Answer:

The Scramble of Africa was the invasion, territorial division, colonization and the annexation of African territories during the period of the New Imperialism, between the 1880s and the beginning of the First World War, which involved France, Germany, United Kingdom, Italy, Portugal, Belgium and Spain, justified in different claims of these countries.

The second half of the nineteenth century, in the year 1877, saw the transition from "informal" imperialism that exercised control through military influence and from economic domination to that of direct domination. Attempts to mediate imperial competition, just as the Berlin Conference (1884 - 1885) between the British Empire, the Third French Republic and the German Empire could not definitively establish the claims of each of the powers involved. These disputes over Africa were among the main factors that originated the First World War.

Cracking down on dissent during World War I was part of what larger governmental goal in the United States?seizing absolute powe
madam [21]

The larger goal was uniting Americans around the war effort.

Cracking down on dissent would be a negative action in support of the larger, positive goal the government sought. The government wanted a fully united public in support of the war, and so it put out the message that that freedom of speech might have its limits in times of war.

The value of enslaved African American’s increased during and after the revolutionary war as they fought in the war.

What might happen if our country returned to a system of bartering
yan [13]

Answer:

Hope this helps :)

Explanation:

Human partnerships will be strengthened: Since bartering does not necessarily result in a flawless trade, people must trust one another to keep their word as conditions change. Since goods are not as easily divisible as property, you will have to take part of your payment now and part later. Bartering would also make more of our company public so we'd have to share both our needs and our abilities, allowing our bartering group to get to know us better.
