A monopoly is a great thing for a company and a terrible thing for a customer. With a monopoly, a company exercises great control over prices of a commodity, as the company owns most, if not all of the commodity. 
The government breaks up monopolies. For instance, Bell Telecommunications was broken up and absorbed by AT&T and Verizon.

A monopoly is the term for a company that controls all types of trade in a particular market. A monopoly can regulate the prices due to the fact that it has no competition. For example, it could sell an apple for $5 instead of 50¢. The buyer would then have to purchase the $5 apple because there are no other companies that sell the same product.

Which physical feature would make the journey from Babylon to Jerusalem a difficult task​
aniked [119]

The space between Babylon and Jerusalem is a very inhospitable one. Everything is covered with desert, the Syrian Desert to be more specific. It is a very dry, very hot area, with very little water only on few spots. There are sand storms that are very dangerous. This makes this area very dangerous for traveling, so the people mostly avoided traveling through it in order to not end up lost or dead in it. The travelling between these two cities was very limited, and it was mostly done either by circling around this desert, or through very well organized expeditions.

Answer 1. He said that over 90 years had passed since the emancipation proclamation and that he believed in gradualism.

Answer 2. Autherine Lucy was expelled from the University of Alabama where she had previously been enrolled because the board of trustees didn't want her due to her race.
