<span>Most likely the United States House of Representatives had not approved a single cent with which to pay for it.

</span>"Alaska is nothing but a wasteland of glaciers and polar bears" is wrong 100%<span> 
</span><span>The U.S. agreed to purchase Alaska from the Russians for $7.2 million, only 2.5 cents an acre, though Congress had yet to approve a single cent for the deal. Few Americans, viewed Alaska as a bargain. The press mocked the purchase as "Seward's Folly," and "Seward's Icebox." But nearly one year later, and after much political wrangling, the U.S. Treasury finally wrote the check. And Alaska became a U.S. territory.<span>

Union vs Confederacy
disa [49]

Answer:

Read the below

Explanation:

The union was industrial as they had tons of factories producing war supplies and the Confedracy was Agricultural since they used slaves to do all the work and the Union had the largest cities as they owned New York city, Philiedlphia etc, the Union had the larger army as they had the larger population, the Union had the larger Navy as they were the ones to use Iron Clads to blockade the South, they both were Americans and wanted the better for America ( as they see it ) They both wanted to isolate themselves from the rest of the world, and they both wanted to restore the Union under there control. The southern states depended on the slaves and weren't just gonna let them go just cause the unions says so, and the Union wants to preserve the union and make it slave free. Union values democracy and freedom for all, as the South values White supremacy, the purpose of the war was really to see if slavery exists in the United states of america or not.

Which statement best compares the ideas of Martin Luther to the ideas of the Catholic Church in the 1500s?
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

Right choice:

Luther taught that salvation came from faith alone, while the Church taught that both faith and good works could bring about salvation.

Explanation:

Martin Luther was a priest and theologian in Wittenberg, Germany. In his times, one of the usual practices of the Roman Catholic Church was to issue papal bulls for a payment that would absolve the person from his or her sins. This was scandalous to the eyes of Luther. Besides, abuses and immoral behavior by priests and bishops, often too attached to worldy possessions and pleasures, was not uncommon. This led Luther to publish his 95 thesis on the doors of the Wittenberg seminar where he taught, the start of Reformation and Protestantism in Europe. The Lutheran creed says that human salvation is an act of the grace of God and can be attained through faith only; Christians can establish a direct communication with God, not through intermediaries (Catholic priests); the ultimate authority on religious issues is the Bible, the Holy Scriptures, not the interpretation and dogmas of the Vatican.

How did the tiananmen square massacre impact china
Nostrana [21]

Remembering Tiananmen in Hong Kong has been viewed as an act of defiance for years, and it has become even more so now that the city’s own democratic future has come under threat. In the run-up to the 30th anniversary, demonstrators marched through the semi-autonomous enclave’s financial district chanting, “justice will prevail” and toting “support freedom” umbrellas. “In China, [people] can’t say anything against the government,” says Au Wai Sze, a nurse in Hong Kong who marched along with her 15-year-old daughter. “So while we in Hong Kong can still speak [out], we must represent the voice of the Chinese people and remind the world of this injustice.” Remembering Tiananmen in Hong Kong has been viewed as an act of defiance for years, and it has become even more so now that the city’s own democratic future has come under threat.

For all its power, China’s government is still deeply paranoid. Today, the regime is “stronger on the surface than at any time since the height of Mao’s power, but also more brittle,” Andrew Nathan, a professor of political science at Columbia University, wrote in Foreign Affairs. The people’s loyalty is predicated on wealth accumulation, which will be difficult to sustain. A sputtering economy, widespread environmental pollution, rampant corruption and soaring inequality have all fed public anxieties about Xi’s ability to continue fulfilling the prosperity-for-loyalty bargain.
