1. Why did the 1st Continental Congress meet?
2. How did the colonists feel about self-rule?
3. What was the Olive Branch Petition? Why did King George refuse to sign it?
4 Why did the 2nd Continental Congress meet?

Answer:

1: the first Continental Congress meets in Philadelphia. On September 5, 1774, the first Continental Congress in the United States met in Philadelphia to consider its reaction to the British government's restraints on trade and representative government after the Boston Tea Party.

2: It was in essence, a social contract in which the settlers consented to follow the compact's rules and regulations for the sake of survival. Thus, the colonists sincerely believed that they had the right to govern themselves, being separated from Britain by an ocean and having founded an entirely new society.

3: Americans had hoped that Parliament had curtailed colonial rights without the king's full knowledge, and that the petition would cause him to come to his subjects' defense. When George III refused to read the petition, many Americans realized that Parliament was acting with royal knowledge and support.

4: After violence broke out between Britain and its American colonies in 1775, delegates from the thirteen colonies met in Philadelphia to plot the course of war—and soon, independence.

The word "anime" in English refers to an animation style popular in Japan. The word comes from the Japanese name for animation. Anime is heavily influenced by Japanese comics, manga, and features characters with enlarged eyes, big hair, long limbs, exaggerated expressions, limited motion, and brush-stroke outlines. Anime has a large audience both in and outside of Japan.

Anime is also considered a visual art form as it displays a wide range of drawing styles. Typically, anime and manga feature characters with large eyes so they can display emotions. Osamu Tezuka, who is believed to have been the first one to use this feature, was inspired by American characters such as Betty Poop, Bambi, and Mickey Mouse.

Not only has anime drawn special interest toward the culture of Japan, it has also made significant impacts on the Western culture. Many Westerners have expressed an interest in the Japanese language to better understand the Japanese culture, art, and technology of anime.

We have been using gps systems for years now, but do you know the risks that come with having one in almost all of your devices? Well if you don’t, just know that it's not 100% risk, they can help you too. Are all of the rewards worth it? It is time to find out.

Its common knowledge that GPS can find and use your location for many things such as finding your destination, speed, ect. Ect. But do you know how they do it? GPS systems use multiple satellites to track your location to make many things easy for you like we mentioned previously. “A GPS tracking system uses the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) network. This network incorporates a range of satellites that use microwave signals that are transmitted to GPS devices to give information on location” Knowing all of this can help you figure out where your phone is if you lost it.

If you are ever in danger and call the police, they can use your GPS to find your location if you are ever unable to locate where you are. This can save many lives. GPS is also important to “figure out where you are needing to go” when it comes to vehicular travel. Many cars nowadays even have screens in them so you can connect your phones GPS to it, further highlighting the importance of the GPS.

However with the GPS, its not all sunshine and rainbows. Yes it can help you get out of an emergency, but it can be the thing that causes it in the first place. GPS is something that could be taken easily from someone who knows what they are doing, making you vulnerable to cyber attacks. If someone knows this information, they can figure out so much about you. So GPS can be dangerous to have.

In conclusion, GPS systems can be very helpful to the point where you feel like you need them, and even if you do not, there are many amounts of benefits to using them, from knowing where you are to being able to find lost items across the planet. yet there are still some risks when using them. Everything uses gps now and it is astonishing how little people truly know about them when they should. At least accounting for the huge amount it is used in anyone's day to day life. Don't you think this should be common knowledge?

I MET a traveller from an antique land
Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert ... Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage [face] lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which still survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;
And on the pedestal these words appear:
"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

Which word supports the meaning of boundless?
