Answer:
Breaking Apart Monopolies and providing consumers with a greater variety in the quality, type, and price of goods.
Explanation:
The Sherman Anti-trust Act gave Congress the power to break up monopolies within the United States. These powers were used during the Gilded Age to split apart comapnies that dominated certain consumer and industrial markets.
The Populist Party wanted to push several issues at the time in the 1890s in the United States.
1. Free Silver--one of their biggest platforms was to change the currency to free silver to make it more affordable for the average person to use, instead of having money backed up by the gold standard.
2. Eight hour workday--They wanted to have workers and laborers be given an eight hour workday to give workers better working conditions than what they currently faced.
3. Income tax--They wanted to have a federal income tax (which later becomes the 16th Amendment) to have different taxes for people based on their income, or how much money they would make. So essentially, a very wealthy person would have higher taxes than a poor person.
4. Regulation of the railroad--They wanted the government to regulate the railroad instead of the big businesses regulating the railroad and coming up with the prices. The farmers especially felt as though it was not fair to allow the business owners to set the prices.
The Populist Party was essentially called the People's Party because they wanted to better represent and recognize the common people in government.
Answer:
Francis Bacon and René Descartes
The treaty of Versailles was a peace breaker (apparently), therefore, ending World War I. It brought Germany to great suffering; "...starving the children..." - I don't remember who that was by, but its important quote to know. That's only the partial speech, search up the speech and hopefully, you'll find it, otherwise ask your History teacher.
Nine nations created by the Treaty: Poland, Estonia, Finland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Yogoslavakia, Latvia, Estonia, and Austria.
Germany was deprived of 12.5 percent of population, 10 percent of the land, all of its colonies, 16 percent of its natural resources (steel, gold etc)...War Guilt Clause 231... These are some important notes to take. However, the allies did not cut off their oil supply, this, in turn, helped Germany perp for WWII.
If you're writing about Hitler's Rise to Power, you could also include the Policy of Appeasement, and ofc the Treaty of Versailles.
I hope this helped :)
