In the development of the first civilizations what was gained for humankind and what was lost

History
1 answer:
Dimas [21]3 years ago
8 0
The word “first civilization” is usually applied to the earliest communities which showed the simultaneous characteristic of urbanization, specialization of labor, pottery-making, and agriculture.The gains were in population, consistent food supplies, technology, defensibility and arts.Compared to hunter-gatherer communities, the early civilization may have seen increasing discrimination, both between rich and poor and between genders. Greater organization would also lead to greater mechanisms of social control, and consequently some shrinking of personal freedom. Finally, population growth combined with fixed locations of population dense urban areas led to degradation of the natural environment and possibly desertification.

What was the wilmot proviso, and how did it impact the national debate over slavery?.
Mila [183]

David Wilmot was a Pennsylvania-born congressman who opposed slavery. His "proviso"—a clause tacked on to a number of legislation being debated in Congress—prohibited slavery in all of the new territory won from Mexico following the Mexican War. Although the proviso was well-liked in the North, it was vehemently opposed by the South and never became a part of the legislation.  It declared that slavery would be outlawed in any new area that the United States might take over from Mexico. The argument over whether slavery still exists in the West was rekindled.

Three reasons why the prohibition was repealed
Y_Kistochka [10]

Explanation:

Tens of thousands of people died because of prohibition-related violence and drinking unregulated booze. The big experiment came to an end in 1933 when the Twenty-first Amendment was ratified by 36 of the 48 states. The Twenty-first Amendment was deemed so necessary (and the Eighteenth so ineffective), it is the only Constitutional amendment ever passed to overturn a previous amendment. Hence, Prohibition was a terrible mistake.
