The late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries were times of
crisis for Russia. Not only did technology and industry continue to
develop more rapidly in the West, but also new, dynamic, competitive
great powers appeared on the world scene: Otto von Bismarck united
Germany in the 1860s, the post-Civil War United States
grew in size and
strength, and a modernized Japan emerged from the Meiji Restoration of
1868. Although Russia was an expanding regional giant in Central Asia,
bordering the Ottoman, Persian, British Indian, and Chinese empires, it
could not generate enough capital to support rapid industrial
development
The United States sent troops to Vietnam in the 1860's is b) False. The United States entered the war in Vietnam on March 8, 1965. However, prior to this there had already been American activity on the ground, such as some naval movement, bombing of North Vietnam and military advisers on the ground in large numbers. By the middle of the year of 1965 direct combat had commenced.
1) New immigrants came to the United States for several different reasons. This includes economic opportunities, the ability to practice their religion without persecution, and to escape problems in Europe (example- Ireland and the potato famine).
2) Individuals known as nativists wanted to stop immigration because they were scared that new immigrants would take jobs from American workers. This was partially true, in the sense that immigrants would often work for less pay due to their need to get a job immediately.
3) Urbanization, the process in which people move to the city, occured during this time due to the increased amount of factory jobs available for citizens. Instead of living out on the countryside and being self sufficient, individuals could now work in factories, make a guaranteed salary, and buy the items they need in order to survive.
4) Jacob Riis including pictures in his famous book <em>How the other half lives</em> in order to show Americans how immigrants and poor individuals in big cities lived. These conditions were often disgusting, with small unsanitary rooms were numerous people lived. The ultimate goal was to cause Americans to demand change of this type of living situation.
A nation should go to war when it fells threatened and it’s people are getting killed. Just take this for example when the Louisiana got sanked by a German u- boat American public opinion was going high.
Yes war shapes future in foreign policy because when American soldiers got back from European battle fields they were so scared they never wanted to leave the United States after the War until World war 2. Also trading borders were locked until after the war with the treaty of Versailles, Wilson 14 points allowed trading with foreign county’s.
keep in mind I’m in the 8 th grade and taking 10th grade history.
On the day of the uprising, Nat Turner led a slave rebellion. They killed 55-60 people.
