History

pentagon [3]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The European presence in America spurred countless changes in the environment, negatively affecting native animals as well as people. The popularity of beaver-trimmed hats in Europe, coupled with Native Americans’ desire for European weapons, led to the overhunting of beavers in the Northeast. Soon, beavers were extinct in New England, New York, and other areas. With their loss came the loss of beaver ponds, which had served as habitats for fish as well as water sources for deer, moose, and other animals. Furthermore, Europeans introduced pigs, which they allowed to forage in forests and other wildlands. Pigs consumed the foods on which deer and other indigenous species depended, resulting in scarcity of the game native peoples had traditionally hunted.

European ideas about owning land as private property clashed with indigenous people's understanding of land use. Native Americans did not believe in private ownership of land; instead, they viewed land as a resource to be held in common for the benefit of the group. Colonizers erected fields, fences, and other means of demarcating private property. Indigenous people who moved seasonally to take advantage of natural resources now found areas off-limits, claimed by colonizers.

Answer:

For Jared Diamond, some countries became dominant due to geographic luck.

Explanation:

According to Jared Diamond, some countries in Asia and Europe were very fortunate geographically and that was what allowed these countries to become dominant. This is because these countries (like some of their colonies) were positioned in areas with great agricultural and technological potential. This caused these countries to prosper greatly and become the richest countries in the world.

How did senator Joseph McCarthy investigate domestic comunism
Vinil7 [7]
Ok, there is a lot for McCarthy. Since he was a Senator, form the late 1940's to the mid 1950's he went on a hunt for communists in the gov and in public life. He mostly did this because he wanted to ensure his political success. So during this time was the "Red Scare" aka when Americans were afraid of communism, so when he claimed he had a list of 205 communists the public went crazy and supported his crusade.
