Identify and explain-a-significant decision-made by George Washington as president that had immediate
consequences for the United States of America.
Explanation:
1. General Washington decided not to impose a battlefield strategy on his field commanders. The general consensus among historians is that Washington was a mediocre military strategist at best. However, a recent study in the Academy of Management Journal cast some doubt on that consensus.
The study found that in large, multifaceted enterprises, the biggest threat to speedy strategic decision making is “strategic imposition” from the mothership. Historians still debate whether Washington favored a “Fabian strategy” of quick attacks and even quicker retreats, or a more traditional strategy of fighting major head-to-head battles. The discrepancy comes largely from the fact that he imposed neither strategy. His young and mostly inexperienced commanders were free to employed either one. At a high level, Washington decided that the Colonies would always have a standing army in the field that was as well-trained as possible under the time and budget constraints, rather than a hodgepodge of untrained militia men roaming the countryside. Beyond that general strategic direction, and some basic tactical goals, Washington let his young leaders make their own strategic decisions in the field—capitalizing on the speed and agility advantage they had over their larger and better-trained competitors.
2. Washington decided to oversee renovations on Mount Vernon during the most tenuous year of the Revolution. Imagine leading a comically outnumbered, under-resourced, and woefully unskilled force where the majority of your teenaged army marches throughout the New England snow barefoot because you can’t afford to buy them shoes in a war that—if lost—could send you to the gallows for treason. Then in the midst of all this, staying up late at night sending letters home describing the right color of the new curtains in the living room. Historians are still puzzled as to why throughout 1776, Washington continued micromanaging his home renovations from the front lines of the most difficult, dangerous, chaotic, and important leadership position of his life. Perhaps the only thing more puzzling is how he maintained confidence and composure in spite of knowingly facing such overwhelming odds.
Modern psychology might provide a clue to this riddle. Psychologists at UCLA and NYU discovered that after making a benign decision such as where to go on vacation and then making a basic plan for executing that decision, people showed significantly higher self-esteem and optimism, while feeling less vulnerable to completely uncontrollable risks such as earthquakes. In other words, making even a small decision on something completely unrelated to your primary focus can shift you into a confident, empowered mindset.
One of Washington’s greatest assets during the American Revolution and his presidency afterward, was his ability to inspire the confidence and alignment needed to gather political and financial support from so many diverse stakeholder groups including the Continental Congress, the American public, the French government, and his own soldiers. Perhaps this peculiar, yet easily controlled side project was precisely what enabled Washington to stay in the confident, decisive mindset that his leadership role demanded.
3. Washington Decided not to make himself supreme ruler of the United States. After risking his life to lead the American Revolution—often bravely putting himself directly in the line of fire—Washington shocked the entire world by voluntarily returning all his powers to the American people and their elected representatives. It was a decision that even led his recently defeated foe, King George III, to comment that Washington was “the greatest character of his generation.” We will never know whether this decision was driven by altruism or a self-interested desire to be adored by history. What we do know is that decision aligned perfectly with the pattern of decisions Washington established throughout his lifetime. He was an exemplar of what Wharton professor Adam Grant describes as “otherish”—people who are both highly giving and highly self-interested.
Regardless of how pure Washington’s motives may or may not have been, it’s easy to imagine a bright future for a world populated by leaders who treated every decision as an opportunity to reveal the high quality of their character.

WILL MARK BRAINLIEST what effect did mansa musa have on islam in north africa and what affect did islam have on mali
Answer:
Explanation:
1. What affect did Islam have on Mal.
answer: By traveling to Mali, Mansa Musa helped spread the thoughts of Mali a way that portrayed the power and wealth of the empire, thus he made Mali an even greater world power.
2. what effect did Mansa musa have on islam in North Africa
Answer: Following the conquest of North Africa by Muslim Arabs in the 7th century CE, Islam spread throughout West Africa via merchants, traders, scholars, and missionaries, that is largely through peaceful means whereby African rulers either tolerated the religion or converted to it themselves. In this way, Islam spread across and around the Sahara Desert. In addition, the religion arrived in East Africa when Arab traders crossed the Red Sea and, in a second wave, settled along the Swahili Coast. Military campaigns did occur from the 14th century CE against the Christian kingdoms of Nubia, for example, while in the 18th century CE the Muslim Fulani launched a holy war in the Lake Chad region. There were also sometimes violent resistance by supporters of traditional African beliefs such as animism and fetish, spirit and ancestor worship.

What was the Unions most important strategy for the war?
The North's strategy to win the Civil War was proposed by General Winfield Scott and is known as "The Anaconda Plan." The reason the strategy was called "The Anaconda Plan" was because it was to create a blockade for seaports so the manufactured goods or cotton sales coming from overseas would be cut off.
Answer:
The Union strategy to win the war did not emerge all at once. By 1863, however, the Northern military plan consisted of five major goals: Fully blockade all Southern coasts. This strategy, known as the Anaconda Plan, would eliminate the possibility of Confederate help from abroad.

Describe the argument that took place at the Constitutional Convention about how to count votes in the Legislative Branch (Not the 3/5 compromise). Explain both plans and what they decided to do.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although there are no options attached or further reference, we can comment on the following.
The argument that took place at the Constitutional Convention about how to count votes in the Legislative Branch was that the delegates tried to come up with the best plan to have a good legislative system that allowed equity in the electoral participation of the states, knowing that some were large states with a large number of citizens, and on the other hand, there were small states with fewer citizens.
Delegates came up with two Plans. The Virginia Plan, drafted by federalist James Madison that proposed a bicameral system for the legislative branch, and the New Jersey Plan drafted by William Patterson, which proposed the unicameral system for Congress.
The plan that made things work and moved the negotiators to be approved was the so-called Connecticut Plan that accepted the idea of having two chambers in Congress as was proposed by Roger Sherman, but with the novelty of having a proportional representation in the House of Representatives. The Senate was going to have a fixed number of Senators, so states could be in equity regarding representation.
Describe the difference between the approach and ideas of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Malcolm X
Answer:
Malcolm X were both civil rights leaders during the 1960s. Both were deeply religious but had different ideologies about how equal rights should be attained. MLK focussed on nonviolent protest (e.g., bus boycotts, sit-ins, and marches), while Malcolm X believed in attaining equal rights by any means necessary.
