Answer:
A. A southern strip of land in Arizona and New Mexico.
Explanation:
The Gadsden Purchase was a contractual agreement between Mexico and the United States of America with respect to the purchase of a portion of Mexico.
In 1853, the President of the United States of America, Franklin Pierce instructed the U.S Minister to Mexico, James Gadsden to buy the northern territory of Mexico. The government intended to use that portion of Mexico as a southern route for the construction of the transcontinental railroad.
The transaction was finalized in 1854 as the United States of America agreed to pay $10 million for a 29,670 square mile (76,800 kilometer square) portion of Mexico, which is today referred to as Southern Arizona and Southwestern New Mexico.
Hence, in the Gadsden Purchase of 1853, the United States of America purchased a southern strip of land in Arizona and New Mexico, after signing a contractual agreement with Mexico on the 30th of December, 1853.

what change in social attitude did the flapper represent in 1920s america?
Answer:
The easily recognized image of the flapper symbolizes the 1920s for many people. The flapper—with her short skirts, short hair, noticeable makeup, and fun-loving attitude—represented a new freedom for women. The old restrictions on dress and behavior were being overthrown.
Explanation:
Flappers of the 1920s were young women known for their energetic freedom, embracing a lifestyle viewed by many at the time as outrageous, immoral or downright dangerous. Now considered the first generation of independent American women, flappers pushed barriers in economic, political and sexual freedom for women.
Provide some background for 1970 in 3-5 sentences. What else was going on in America, besides the Vietnam War?
What do you think of Nixon saying he would be unaffected by the anti-war movement or the anti-war opinions held by most Americans?
Do you feel the president should be able to expand military action without congressional approval, such as Nixon expanding the war into Cambodia? Why or why not? What bill gave him the ability to do that?
How might Vietnam’s impact on Johnson’s presidency affected Nixon’s actions in the war?
Answer:
started the cold war.The history of the United States from 1964 through 1980 includes the climax and end of the Civil Rights Movement; the escalation and ending of the Vietnam War; the drama of a generational revolt with its sexual freedoms and use of drugs; and the continuation of the Cold War, with its Space Race to put a man on the Moon. The economy was prosperous and expanding until the recession of 1969–70, then faltered under new foreign competition and the 1973 oil crisis. American society was polarized by the ultimately futile war and by antiwar and antidraft protests, as well as by the shocking Watergate affair, which revealed corruption and gross misconduct at the highest level of government. By 1980 and the seizure of the American Embassy in Iran, including a failed rescue attempt by U.S. armed forces, there was a growing sense of national malaise.
The period closed with the victory of conservative Republican Ronald Reagan, opening the "Age of Reagan" with a dramatic change in national direction.[1] The Democratic Party split over the Vietnam War and other foreign policy issues, with a new strong dovish element based on younger voters. Many otherwise liberal Democratic "hawks" joined the Neoconservative movement and started supporting the Republicans—especially Reagan—based on foreign policy.[2] Meanwhile, Republicans were generally united on a hawkish and intense American nationalism, strong opposition to Communism, support for promoting democracy and human rights, and strong support for Israel.[3]
Memories of the mid-late 1960s and early 1970s shaped the political landscape for the next half-century. As Governor of Arkansas Bill Clinton explained in 1990, "If you look back on the Sixties and think there was more good than bad, you're probably a Democrat. If you think there was more harm than good, you're probably a Republican.

Which Robber Baron would be considered a Venture Capitalist by today’s standards?
Answer:
Bill Gates
Co-founder of Microsoft Corp.
Founded: 1975
"Ultimately, the PC will be a window to everything people are interested in-and everything we need to know."-Bill Gates
Some see him as an innovative visionary who sparked a computer revolution. Others see him as a modern-day robber baron whose predatory practices have stifled competition in the software industry. Regardless of what his supporters and detractors may think, few can argue that Bill Gates is one of, if not the most successful entrepreneur of the 20th century. In just 25 years, he built a two-man operation into a multibillion-dollar colossus and made himself the richest man in the world. Yet he accomplished this feat not by inventing new technology, but by taking existing technology, adapting it to a specific market, and then dominating that market through innovative promotion and cunning business savvy.
Gates' first exposure to computers came while he was attending the prestigious Lakeside School in Seattle. A local company offered the use of its computer to the school through a Teletype link, and young Gates became entranced by the possibilities of the primitive machine. Along with fellow student Paul Allen, he began ditching class to work in the school's computer room. Their work would soon pay off. When Gates was 16, he and Allen went into business together. The two teens netted $20,000 with Traf-O-Data, a program they developed to measure traffic flow in the Seattle area.
Despite his love and obvious aptitude for computer programming, and perhaps because of his father's influence, Gates entered Harvard in the fall of 1973. By his own admission, he was there in body but not in spirit, preferring to spend his time playing poker and video games rather than attending class.

He established and commanded a strong army force that helped the Union win the Civil War. However, during the initial period of the war, McClellan portrayed reluctance and unwillingness to take orders from anyone.
President Lincoln was frustrated that McClellan had amassed and trained a huge military force but refused to use it to attack the Confederates.

Answer:
King Hamurabi of Babylon.
Explanation:
Give a brief argument against ratification of the Treaty of Versailles.
Answer: Many Americans saw US involvement in WWI as a waste of time. From the very beginning it was not particularly popular. When the war ended many Americans saw a Europe that had changed little. Men had died, sacrifices made...and for what. America had walked into the ring of international diplomacy and affairs and received a bloody nose for our efforts. The result was a disillusionment with world affairs. The result of this disillusionment was a fundamental shift in American policy from internationalism to relative isolationism.
Everywhere one found a strong impulse to return to old isolationist ways. Wilson's inspiring leadership had keyed the American people to a spirit of self sacrifice that had even resulted in the prohibition of alcoholic beverages. But this was all changing. Victory had brought an emotional letdown - "the slump of idealism." It had also brought a profound disillusionment with the imperialistic and bickering Allies. The war to make the world safe for democracy [also known as the war to end all wars] had not made the world safe for democracy, nor had it ended wars. Some twenty conflicts of varying dimensions were being waged in various parts of the world. About all that America had seemingly derived (gotten) from the war was debt, inflation, prohibition, influenza, and ingratitude from Allies whom she had strained herself to help - while of course, helping to defeat a common enemy.
