Describe three examples of anti-democratic actions by the U.S. during and after the war.
Answer:
The Middle East, Afghanistan and Taliban regime and World War I
Explanation:
During the World War I, promises were made to restore pleasant democratic practices and to ensure the rule of law take it course, apparently all these were short-lived when these promises were not effectively delivered. George W. Bush also held out promises during and after the war in Iraq which was to oust the sitting regime of Saddam Hussein so as to restore democracy and make it safe for the citizens. This later turned out to be the same disappointment and anti-democratic conclusions that were followed by Woodrow Wilson in the First World War and the Middle East was engaged in endless cycles of bloodshed after the war. A third example is that of the Taliban Regime in Afghanistan that ended in the same fate and it turned out that most times, promises that were made were likely not being prepared to be fulfilled by those who made them.

Explanation:
Describe the course of the war 1812 in 400 words
Answer:
I'll save you the points because my answer may not appease your guidelines. Here is it in basic form. America want's Canada or what is at the time just a territory of Great Britan with a little autonomy. Essentially a territory and if given leniency for the sake of governance it could be considered a puppet/dominion. Basically America was sick of the Britis. They took their sailors who at the time were getting taken by the numerically superior British Navy and well enslaved them for lack of better terms well the technical term is impressment but yeah its work against their will by that of a foreign power. It angered American Politicians and they felt that at this time they did not get the respect nor recognition they deserved. If Canada was indeed taken maybe the British would leave America alone and pursue the Monroe doctrine. Although unlike most modern Wars it was a war declared by Congress and approved by the president. Problem was we didn't really have a great Army or even one to begin with. You could argue some divisions of the Federal government did exist like Merchant marines, American legion, etc. but lets just say we didn't have a grandstanding army. We win, we loose, our navy ain't so hot. Our generals not so smart we burn Ontario. Go into Quebec it's cold so we get out. Canada burns us too and our White house. Madison somehow leads the people of D.C. to believe in him and surprisingly keeps moral up after their literal Capital is burnt. Also didn't really end until 1814. Also in D.C the invading British forces somehow by a miracle a tornado I kid you not pushed the British out of D.C. and stopped their invasion. Sometimes luck really was on America's side so if you believe in providence I mean that's a great example. Basically 1814 fort mchenry happens. Star Spangled banner. It's the entiphasis of America. Also flag is 15 stars 15 bars extremely unique but fitting for the time. General Andrew Jackson leads his men to victory. The entire city of Baltimore was into the effort. All races, creeds, and people united by one nation indivisible. That day proved to show how we could all one day be simply Americans. We won although being outnumbered and through each day of bombs bursting in air we came back with a bigger flag. This battle created our national anthem. There was a treaty signed between both nations. Basically agreeing to stop mess with one another and recognize each other. It even allowed for some trade so that was a positive. Some speculate on who actually won the War. Is it the British or Americans. Brits don't care since the Napolean wars and such and although I believe the Canadians do well they weren't exactly autonomous and didn't gain much quite either. America did not get to annex Canada but they did gain as some call it their second Independence and solidification into the world stage. They held off so we should give credit where its due. I usually say its a wish wash. A tie if you will. All gains were negated and all losses for very little political points. I say it matters and yet matters not. Lots of lives to be lost for little gain in land. I guess you can say it was just a war of pride although it did not start that way. It ended up just showing capabilities and even both sides really couldn't win at least without changing a large portion of each individual nations history. The brits lists a building America Lost a building and none lost land so yeah lots of people lost over political recognition and withdraw from aggressive tactics but such is war.
Explanation:
Hitler's hatred of the Jews began with what assumption
Compare Mussolini's rise to power and totalitarian state in Italy that of Hitler's rise to power and totalitarian state in Germany.
Answer:
Explanation: Both, like most of the world then and now, was developing an economic depression from hordes of excess labor undercutting wages and depleting resources. Overpopulation was not under control anywhere then and the world had overwhelmed the current technology's ability to access sufficient resources for the expanding hordes of people. So it was once again time for the most desperate to attack neighbors and take their land and resources. WW I had slaughtered some excess people but its stagnant trench warfare did almost nothing to acquire more useful land for anyone.
The people of Italy, Spain, and Germany became interested in Marxist international socialist and fascist national socialist policies in their growing desperation. Because the national socialists promised to protect national industries and its jobs against foreign competition undercutting them, they won the competition between the two radical socialist philosophies.
Italy's Mussolini developed the fascist "corporatist" national socialist structure. It was a more efficient shallow bureaucratic system that "incorporated" each industry under a single government bureau that controlled it.
Spain and Germany copied Italy's model. Italy's economy started improving and it began more conquests south into Africa and east into the Balkans to feed it. Spain became mired with a war against its Marxists who were raging jealous against the national socialist's popularity "stealing" their proletariat from them. Communists from other countries, including the US, entered Spain to help their communists. The German national socialists sided with Franco, Spain's fascist leader, and helped defeat the communists in a fierce civil war made famous by writers like Hemingway.
Germany was the most successful with the system. It was well suited to the traditional German culture's stricter discipline and socialist origins (according to Marx). Their economy improved most rapidly and the world was fascinated at it's initial success until it began its conquest for the land needed by it's expanding population. LIke Greece, Rome, and France before it, it decided to take so much as it could, not just what it needed for the immediate future. The rest is history you should already know.

