Answer: Popular Vote meant that the each person would directly vote to select a certain President. Since Northern States had more population, the results would always be skewed in the favor

In effect, this would mean that larger and more populous States of the North would most likely determine the outcome of any election.

Explanation: Southern States comprised of large swathes of land and a majority of the population being farmers.

An electoral college is a system devised to ensure that all States in the union have an equal say in the kind of President they want to select.

Hence, when people vote in the election, they don't directly elect a President, instead electing a local representative who then elects a President on their behalf.

This provided, the smaller states with smaller population an equal say in how the national governement would be run.

The First Americans A once connected Siberia and Alaska.​
NeX [460]

Tens of thousands of years ago, the first Americans crossed a historic land link that connected Siberia in Russia to Alaska.

Native Americans, Canadian First Nations, and Alaska Natives are all considered to be Indigenous Americans. For many years, archaeologists believed that the Clovis people, who are believed to have arrived in the New World some 13,000 years ago from northern Asia, were the first Americans. However, recent archeological discoveries have shown that humans arrived in the Americas thousands of years earlier. These findings have caused people to reevaluate these explorers' origins, dates of arrival, and routes into the New World, along with genetic and geological insights.

The first Americans and their offspring were resourceful explorers who populated the largest area of land ever inhabited by mankind. They braved the unknown and expertly adapted to a huge variety of environments on two continents.

One major area of the progress during Renaissance is geographical discovery. Discuss.(Please write long and)​
Contact [7]

The Renaissance, which means "rebirth" in French, typically refers to a period in European history from  A.D. 1400 to A.D. 1600. Many historians, however, assert that it started earlier or ended later, depending on the country. It bridged the periods of the Middle Ages and modern history, and, depending on the country, overlaps with the Early Modern, Elizabethan and Restoration periods. The Renaissance is most closely associated with Italy, where it began in the 14th century, though countries such as Germany, England and France went through many of the same cultural changes and phenomena.

However, while the Renaissance brought about some positive changes for Europe, the geographical exploration that flourished during this time led to devastation for the people of the Western Hemisphere as European conquest and colonization brought plagues and slavery to the Indigenous people living there. In Africa, it also brought about the birth of the trans-Atlantic slave trade that saw Black people shipped from Africa to the Western Hemisphere to work as slaves on European colonies.

"Renaissance" comes from the French word for "rebirth." According to the City University of New York at Brooklyn, intense interest in and learning about classical antiquity was "reborn" after the Middle Ages, in which classical philosophy was largely ignored or forgotten. Renaissance thinkers considered the Middle Ages to have been a period of cultural decline. They sought to revitalize their culture through re-emphasizing classical texts and philosophies. They expanded and interpreted them, creating their own style of art, philosophy and scientific inquiry. Some major developments of the Renaissance include astronomy, humanist philosophy, the printing press, vernacular language in writing, painting and sculpture technique, world exploration and, in the late Renaissance, Shakespeare's works.
