The Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 was the first law in the history of the United States which prohibited one ethnic group from entering the country, although it stated that it was for laborers only. It was a federal law and restricted the movement of free immigration for what was supposed to be ten years, although the act was extended until 1902. It was stated that the act was made to preserve American jobs for the Americans.
Answer:
Real and nominal inflation
Explanation:
When comparing the costs of inflation to society, it is important to distinguish between real and nominal inflation.
In economics nominal value is measured in terms of money, whereas real value is measured against goods or services. In contrast with a real value, a nominal value has not been adjusted for inflation, and so changes in nominal value reflect at least in part the effect of inflation.
Ancient Grecian Government
Ancient Greece was the beginning of democracy. In 507 BC Cleisthenes introduced a new form of government and principle which was "rule by the people" and leaders were elected.
This system was divided into three groups: writers of the laws, a council of representatives from each tribe, and courts where citizens argued cases before randomly-selected jurors.
Ancient Roman Government
Roman government went through many changes during its existence including city state, kingdom, republic, and imperial periods. Its main principle was that of "republic" in which leaders were elected and only for a limited time.
Like the Greeks, the Republican Roman government had three separate branches of government but they operated a little bit differently: legislative (makes laws) with the Senate and assemblies, executive (enforces laws) led by two consuls, and judicial (interprets laws) with eight judges.
<u>Indeed, President Wilson was unsatisfied with settlement from the Central Powers and the signature of the Treaty of Versailles, beyond most of his fourteen points were accepted and included in the final document. He had territorial, economic and military reasons for that:</u>
<u>1. Territorial reasons:</u> he disagreed with Great Britain and France imperialist intentions and he was angry at the fact that some Germany's and Ottoman Empire's colonies passed to Great Britain and France (Alsace-Lorraine, Germany’s overseas colonies, Iraq, Palestine, Syria, Lebanon), as territories in mandates.
<u>2. Economical reasons</u>: Wilson also wanted economic reparations to be given to France as France owed important money to the United States at that time.
<u>3. Military reasons:</u> According to the Treaty, the German army was to be reduced to 100,000 soldiers, armaments sufficient for such army and, to prevent the reserves reconstruction, officers were to serve for twenty-five years and men for twelve. However, President Wilson's concern was that only Germany was forced to disarmament and other countries were not treated the same way.
