What do you think made some Americans choose Liberia's location as a good site for relocating African Americans?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Liberia was the part of their own native land and also was colonised by America which Americans later freed in 1847 to get rid of African slaves

Explanation:

In the 19th century, US decided to abolish slavery and hence it freed all black men and women. They send free black Americans to colonised Africa region (50 years prior to abolition of slavery). This region lies in West Africa and today it is known as Liberia. During the initial years the freed African slaves struggled to secure land in West Africa and thus in 1821, a deal was done to establish a colony at Cape Mesurado. Cape Mesurado’s area was 38,250 square miles.  

Liberia was the part of their own native land and also was colonised by America which Americans later freed in 1847 to get rid of African slaves.

Fue una etapa en la que los colombianos quisieron modificar actitudes y conductas para revalorar aquello que habían dejado de hacer y se habían perdido.

También acontecimientos como la Guerra Civil en España influyó en estos cambios y transformaciones en Colombia, y en mayor grado, la Segunda Guerra Mundial de 1939 a 1945, y la forma en que concluyó con la detonación de la bomba atómica en las ciudades japonesas de Hiroshima y Nagasaki.

What were some poverty statistics from the 1960s that showed issues that America was facing?​

Answers

Answer:

50 years ago during the civil rights movement, the Poor People’s Campaign set out to put poverty reduction front and center on the national agenda. Over six weeks in 1968, a community-led multiethnic movement brought national attention to the plight of poor people in the United States. Today, as preparations begin around the country to commemorate the 50th anniversary of this campaign, we can look back and see what progress has been made and where work still needs to be done. This snapshot is the first in a series that will hopefully help readers understand the challenges surrounding poverty that remain today.

The current official U.S. poverty measure has been used since the 1960s, when it was devised as part of the “War on Poverty.” The official poverty line was originally set at approximately three times a basic food budget, adjusted by family size and composition, and it is updated annually by overall inflation. It is not a perfect measure of poverty. The thresholds are too low (largely because food prices rose more slowly than other prices since its inception) and it doesn’t count some key resources poor families rely on (such as in-kind public benefits like Medicaid or food stamps). In later snapshots, we’ll turn to the Supplemental Poverty Measure (SPM), a measure that better reflect both the resources families can access and the true cost of living. Whatever the measure’s shortcomings, it remains the official poverty rate reported by the federal government each year and the one used for determining eligibility for many safety net programs—and families that live below the official poverty line today are clearly facing genuine economic distress.

The figure below shows the official poverty rates of Americans overall as well as by age and race. Overall, about one in eight Americans live below the poverty line, which is about $25,000 for a family of four. According to the official measure, Americans ages 65 and up have seen the largest declines in poverty since 1968—from 25.0 percent to 9.3 percent—thanks primarily to Social Security. Social Security expansions to cover occupations initially excluded by the program, along with improved access to jobs and higher education driven by the civil rights movement, led to large declines in black poverty even before 1968, and this rate fell from 34.7 percent in 1968 to 22.0 percent today. An often-overlooked decline in black poverty also took place during the tight labor market of the 1990s. Between 1994 and 2001, black poverty fell almost 8 full percentage points, as persistent low unemployment disproportionately helped historically disadvantaged groups.

"When an unconquered country is conquered, slaughter, death, and deportation of people [are taking place] there. Thus arose His Sacred Majesty's Remorse for having conquered the Kalingas...." primary or secondary??? Plz answer

Answers

Hello. The correct question is:

Background: Following the Battle of Kalinga, Asoka surveyed the cost of war and had the message below inscribed on a rock pillar found in his kingdom.

"When an unconquered country is conquered, slaughter, death, and deportation of people [are taking place] there. Thus arose His Sacred Majesty's Remorse for having conquered the Kalingas...."

Source: 13th Rock Edict from Asoka’s Kingdom. Circa 250 BC.

Remorse- deep regret for something

Is this a primary or secondary source?

Answer:

Primary

Explanation:

As we can see in the question above, the text was written by someone who witnessed the Battle of Kalinga and was assessing the cost that this war brought to the kingdom. In this case, we can recognize this text as a primary source, since primary sources are documents written about an event, written by someone who witnessed the event.

A second source, however, is a document, written by someone who analyzed documents from primary sources and did research on them.

The United would be very different for many reasons.

How did the Holocaust affect Jews and other targeted groups living in territories controlled by Nazis?

Answers

Answer:

Jews and other targeted groups were, well, targeted. Many tried their best to hide themselves through not celebrating/practicing their religion while others faced the consequences. In the early stages, most targeted groups were harrassed and couldn't sell products. Many consequences in the later stages were severe and led many to be brutally murdered, or sent off to concentration camps(which in most cases also led to death) Some were able to flee persecution by becoming refugees while the others were left to suffer in the "ghettos" (assigned areas of living for persecuted groups) where illness was spread and food/clean water was scarce

Answer:

The Holocaust was the systematic, state-sponsored persecution and murder of six million Jews by the Nazi regime and its allies and collaborators. The Nazis came to power in Germany in January 1933. They believed that the Germans belonged to a race that was "superior" to all others. They claimed that the Jews belonged to a race that was "inferior" and a threat to the so-called German racial community.

Please help me with this homework please I need help

Answers

Answer:

I have time to help with a few:

1. One was the small pocks disease, another was the flu, and one of the worst, measles.

2. Slaves required almost no money to keep alive and working, thus was more or less free labor. Free labor meant prophets doubled compared to when white men who had to be paid did the same jobs.

3. Essentially, colonists (or Americans, depending on the time frame) Had many years to develop cures to many diseases, yet because the native Americans had only a few years and relatively no technology, diseases were able to destroy them.

4. N/A

5. Cramped space, hundreds of slaves and disease meant they were more or less trapped with a lion, as disease killed many that were on the middle journey.

6. One was obviously hunger. Disease, lack of clothes, the beatings from their masters, and separation of family as well as discrimination were all pretty big factors to slave life.

7. N/A (although, if I had to guess, it's because they had a common factor; both were abused and disliked the white man)

8. Well, all of the factors from number 6 can be applied here. Essentially, slaves were like property; they do whatever you want them to do and you treat them as you like.

9. They were taken from their homes, stripped of their dignity and their rights/freedom. Religion was the one thing that the whites couldn't really take from them, and therefore was guarded with their lives.

10. Disease sometimes meant that some slaves didn't make it to America, and those that did didn't make it long due to disease (in combination with the factors of number 6). Disease made the transfer hard, as well as the life of the slave hard.

Explanation:

Scale = 1 : 400

1cm on the model = 400 cm actual

Dimension of store room (model) = 1.5 by 2 cm

Actual dimension :

1.5cm * 400 = 600cm = 600/100 = 6m

2cm * 400 = 800 cm = 800/100 = 8m

Area = Length * width = 6m * 8m = 48m²

2.)

Actual dimension of shop house :

6cm * 400 = 2400cm = 2400/100 = 24m

4cm * 400 = 1600 cm = 1600/100 = 16m

Area of shop house = 24 * 16 = 384 m²

Ratio of shop house to store room

384 : 48 = 8 : 1

C.) if height of shop house = 3.75m

Volume of shop house in m³ :

Area * height
