Will the faces of my rushmore wear away in my lifetime

History

Definitely not. Mount Rushmore is granite so it erodes roughly 1 inch every 10,000 years. In 500,000 years it is predicted that the face would lose some of their definition, but Mount Rushmore could last for 7 MILLION years

Does Bolivar's letter reveal concern for the economic and social condition of South America's nonwhite population? What are some
9966 [12]

Simon Bolivar's most famous piece of writing, was a letter he wrote while exiled in Jamaica after the Spanish forces defeated him in Caracas.

In the "Jamaica Letter", Bolivar expresses both <u>philosophical and political ideals</u> he had for Latin Americans. He hoped to find a way to create a unified Pan-American nation, but saw how difficult it would be to maintain such a large territory and integrate the diverse cultures and demographics of each region.

Montesquieu was a big influence on him, specially for his idea that "<u>the best government is that which best agrees with the humor of the people in whose favor it is established</u>". Bolivar saw the inexperience of Latin America and doubted they could govern themselves without falling into a tyranny or suffering the damages of mob-mentality, which is why he seeked support from Britan, which he regarded as a leading liberal force.

Bolivar was torn between his ideals of freedom, integration and unity for Latin America; and his distrust in the capabilities to achieve these goals, considering that a dictatorship (although conflictuous with his beliefs) might be more a more practical way to go in this situation.

As a <u>consequence of his controversial attitudes</u>, the British end up denying support to Bolivar, who is then forced to conduct an army on his own. He'd later go on to liberate his people from Spanish monarchy and become a dictator himself.


Hope this helps!

Napoleon and Psychological Warfare”—What themes did Napoleon use to play on the emotions of his troops and inspire them to great
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

He put out expectations and gave the men self-value.   He also put himself at risk of being killed.

Explanation:

At the siege of Toulon, when his artillery men were being bombarded hard by Allied troops, he renamed his battery, "The Battery of Men Without Fear."  The n just like that, his men returned fighting with extra morale.  Napoleon also charged and was stabbed at the battle of Toulon, nearly ending his life, but jaw-dropping morale boost for his men.  In the campaigns of Italy, he was nearly cut down by cannon fire and was covered in mud at Arcole.  It motivated his men to do an almost suicidal charge across the bridge, and they did win that battle, although taking heavy losses, they took 4000 men prisoner.  Before the invasion of Italy happened, he motivated his men with speeches before they marched.  These are just of Napoleon's examples of incerasing his men's morale, no wonder they would die for him, and stay loyal to him to the end.  Except Bernadotte that traitor.

The exclusionary rule clarifies the protections of which constitutional amendment?
Andreas93 [3]
The correct answer is the fourth amendment

The exclusionary rule is the idea that people cannot be illegally searched or have their property seized by the police and if that happens then it's illegal and those seized items will not be usable in the court of law when defending the accused person. It is based in the fourth amendment but it has many connections to others like the fifth and the sixth.
