The Job Corps is a program established by the United States Department of Labor. It offers free education and vocational training to young men and women and provides them with specific job opportunities.

The Job Corps were a part of the national war on poverty in the 1960's. The Economic Opportunity Act of 1964 was President Johnson's response to increasing unemployment and rising poverty in America.

The Job Corps offer career paths, career technical training, various educational and vocational opportunities.

As a result of introducing this program, crime rate among the poor lowered and many were offered better-paid jobs.

What contributions did these two pharaohs make in the categories listed in the chart?
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

The most powerful person in ancient Egypt was the pharaoh. The pharaoh was the political and religious leader of the Egyptian people, holding the titles: 'Lord of the Two Lands' and 'High Priest of Every Temple'. He owned all of the land, made laws, collected taxes, and defended Egypt against foreigners. The pharaohs of the New Kingdom used their wealth to build massive temples to the gods. The city of Thebes continued to be the cultural center of the empire. The Temple of Luxor was built at Thebes and grand additions were made to the Temple of Karnak. The unity and strength which characterized the 18th and 19th Dynasties steadily was lost during the 20th. The New Kingdom ended when the priests of Amun grew strong enough to assert their power at Thebes and divide the country between their rule and the pharaoh's at the city of Per-Ramesses.
