Answer:

the status of the Philippines and Cuba

Explanation:

The Treaty of Paris ended the Spanish-American War that saw the United States claim the Philippines, Guam and Puerto Rico as part of their territory. Also Cuba became independent of its colonizers(spain) which was mostly one of the reasons for the war as America fought to free them from the rule of Spain. Spain was also compensated $20 million dollars in losses suffered. However shortly after United States take over of the Philippines, there was a resistance from Filipinos stemming from the critic of United States' hypocritical stance in seizing a territory for itself while after critizing Spain and other European powers for colonization. The resulting war saw over 4000 American casualties.

Please hurry lots of points and brainiest to the best answer, please
BaLLatris [955]

Answer: Civil liberties are protections against government actions. For example, the First Amendment of the Bill of Rights guarantees citizens the right to practice whatever religion they please. Government, then, cannot interfere in an individual's freedom of worship. Amendment I gives the individual "liberty" from the actions of the government.

Civil rights, in contrast, refer to positive actions of government should take to create equal conditions for all Americans. The term "civil rights" is often associated with the protection of minority groups, such as African Americans, Hispanics, and women. The government counterbalances the "majority rule" tendency in a democracy that often finds minorities outvoted.

Explanation:

What is the difference between a liberty and a right? Both words appear in the Declaration of Independence and the Bill of Rights. The distinction between the two has always been blurred, and today the concepts are often used interchangeably. However, they do refer to different kinds of guaranteed protections.

Identify the united states and soviet aligned states of europe, and contrast their political and economic characteristics
LenKa [72]

After World War II and throughout the Cold War, Europe was divided into two spheres of influence. On the one hand, most of Western Europe was aligned with the capitalist ideology of the United States. On the other hand, central and eastern Europe were aligned with the Soviet Union. This means that the wanted to implement a communist government in their country.

These areas were very different in terms of political and economic characteristics. The capitalists countries believed in the free market, and they supported an economy that was self-regulating. They also encouraged trade with other countries and were, for the most part, democratic states.

The Soviet countries usually had authoritarian governments. Moreover, they supported the idea of a command economy in which everything was regulated by the state.
