Answer: CARPETBAGGERS

Explanation:

During the postwar period in the South, the positions in the government were almost exclusively divided between white Northern Republicans, those men were labeled by their opposition as "Carpetbaggers". In essence, they were northerners who supposedly hurried to the Southern states with all their carpetbags to seize the political spoils and improve their economic and political situation. Numerous other carpetbaggers were educators, social workers, or missionaries motivated by a sincere missionary impulse.

The term “carpetbaggers” refers to Northerners who moved to the South after the Civil War, during Reconstruction. Many carpetbaggers were said to have moved South for their own financial and political gains.

¿Cómo es que el imperialismo sigue<br>afectando al mundo entero?​
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

Sí, el imperialismo sigue siendo una doctrina política y militar que aún tiene presencia en el mundo, sólo que con protagonistas distintos.

Explanation:

En el siglo 19 por ejemplo, el gran poder imperialista era el Reino Unido, que durante ese siglo logró formar el mayor imperio de la historia. Otros países de Europa como Francia o Países Bajos también tenían grandes imperios ultramarinos, mientras que los imperios de España y Portugal, antaño los más importantes, estaban en declive.

En el siglo 21, el imperialismo es protagonizado principalmente por Estados Unidos, el cual no cuenta con muchas colonias per sé, pero si con relaciones con otros estados soberanos que tienen elementos que se podrían definir como coloniales. Otras potencias como China y Rusia también han establecido relaciones de poder similares o iguales al colonialismo que caracteriza al imperialismo de todas las épocas.
