should appear in the blank areas.

Explanation:

-West Germany was the common name given to the Federal Republic of Germany, which corresponded between 1949 and 1990 to the western part of Germany. The political capital of this state had been installed in Bonn, on the banks of the Rhine, while the West Berlin sector of the former capital of the Reich enjoyed a special political status.

The current Germany resulting from the reunification of 1990 is de jure the result of the absorption of the territories of East Germany by West Germany. It is therefore based on the same constitution as West Germany before 1990, has the same name and has adopted the same emblems.

-East Germany, whose official name was the German Democratic Republic, was a communist country that was a member of the Warsaw Pact. Its capital was East Berlin.  

East Germany was created on October 7, 1949 by the United Socialist Party of Germany allied with the USSR from the area occupied by the Red Army. This event took place after the founding of the Federal Republic of Germany by the Western powers.

The correct answer is Jackson's attacks showed how weak Spain was in Florida.

Jackson's attack in 1818 to hunt the Red Sticks resulted in a major international affair and diplomacy problem, once the invaded land was Spanish territory and there was no war declarations or threats.

The resulting backlash of the invasion actually turned Andrew Jackson into a hero and resulted in the 1919 Adams-Onís Treaty, in which Spain ceded the Florida region to the United States of America. This resolution was only made possible because the although the 1818 invasion angered the Spanish, they had no means to retaliate or take back the seized land, especially by brute force. Hence the only option Spain had was to sign the treaty and cede the land for the USA, exposing the fragility and inability of the Spanish to defend the land. With the treaty, Spain ceded their last piece of land in the Americas.

Answer:

Jackson's attacks showed how weak Spain was in Florida.

The main and most important is to recognize that chemical weapons not only affect the place where they were released, sooner or later the effect will spread and nobody knows the damage they are making to the planet. but do not forget also the damage they do at immediate term.

Answer:

The loss of life would have been greater if a conventional invasion of Japan occurred.

Japan seemed unwilling to surrender even in the face of almost certain defeat without an overwhelming show of force.

It would be immoral to kill civilians who would inevitably be killed in such an attack.

Using such a weapon would simply encourage other countries to develop such weapons—this would endanger the whole world.

Domestication of animals played a crucial role in ending nomadic ways of life by facilitating sedentary food production and societal development.

Domestication of animals aided in the end of nomadic ways of life. The domestication of animals allowed societies to transition from hunting and gathering to sedentary food production, making it more profitable to keep animals close at hand.

As societies began to recognize their ability to tame and breed animals and cultivate plants, some groups relied on the domestication of animals for survival, leading to the end of nomadic lifestyles.

The rise of agriculture and domestication of animals provided a surplus of goods, enabling societies to settle in one spot and develop socially, economically, and technologically.

1. In Franklin Roosevelt's speech "The Four Freedoms", he addresses all the nations in the world, but the main focus is in the U.S. Nation in an intention to get public support and mobilize it away from its position of neutrality regarding foreign policy. This occurred because, by 1941, America was in a stage of extreme isolationism from foreign wars and entanglements, and Roosevelt anxiously watched as Hitler's regime was taking over many European nations.

2. Every totalitarian nation at the time such as Nazi Germany, Facist Italy, and Japan might have felt criticized by this speech, since their regime was based on complete oppresion and freedom was not included in their ideologies.
