The correct answer is A.

<em>The Northern Securities Company</em> was formed in the year 1901 in the state of New Jersey. It was the merging of holdings of the following railroad companies: Northern Pacific Railway, Great Northern Railway, Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad.

<em>This merger created a monopoly that monopolized the railway traffic between Chicago and the Northwest.</em>

President Roosevelt, fearing restraint of trade and competition, sued the company in 1902 under the Sherman Antitrust Act ( this acts regulated the competition among enterprises).

The government won the case and the company was dissolved. The three railroad companies started to operate individually again.

american colonists' strong principles were the main reason they decided to declare their independence from britain.
Deffense [45]
The answer is, To argue for, there's the obvious, which is that the colonists didn't like their lack of voice within British Parliament. They also didn't like how Britain was treating other colonies, what would become Canada for instance, with similar laws and codes seen in the US colonies. You could also argue that it was a more financial decision, as the taxes placed upon the colonies and the restrictions on trade were hurting American businesses. Honestly, an argument combining the two would probably be more rounded.

What did Executive Order 9066 allow for? Question 2 options: The Secretary of War to determine which areas are military zones an
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer: In the days after the Pearl Harbor attack by the Japanese on December 7, 1941, suspicion fell on Japanese American communities in the western United States. The U.S. Department of the Treasury froze the assets of all citizens and resident aliens who were born in Japan, and the Department of Justice arrested some 1,500 religious and community leaders as potentially dangerous enemy aliens. Because many of the largest populations of Japanese Americans were in close proximity to vital war assets along the Pacific coast, U.S. military commanders petitioned Secretary of War Henry Stimson to intervene. The result was Roosevelt’s Executive Order 9066.

Explanation: In 1948 Pres. Harry S. Truman signed the Evacuation Claims Act, which gave internees the opportunity to submit claims for property lost as a result of relocation. Pres. Gerald Ford formally rescinded Executive Order 9066 on February 16, 1976. In 1988 Congress passed the Civil Liberties Act, which stated that a “grave injustice” had been done to Japanese American citizens and resident aliens during World War II. It also established a fund that paid some $1.6 billion in reparations to formerly interned Japanese Americans or their heirs.