Explanation:
Which segment of the West African population accounted for more than half of those taken as slaves to the New World
Answer:
Adult men
Explanation:
Most of the slaves taken to the New World were adult men since they were viewed as more capable to perform the required labor. On top of that, a considerable number of adult male slaves died due to the rough conditions or during slave raids, which led to a greater need to capture adult men. This scenario caused a major imbalance in the male to female ratio in West Africa.

The white line politically dividing Korea represents
Select one:
a. the Iron Curtain
b. the Berlin War
c. the 38th parallel
d. the Demarcation Line of 1954
Answer:
The white line politically dividing Korea represents the 38th parallel.After WWII Korea was divided at the 38th parallel for purposes of military occupation. This line then solidified into a political frontier between American-supported Republic of Korea and the Soviet backed Democratic People's Republic of Korea. North Korean troops swept across the 38th parallel to attack South Korea.
Explanation:
i hope this will help you :)
Answer:
D
Explanation:
This is still the line today, and notice how in some areas they are more into the north or some more into the south? The few days and even the few hours before the war ended. The commanders of both sides ordered their forces to make a massive push to claim as much land as they could for their country. How did that work out? It was nearly pointless. Still, the fact that a South Korea exists. And KPOP (For some people...) Exists.
Addendum: Plus, the 38th Parallel division was once a straight line until wars end.

Answer:
The set of the first 10 amendments to the Constitution of the United States.
Explanation:
Bill of Rights is the name given to the set of the first 10 amendments to the United States Constitution, approved as a consequence of political pressure exerted by the anti-federalists, who wanted to guarantee that the individual rights of citizens were not curtailed by eventual tyrannical governments, and ratified in 1791.
Thus, these amendments began to protect the individual as a subject of rights, based on the principles of the Enlightenment and understanding man as the bearer of the fundamental rights to life and liberty. Thus, they guaranteed these rights to American citizens (not to African Americans, who were not considered citizens).
Answer:
The first ten amendments to the Constitution.

