As Europeans expanded their market reach into the colonial sphere, they devised a new economic policy to ensure the colonies’ profitability. The philosophy of mercantilism shaped European perceptions of wealth from the 1500s to the late 1700s. Mercantilism held that only a limited amount of wealth, as measured in gold and silver bullion, existed in the world. In order to gain power, nations had to amass wealth by mining these precious raw materials from their colonial possessions. Mercantilists did not believe in free trade, arguing instead that the nation should control trade to create wealth and to enhance state power. In this view, colonies existed to strengthen the colonizing nation.
Colonial mercantilism, a set of protectionist policies designed to benefit the colonizing nation, relied on several factors:
Colonies rich in raw materials
Cheap labor
Colonial loyalty to the home government
Control of the shipping trade

<h3>The shortcomings of the Progressive movement</h3>

The Progressive Era was one that existed from the year 1900 to 1918. Ths kind of era was one where there was the movement to address social, economic and political problems as  sin the U.S.

The  reform in this era was one that did not handle the issues, problem or the plight of African Americans. One common example is that due to racism, African Americans were not allowed to attend school with other white students. Another is that African Americans cannot buy a house in a certain neighborhood, due to color of their skin.

The Progressive movement is one that is said to be different for immigrants and the minorities. The immigrants and minorities were said to have different kind and forms of racism.

They were said to be forced to replace their foods and customs with that of the Protestant practices and values. The way the issue can be handled is by law. Government should make law that cancel discrimination and segregation and also the public should be sensitized that everyone is equal and one should not discriminate.

How are the Great Pyramids at Giza different from the pyramid of Djoser?
Maksim231197 [3]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The great pyramids of <em>Giza, </em>in Cairo, Egypt, are magnificent structures built with an angle of 52 grades, impossible to built in nowadays modern engineering. This is a fact that astonishes modern science. They were built as tombs for Pharaohs. These are the Pyramid of Khufu, the Pyramid of Kehfre, and the Pyramid of Menkaure. They had secret chambers, some already accessed by scientists, some not. Indeed, the Great Pyramid of Khufu is considered among the "7 wonders of the ancient world." Nobody knows exactly when a who built these magnificent pyramids, although there are many theories.

The pyramid of <em>Djoser</em> is a step pyramid is located in Saqqara, Egypt, built in 2700 BC as a burial to Pharaoh Djoser. It was a cut stone construction that in no way compares to any of the pyramids of Giza.
