The Indian National Congress, (often called the Congress Party or simply Congress, abbr. INC) is a political party in India with widespread roots.[16] Founded in 1885, it was the first modern nationalist movement to emerge in the British Empire in Asia and Africa.[a][17] From the late 19th century, and especially after 1920, under the leadership of Mahatma Gandhi, Congress became the principal leader of the Indian independence movement.[18] Congress led India to independence from the United Kingdom,[b][19][c][20] and powerfully influenced other anti-colonial nationalist movements in the British Empire.[d][17]
How did these millets help the Ottoman Empire hold their diverse empire together?
Answer:
It gave the minority religious communities limited power to deal with their own affairs, but the Ottomans held the overall supremacy
Explanation:
This would have helped them keep the empire together. Trying to control the entire country (Fully) at once and with how diverse it is can be hard to keep it together. An example, the Roman Empire and their inevitable decline. With separate governing bodies, with the oversight of the Ottomans, helped keep the empire together. This is probably why they lasted for a little over 600 years.

Which organization - the NWP or the NAWSA - more likely to have an impact on the women's suffrage movement and the proposal to amend the constitution granting women the right to vote? Why ?
Answer:
The origins of the National Woman's Party (NWP) date from 1912, when Alice Paul and Lucy Burns, young Americans schooled in the militant tactics of the British suffrage movement, were appointed to the National American Woman Suffrage Association's (NAWSA) Congressional Committee. They injected a renewed militancy into the American campaign and shifted attention away from state voting rights toward a federal suffrage amendment.At odds with NAWSA over tactics and goals, Paul and Burns founded the Congressional Union for Woman Suffrage (CU) in April 1913, but remained on NAWSA's Congressional Committee until December that year. Two months later, NAWSA severed all ties with the CU.
The CU continued its aggressive suffrage campaign. Its members held street meetings, distributed pamphlets, petitioned and lobbied legislators, and organized parades, pageants, and speaking tours. In June 1916 the CU formed the NWP, briefly known as the Woman's Party of Western Voters. The CU continued in states where women did not have the vote; the NWP existed in western states that had passed women's suffrage. In March 1917 the two groups reunited into a single organization–the NWP.
In January 1917 the CU and NWP began to picket the White House. The government's initial tolerance gave way after the United States entered World War I. Beginning in June 1917, suffrage protestors were arrested, imprisoned, and often force-fed when they went on hunger strikes to protest being denied political prisoner status.
The NWP's militant tactics and steadfast lobbying, coupled with public support for imprisoned suffragists, forced President Woodrow Wilson to endorse a federal woman suffrage amendment in 1918. Congress passed the measure in 1919, and the NWP began campaigning for state ratification. Shortly after Tennessee became the 36th state to ratify women's suffrage, the 19th Amendment was signed into law on August 26, 1920.
Once suffrage was achieved, the NWP focused on passing an Equal Rights Amendment. The party remained a leading advocate of women's political, social, and economic equality throughout the 20th century.

How would Confucius have felt about opium?
Answer:
not happy about it at all i mean they were get them addicted to that stuff
Explanation:
Opium (or poppy tears, scientific name: Lachryma papaveris) is dried latex obtained from the seed capsules of the opium poppy Papaver somniferum. Approximately 12 percent of opium is made up of the analgesic alkaloid morphine, which is processed chemically to produce heroin and other synthetic opioids for medicinal use and for the illegal drug trade
Confucius, China’s most famous teacher, philosopher, and political theorist, whose ideas have profoundly influenced the civilization of East Asia. Confucius’s life and teachings were an expression of self-cultivation, of the ability of human effort to shape its own destiny.
How would Confucius have felt about opium?
the teacher would have taught that this drug took away the possibility to shape your own destiny because of addiction. The drug takes your life away and all you think about is getting your fix.
Self-cultivation or personal cultivation is the development of one's mind or capacities through one's own efforts. Self-cultivation is the cultivation, integration and coordination of mind and body. It is associated with attempts to go beyond normal states of being, and enhancing and endless polishing of a person's capacities and potentials.
your not going to enhance your potentials in like smoking opium and thats what he would have taught. this drug steals your life away...

which option below is NOT one of the 5 freedoms of the 1st Amendment in the U.S. Constitution.
1 Speech

3 Religion

6 Assembly
The five freedoms of 1st Amendment:
Speech.ReligionPressAssemblyThe right to petition the government.Bear arms is NOT one of them.
The option which is not included in 1st amendment of the U.S. constitution is bear arms.
What became the 1st change to the U.S. constitution?The First Amendment to the American Constitution prevents the authorities from making legal guidelines that modify an established order.
Of religion, or that restrict the unrestrained exercise of religion, or abridge the liberty of speech, the liberty of the press, the liberty of meeting, or the proper to petition the authorities for redress of grievances.
It was followed on December 15, 1791, as one of the ten amendments that make up the Bill of Rights. The Bill of Rights was proposed to soothe Anti-Federalist competition before Constitutional ratification.
Initially, the First Amendment applied only to laws enacted by Congress, and many of its provisions were interpreted more narrowly than they are now.
Beginning with Gitlow v. New York (1925), the Supreme Court carried out the First Amendment to states—a system called incorporation—via the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.
The Free Press Clause protects books of facts and opinions and applies to a huge form of media.
The Supreme Court ruled in Near v. Minnesota (1931) and New York Times v. United States (1971) that the First Amendment protected against earlier restraints—pre-book censorship—in nearly all cases.
The Petition Clause protects the right to petition all branches and companies of the presidency for action.
In addition to the right of assembly guaranteed by this clause, the Court has also ruled that the change implicitly protects freedom of association.
From the above declaration, it's clear that choice 4, bear arms, is the proper choice.
