History

One of the most important causes for the fall of the Maya was the presence of widespread drought in the region. Mayan religion depicts the leader of a city-state as having a direct connection to the gods and, as such, that leader is responsible for the well-being of the people. However, a long period of drought strained this concept of kingship. Instead of being able to provide, leaders found their people starving due to drought and the people began to doubt and question their leaders' rule. In that sense, the droughts in Mesoamerica were the prime cause of the civil strife that impacted the fall of the Mayan city-states.

Create a written report or media presentation about the U.S. government under the Articles of Confederation.
max2010maxim [7]
The Continental Congress adopted the Articles of Confederation, the first constitution of the United States, on November 15, 1777, but the states did not ratify them until March 1, 1781. The Articles created a loose confederation of sovereign states and a weak central government, leaving most of the power with the state governments. Once peace removed the rationale of wartime necessity the weaknesses of the 1777 Articles of Confederation became increasingly apparent. Divisions among the states and even local rebellions threatened to destroy the fruits of the Revolution. Nationalists, led by James Madison, George Washington, Alexander Hamilton, John Jay, and James Wilson, almost immediately began working toward strengthening the federal government. They turned a series of regional commercial conferences into a national constitutional convention at Philadelphia in 1787.

Do you think the Panama Canal was worth the cost in terms of money spent and lives lost
lubasha [3.4K]
Even though the Panama Canal is considered to be one of the most prominent engineering marvels of the world, it is literally built on many losses. During building the Canal more than 25,000 people died, mostly because of disease. Over 20,000 people died when the French set a hope to build the canal, and  5,000 died when the Americans did it successfully. It is a really huge sacrifice.
