Explanation:
People all over the nation, even the world, responded with donations of clothing, food, and shelter. Doctors, nurses and Clara Barton and the American Red Cross arrived to provide medical assistance and emergency shelter and supplies. The Johnstown Flood was the first major disaster served by the recently formed Red Cross. Doctors worried especially about diseases that might breed in the unclean water and decaying bodies of humans and animals.
Undertakers volunteered for the gruesome task of preparing over 2,000 bodies for burial. 700 of the victims could not be identified. They were buried together in a new cemetery built high above the town. Recovering the bodies took weeks and cleaning up debris took months. Five thousand homes had been destroyed, so many families lived in tents. During recovery and relief efforts the state of Pennsylvania put Johnstown under martial (military) law, since many of the towns leaders had perished in the flood. General Hastings took charge for several months, making sure relief supplies went to survivors who needed them and keeping the press from taking over the town.
The U.S constitution didn’t protect their rights.
The Battle of the Little Bighorn, fought on June 25, 1876, near the Little Bighorn River in Montana Territory, pitted federal troops led by Lieutenant Colonel George Armstrong Custer (1839-76) against a band of Lakota Sioux and Cheyenne warriors. Tensions between the two groups had been rising since the discovery of gold on Native American lands. When a number of tribes missed a federal deadline to move to reservations, the U.S. Army, including Custer and his 7th Calvary, was dispatched to confront them.

Explanation:
In his video about Alexander the Great and how he became great, John Greene gave reasons for how Alexander became great.
The first was his accomplishments. Alexander the Great conquered the largest empire at the time, Persia, which was a massive undertaking considering that the Persians had almost conquered Greece sometime before.
His impact on the world was another reason for his greatness. With his feats celebrated and passed through time, so many adored and wanted to be like him from Julius Caesar to Napoleon Bonaparte. During his conquests he also created cities and settlements that would ensure his name lasted through the ages such as Alexandria in Egypt.
The third reason for his greatness was the stories told about him. Sometimes these stories bordered on mythology littered with feats of heroism and and it served to paint the picture of a great young general who conquered the world with sheer guts and brilliance.
The fourth reason was that humanity decided that he was great by choosing to idolize him so much so that he became the role model of many. Even in villages in Africa and South America it is possible to find people named Alexander. Such is our admiration of him. This is why he is Great.
