Give the advantges and disadvantges of nationalism and military preparedenss
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

Nationalism advantages - promotes sense of national identity, unifies people

Nationalism disadvantages - conflicts with views of others, diminishes rights of others

Military preparedness advantages - deters/defeats hostile aggression, gives people a sense of safety

Military preparedness disadvantages - seen as threatening, could cause a war draft

Explanation:

Nationalism is basically when a country unifies for a common goal. It could be through use of symbols, too. For example, everyday in school we stand and say the Pledge of Allegiance together. However, sometimes a country can discriminate against a group of ethnic people if the majority doesn't like them.

Military preparedness is as the name says: being ready for war and having a strong military. These are good things and can make people feel safe. However, a potentially opposing country could see this as a challenge which is could be a cause of war.

What were three important actions taken by the president Washington and Congress
SCORPION-xisa [38]
There are many important actions taken by Washington together with the first congress, but we'll provide you with three of them as the question requests so: 1. Passing the first ten Amendments of the Constitution (Bill of Rights). There weren't proper constitutional provisions protecting the citizens' rights and liberties until the actual ratification of these 10 first Amendments in Dec 15, 1791; it was through the efforts of Madison, Washington and the First Congress that they came to be. 2. Planning the building of the first centralized US Bank. In order to establish financial order and security in the newly formed United States, the Secretary of Treasury Hamilton was given the lead position in building the "First Bank of the United States"; a supported and successful project by Washington and the First Congress. 3. Setting up the court system and precedents. The First Congress was responsible of applying and establishing further details of a new juridical system, as explained in the Judiciary Act 1789; it mainly established a Supreme Court, with inferior courts, too, based on precedents (previously decided cases as reliable basis).
