What did Adams hope to accomplish by sending diplomats to france?

History
1 answer:
Bess [88]3 years ago
5 0
A commission was sent to France in 1797 to discuss the disputes that had arisen out of the U.S.'s refusal to honor the Franco-American Treaty of 1778. President Adams had also criticized the French Revolution, so France began to break off relations with the United States. Adams sent delegates to France to meet with French Foreign Minister Talleyrand in the hopes of working things out. Talleyrand's three agents told the American delegates that they could meet with Talleyrand only in exchange for a very large bribe. The Americans did not pay the bribe, and in 1798 Adams made the incident public, substituting the letters "X, Y and Z" for the names of the three French agents in his report to Congress.

How did the constitutional convention lead to the civil war?
bezimeni [28]

The Compromise of 1850 and the Kansas-Nebraska Act also worked to obtain similar results. When the newly founded Republican Party (the first real anti-slavery party) won its first election in 1860 with Abraham Lincoln, the South feared that the government would infringe on its rights and interests, which led to secession, and then the Civil War.

Need help with literature!!
Arada [10]

- Which characters are guessing about the behaviors of others in the first act?

- Horatio is guessing about the behavior of the soldiers (Bernardo and Francisco). he believes they are imagining things about seeing a ghost.

- Queen Gertrude is guessing that her son Hamlet is only depressed bout his father's dead.

- Hamlet is guessing that all the public displays of mourning by Claudius are fake manifestations of emotion and that he only cares about the power of being King of Denmark and the pleasure of having taken Queen Gertrude as his wife. Hamlet is also guessing that his mother does not care about King Hamlet's death and is only happy to have a new husband share her bed. Furthermore, Hamlet is initially guessing about his own grief. Something bothers him enormously about the whole situation. He distrusts Claudius viscerally yet he is also uncertain of his own thoughts and emotions and even contemplates suicide. When he meets the Ghost he does not immediately accept the Ghost's accusation but decides to put King Claudius under surveillance and find out the truth.

- Claudius is guessing about Hamlet's moroseness as just being infantile emotional affectation.

- Laertes is guessing about Hamlet's affection for Ophelia to be just plain lust disguised as love.

- Polonius also thinks that Hamlet's feelings for Ophelia are only physical desire and considers that Ophelia's feelings for Hamlet are only childlish illusions.

- how are the characters testing each other?

- Horatio submits the soldiers to the production of actual evidence. He only believes them when he sees the Ghost himself. He even has the soldiers attack the ghost with spears to see if it is really a ghost.

- Being tested by Horatio, the soldiers ask him to test the Ghost since they respect him for being a scholar and they want him to use his knowledge to make sure what they have seen is not a figment of their imagination.

- Hamlet decides, after speaking with the Ghost, to test Claudius by feigning madness induced by grief, until he is able to prove or disprove the Ghost's accusations.

The entire act is a warning about how appearances can be deceiving.

Why is it the city of Mecca important in Muslim tradition?
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

It is largely because of Mecca and Medina, which are deemed to be sacred cities, cherished by a billion Muslims across the globe. Mecca is home of the Kaabah situated in Masjidul Haram. It is a cubical building, which was initially built by Prophet Ibrahim, and his son, Ismaeel.

Explanation:

It is the holiest of Muslim cities. Muhammad, the founder of Islam, was born in Mecca, and it is toward this religious centre that Muslims turn five times daily in prayer (see qiblah). All devout and able Muslims attempt a hajj (pilgrimage) to Mecca at least once in their lifetime.