How has journalism evolved since the Spanish American War? is the told or prominence of media today likely to have a greater or lesser affect in the American public now? Fully explain your answer and give specific examples when needed at least 150 word (i will really appreciate it)

San Martín's strategy to consolidate independence
Answer:
San Martín's strategy to consolidate independence of Argentina was expelling Spaniards from neighboring countries.
Explanation:
Jose de San Martin was the main liberator of Argentina and the southern part of South America during the 1810s and 1820s. It was a military man born in Argentina, at that time the Viceroyalty of the Rio de la Plata colony, who had been educated in Spain and had fought for this country in the Napoleonic wars. Therefore, he was an experienced warrior who, once noted of the independence movement, decided to return to his homeland to lead the troops. His first battle was in San Lorenzo, in February 1813, followed by other iconic contests until on July 9, 1816, Argentina declared its independence from Spain.
But San Martin knew that, if they did not cooperate with neighboring countries, the Spanish would win and return to Argentine territory. For this reason, he organized the Army of the Andes to liberate Chile, which he achieved in 1818 after the Battle of Maipu.
Later, he continued with his army to the north, liberating Peru in 1821 and leaving the command of the South American independence effort to Simon Bolivar in 1822.
How were the accomplishments of Toussaint Louverture and Simón Bolívar
different?

B. Louverture liberated the northern part of South America from Spanish rule, while Bolívar freed Haiti From France.
C. Louverture focused on ending slavery, while Bolívar was more interested in achieving independence.
D. Louverture freed the southern part of South America from Spain, while Bolívar liberated the northern part.

Toussaint Louverture was the main leader of the Haitian Revolution, started in 1791 as a slave revolt in the French colony of Saint Domingue and ended in 1804 with the independence of Haiti, the first Latin American country to obtain emancipation.
Specifically, Louverture participated in the third stage of this conflict, which was from 1799 to 1801. There, he managed to form an army of almost 50,000 men who confronted and defeated the French forces, forming a self-government in the colony that in 1804 was He would become independent under the name of Haiti, although with Louverture already deceased, having died in captivity after being kidnapped by the French as a prisoner of war.
In turn, Simón Bolivar was the most influential and famous of the leaders of the war of independence of the Spanish colonies in Latin America. He was awarded the honorary title of Libertador because of his decisive contribution to the independence of Colombia, Ecuador, Panama, Peru and Venezuela. Its intention was to create a single Latin American nation, encompassing all the former Spanish colonies on the continent, under the name of Gran Colombia. Finally, his proposal did not prosper.

Certain main regulations are intended to reduce the rise in emissions from increasing motor vehicle numbers and new manufacturing plants.
6. Describe a time in the debate when someone made a point and did not back it up
with strong reasons and evidence.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Unfortunately, the question is incomplete because it does not provide what kind of debate it is referring to, or who were their protagonists.
However, we can comment on the following.
As we do not know what debate the question is referring to, lets put an example when a candidate did not provide hard data or back it up
with strong reasons and evidence.
In the last presidential election, the Republican candidate accused immigrants to be dangerous people that killed American citizens in the border zone. He told that they were a threat to America. It was a simple accusation just to enrage their followers. He did not prove it with serious data. Indeed, the Media published that there had been many more crimes committed by American citizens that immigrants. But what the candidate wanted to create was a sentiment of hate to support its platform against immigration.

which statement best explains how the constitution addresed a weakness in the articles of confederaction
B. Congress had no way to enforce or interpret the laws it passed, so the Constitution created the executive and judicial branches of the federal government.
Explanation:
Before the United States Constitution, there was the Articles of Confederation. These Articles ended up getting completely thrown out and replaced because many people thought it was too weak and brought the country down.
The Articles of Confederation was known to be very weak and gave little to no power to the federal government. The federal government could not properly create or enforce laws, regulate trade, or tax citizens. This made it very difficult to get anything done and many people thought that it weakened the country.
Anti-Federalists opposed creating a new constitution, as they felt like having a strong government was a threat. Federalists felt the opposite and they wanted to have a strong government and they thought that having a strong government meant having a strong country.
With the Articles of Confederation, Congress couldn't really enforce or interpret any laws that were passed, which the Federalists did not agree with. When the Articles were replaced by the United States Constitution, branches were created in order to equally distribute power and make sure that no power would be used in an unfair or unethical manner.
