Answer:

Explanation:

The panic started when the stock market in Europe crashed and Investors began to sell off the investments they had in American projects, especially the railroads. railway companies had been borrowing money to build new rails through bonds which were debt securities. The  Europeans started selling their railroad bonds, When there were soon more bonds for sale than anyone wanted and as a result, the railroad companies could no longer find anyone who would lend them cash and they went bankrupt. Jay Cooke & Company which was one of the biggest banks in New York City went bankrupt since it had invested a lot of money in the railroads. When people saw this they run to their banks demanding all of their money back.

Who is elligible for a givernment bursary teaching
valkas [14]

Generous, tax-free funding is available to the best graduates training in a range of subjects. You could get a £26,000 bursary or be awarded a prestigious scholarship – which provides additional support and benefits throughout your training year. If you teach maths, you could get £30,000 – a £20,000 tax-free bursary while you train and a further £10,000 after tax once in teaching. With or without a bursary or scholarship, you could receive a tuition fee loan and maintenance loan to help fund your teacher training year. Alternatively, you could earn a salary while you train. 

You can use the student finance calculator to estimate student loans and extra funding that may be available, for instance Parents’ Learning Allowance, Childcare Grants or Child Tax Credits. If you’re on a salaried course, you can estimate any in-work benefits by using the calculators on GOV.UK. The calculator is for trainees intending to train in 2017/18 – you can still use this to get an estimate of your entitlement for 2018/19. An updated version will be released soon.

Why were written laws needed as early societies became larger and more complex?
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

To establish and maintain a sense of uniform order amongst the people

Explanation:

So, as societies grew in both population and in land occupation, it became harder to regulate the civil obligations of being a "good citizen." The earliest written "code of law" is Code of Hammurabi, which established the "eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth" as a law to follow for a peaceful society. The use of an established set of law's helped to create a universal understanding of what was expected to be followed by all men throughout a large area ruled by one "king" which also helped to unify those city-states under one identity. His codes also laid out the punishment for breaking said law so there would be no confusion or room of interpretation on consequences of actions.
