History
1 answer:
Mila [183]1 year ago
5 0

David Wilmot was a Pennsylvania-born congressman who opposed slavery. His "proviso"—a clause tacked on to a number of legislation being debated in Congress—prohibited slavery in all of the new territory won from Mexico following the Mexican War. Although the proviso was well-liked in the North, it was vehemently opposed by the South and never became a part of the legislation.  It declared that slavery would be outlawed in any new area that the United States might take over from Mexico. The argument over whether slavery still exists in the West was rekindled.

<h3>Answer:</h3>

You could get yourself informed on trusted government or political sites. You could watch the news, have verbal sources for information, or research things on various sites of the internet.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Certain Government sites will tell you about the outcomings of the election, the state of our nation with other countries (Such as Afghanistan), and other various things.

Watching the news is a debatable source of information. For example, some news programs tell it how it is, while other sources will pull on your heartstrings or bring up evidence to give you a sense of empowerment.

Verbal sources include podcasts and people around you.

Various sites of the internet means going onto a lot of different sites and getting the opinions and facts centered around something. This can include following a political channel.

Usually books are included in information-grabbing, but there will likely not be a book on something happening right now, as it takes months for a book to go through the stages.

Why does the food aid from the United States hurt the Haitian economy and what does it force Haitian farmers to do?
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

"There is a risk, definitely. And we are very aware of that," says Brooke Isham, director of the Food for Peace program at the US Agency for International Development (USAID). "And that is why we are always looking at the impact of food aid on local markets and whether it is depressing prices in local markets."

USAID, the UN World Food Program (WFP) and others monitor markets regularly. Etienne Labonde, head of WFP's program in Haiti, says, as of March, food aid did not cause major disruptions in Haiti's economy. "Maybe it's an impression, but it's not the facts at the moment," he says.

Low prices can lead Haiti's farmers to store rice rather than sell it at a loss.

Whether impression or fact, Haitian President Rene Preval raised the issue when he came to Washington last month. He said food aid was indispensible right after the earthquake. But, "If we continue to send food and water from abroad," he said, "it will compete with national production of Haiti and with Haitian trade."

andre [41]

Answer:

1( Britain and France

2( Germany and the Soviet Union

3( . The Soviet occupation of eastern Poland in September and the “Winter War” against Finland in December led President Franklin Roosevelt to condemn the Soviet Union publicly as a “dictatorship as absolute as any other dictatorship in the world,” and to impose a “moral embargo” on the export of certain products to the Soviets. Nevertheless, in spite of intense pressure to sever relations with the Soviet Union, Roosevelt never lost sight of the fact that Nazi Germany, not the Soviet Union, posed the greatest threat to world peace. In order to defeat that threat, Roosevelt confided that he “would hold hands with the devil” if necessary.

4( The Eastern Front, where troops from Germany, Austria-Hungary, Turkey, Russia, and the Balkans fought, was larger than the Western Front.
