Answer:

<h2>False</h2><h3>Yes, there was great prosperity following World War II, but for the most part minorities were left out of that prosperity.</h3>

Explanation:

There was a post-war economic boom in the United States after World War II.  There was also significant population growth, which caused an expansion of cities into suburbs.  The prices of homes in suburbs were more affordable to middle class families, due to lower land prices and new building practices like tract housing. With the growth of the suburbs, improvement of roadways became a priority.  Highway improvement was also a priority of President Eisenhower for the sake of national security.   The Federal-Aid Highway Act passed in 1956 allocated $26 billion (in 1956 dollars!) to a monumental road-building effort that created the interstate highway system.  

The growth of the suburbs had a negative counter-effect, however. Suburban culture had the tendency to segregate white Americans in the suburbs from blacks in the cities' inner core neighborhoods, leading to racial segregation and inner city poverty issues that we're still dealing with today.

The correct answer is A)  The British lost twice as many troops as did the Patriots.

The Battle of Bunker Hill is considered a Patriot victory in that the British lost twice as many troops as did the Patriots.

One of the first battles of the Revolutionary War that was fought by the British troops and the Continental Army was the Battle of Bunker Hill. It was fought on June  17, 1775, in Breed's Hill. Although the English Army won the battle,  the Continental troops inflicted many casualties to the experimented British Army. That is why it was considered a Patriot "victory,"  because it represented a moral victory to the inexperienced Continental Army.

Answer:

ideology

Explanation:

Over the course of the 20th century, in Ireland, there was gradually declining of dependence on Britain. In 1937, the state was transformed into a republic, and in 1949, Ireland withdrew from the union with Great Britain. Opposite processes were observed in the north, until in 1972 the Northern Irish Parliament was dissolved. The fullness of power in the region passed into the hands of the British authorities; in fact, Northern Ireland was controlled directly from London. In the 20th century, in Northern Ireland, there was an increase in self-awareness of not only of Irish and British, but also of Catholics and Protestants, which shifted the conflict from a purely ethno-political to an ethno-confessional one, and worsened the identity situation on the island. In this regard, the corresponding right-wing parties and organizations gained great popularity among the local population.
