The Inca culture was one of the most developed in pre-Columbian America. Among their achievements, was their architectural ability. Inca structures were made of stone that fit together, with extraordinary stability. The buildings have survived for centuries, with no use of mortar, in areas that are prone to earthquakes and volcanic activity.

The Inca also developed calendars based on astronomical observations. Astronomers understood equinoxes, solstices and zenith passages. Numerical information, particularly for administration, was stored in <em>quipu</em> strings.

In terms of art, Inca ceramics were highly advanced, although most of their silver and gold work was melted down by the Spaniards.  

They were also advanced in medicine, performing skull surgeries successfully and with high survival rates.

Viktor [21]
While you didn't write down any major possible dieties, it's most likely that such a scholar would fall under a hinduistic religious system.  Hinduistic scholars would think that multiple gods were once required for the world to be created - this would be also why the hinduistic religious system is a very probable answer.

Laws that are overly broad in their reach might have a chilling effect on the exercise of freedom of expression.​
Dmitry [639]
This is true.

For example, this is the case with hate speech laws. Since it is not precisely defined or understood what hate speech actually constitutes, many and no things at the same time can be considered to be hate speech, so it can be used politically to reduce the freedom of expression and the rights given to people by the first amendment.

Explain the causes and effects of the Indian Removal Act and the Trail of Tears.
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

Cause: There was also some argument that the Native Americans may raid nearby plantations, causing many of the farmers to protest their presence. Eventually, president Andrew Jackson, decided to pass the Indian removal acts in 1830, which allowed him to move the Indians west. Since Andrew Jackson had grown up on a plantation where Indian raids were common, he had a negative view of them, saying that "they are inferior to whites". The president had very little problem with sending them away, and in 1838 put the trail of tears into action.

Effect: One major effect is that the Native American population severely decreased. While on the Trail of Tears, many Native Americans endured hypothermia, starvation, and sickness. More than 4,000 natives died due to these conditions, leaving the Native American population hanging by a thread. The other major effect is that since there was only a handful of Indians that survived the horrible journey, the culture quickly became, and still is today, on the verge of extinction.
