Answer:
The Louisiana Purchase has been described as the greatest real estate deal in history. In 1803 the United States paid France $15 million for the Louisiana Territory--828,000 square miles of land west of the Mississippi River. The lands acquired stretched from the Mississippi River to the Rocky Mountains and from the Gulf of Mexico to the Canadian border. Thirteen states were carved from the Louisiana Territory. The Louisiana Purchase nearly doubled the size of the United States, making it one of the largest nations in the world. U.S. treaties with foreign powers are preserved at the National Archives. The Louisiana Purchase consists of three separate agreements between the United States and France: a treaty of cession and two agreements providing for the exchange of monies in the transaction. The volume shown above is the French exchange copy of the convention providing for the settlement of an earlier debt owed by France to the United States. The first image shows the volume closed; the second shows the volume open to the page bearing Napoleon Bonaparte's signature.
Locke says it's impossible to know whether physical objects exist.
True or false?
Does Locke say it's impossible to know whether physical objects exist?
The correct answer is False.
What did Locke believe about reality?Locke believes in the existence of a physical reality separate from our spiritual reality. He argues that, as in the physical world, we can never really make an exact copy of an object in our minds that corresponds to the object itself. You can only get ideas about this object based on our experience.
This view is known as empiricism. Locke argued that if we have innate ideas (knowledge not gained from experience), all beings with a mind should be aware of them.

What is strategic about the location of the city of Khartoum?
Answer:
Explanation:
Khartoum, Arabic Al-Khartoum city, executive capital of Sudan, just south of the confluence of the Blue and White Nile rivers. It has bridge connections with its sister towns, Khartoum North and Omdurman, with which it forms Sudan’s largest conurbation. Originally an Egyptian army camp (pitched 1821), Khartoum grew into a garrisoned army town. The Mahdists besieged and destroyed it in 1885 and killed Major General Charles George Gordon, then the British governor-general of the Sudan. Reoccupied in 1898, Khartoum was rebuilt by Governor-General Lord Kitchener and served as the seat of the Anglo-Egyptian Sudan government until 1956, when the city became the capital of the independent republic of Sudan.

what did the British redcoats do during the Boston Massacre in 1770
Answer:
SORRY ITS A LONG ANSWER!!!
Explanation:
opened fire upon a unruly crowd of Boston citizens. Five Bostonians died and eleven more were wounded. This event came to be popularly referred to as the Boston Massacre and was memorialized for years afterward on this date.
The tradition continues tomorrow when a number of events are taking place at the Old State House including a reenactment of the actual "massacre". The reenactment starts at 6:30 p.m. at the Old State House at the head of State St.(formerly known as King St.). J.L. Bell does his usual excellent job and gives a fuller account of the days events in his blog Boston 1775.
The British soldiers and their officer were placed on trial for the "murder of Crispus Attucks, Samuel Gray, Samuel Maverick, James Caldwell, and Patrick Carr". They were defended in part by John Adams of Braintree, who became an ardent supporter of American independence and a future U.S. President. The soldiers were acquitted of all charges, except two soldiers who were found guilty of manslaughter. They were branded with the letter "m" on their thumbs and released.
The Brattle Book Shop on 9 West St. in Boston, interestingly enough, has a copy of the account of the trial for sale in their rare book section
Were African-Americans who migrated to the North treated fairly? Explain your answer!
Answer: hey moved. Driven in part by economic concerns, and in part by frustration with the straitened social conditions of the South, in the 1870s African Americans began moving North and West in great numbers. In the 1890s, the number of African Americans moving to the Northeast and the Midwest was double that of the previous decade. In 1910, it doubled again, then again in 1920. In the 1920s, more than 750,000 African Americans left the South--a greater movement of people than had occurred in the Irish potato famine of the 1840s.
The large-scale relocation to the Northeast and West brought many other changes with it, as many largely rural people moved into cities for the first time. Housing was difficult to come by, and in many cities the non-African American residents demanded strict segregation, relegating the new arrivals to self-contained neighborhoods in undesirable parts of town. In addition, most of the available work in the cities was industrial, and many migrating African Americans faced the prospect of learning new trades, generally at lower rates of pay than European Americans received. Tensions between longtime residents and new migrants frequently flared, and during the first decades of the century race riots struck many of the nation's cities and towns, from Springfield, Illinois, and Rosewood, Florida, to New York, Los Angeles, Detroit, and Tulsa.

Whay made the fear of communism real?
Answer:
The First Red Scare was during World War One when the Bolsheviks had successfully overthrown the Tsar Monarchy and provisional government. Later on after World War II and during the Cold War, many tensions started growing between the US and Soviet Union. This had started a second Red Scare in the American populace. The Soviets had amazing spy networks among ordinary American life. Americans were not only scared that the Soviets had nuclear weapons to rival that of the US but even their next-door neighbor could be a spy. This caused mass hysteria and events such as McCarthy's purges would single out any individual who "seemed" Communist. The levels of paranoia skyrocketed and sent the US into division and chaos.
Answer:
The red scare in 1919 and again in WWII happened as a result of the Bolshevik revolution in Russia which made people associate unions with socialists to communists which J Edgar Hoover directed Mitchell Palmer to conduct Palmer Raids to crack down on "suspected communitsts".

A government by the people
Answer:
Democracy.
Explanation:
Democracy can be defined as a government of the people, by the people and for the people.
There are two (2) main types of democracy and these include;
I. Representative democracy: it's also known as indirect democracy and can be defined as a form of government which typically involves the process of having the citizens of a particular country vote to elect representatives (political leaders) to enact laws, create policies and make decisions on their behalf.
II. Direct democracy: it can be defined as a process which typically involves the candidates voting for their preferred choice. Thus, their choices are reflected directly on the subject matter.
Generally, the type of government in which legislators such as senators or house of representative members are found is known as a democracy and they are saddled with the responsibility of enacting or making laws.
Hence, a government by the people is generally referred to as democracy.

What feature of the Lusitania was considered her greatest defense against a submarine attack bur that the ship was unable to takw advantage of because of the fog?
Answer:
The Lusitania was not only a luxury cruise liner but was also an armed/ merchant cruiser, equipped with military ammunitions, making it possible for her to fight or defend itself from any attack.
Explanation:
The ocean liner, Lusitania was a British passenger ship bound for Liverpool from New York. The cruise liner carries not only British passengers but also American nationals.
At the time of the journey, World War I was in motion but the US was still a neutral nation. But the zone of wars that were raging between Germany and her allies and Britain and her allies included the waters the Lusitania was to journey through. And ships and any boast traveling in the waters were attacked and torpedoed by German U-boats to try to stop or prevent any military attack.
So, although the cruise liner Lusitania was in truth a passenger liner, it was also equipped with machinery and military features if in need of any defense system. This made the liner safe from a submarine attack, for it can attack the submarine back. But at the same time, she was unable to make use of the facilities because of the fog covering the sea in the early hours of the day she was sunk by the German U-boat U-20 on 7 May 1915 near the south coast of Ireland.
