Define colonialism. B. Identify a major colonizer of the African continent. C. Describe the concept of a superimposed boundary.
Mrrafil [7]

<em>A. and B. Colonialism is a practice or policy through which one country imposes itself over another, uses it economically, sets its forces there, and moves in settlers. Such country in Africa was France.</em>

<em />

Explanation:

The colonialism is a practice or policy when a country that is powerful economically and has strong military attacks another country, manages to conquer it, sets its own institutions, military presence, moves in settlers, and exploits the area economically. While this process is mostly used for the period from the 15th to the early 20th century, in fact it has been present since the antique period.

One of the regions that was entirely colonized was Africa. The European countries, at the peak of their power, managed to get large portions of the continent for themselves and use them for their development. Such country was France, which managed to colonize lot of Western, Central, and Northern Africa.

<em>C. and D. Superimposed boundary is a boundary set by outside forces, and the constant conflicts have been one of the major political consequences because of it.</em>

Explanation:

There are multiple different types of boundaries, and they vary from region to region. One of those types is the superimposed boundary. This boundary type basically has been set by outside forces, usually former colonists, and the people of the area had no say in it whatsoever. This has largely been the case in Africa.

The boundaries in Africa are almost entirely of this type. This has caused lot of problems, as people from different ethnic and religious backgrounds have been put in the same boundary, despite having ''bad blood'' between them traditionally. One political consequence of this has been the terrorizing of some groups of people because of their ethnic or religious background, leading to civil wars and genocides.

<em>E. A cultural consequence has been the internal divisions in the countries.</em>

Explanation:

The superimposed boundaries have caused much more problems than solutions. Because the people's will has not been respected when the boundaries have been imposed, but instead they were set by the will of the former colonizers, the countries suffer badly to this day.

There are many cultural consequences from this, one of which is the internal division based on the culture. Nigeria is an excellent example. Being a country with hundreds of religions, languages, and cultures in general, the people have different views, practice different things, and often can not even understand each other because they speak different languages. The end result has been formation of territories where only people of a particular group are allowed, while the others are treated violently, so the country has become highly divided because of cultural differences, and highly unsafe.

<em>F. and G. A landlocked African country is Chad, and the problems in development come not just from its own policies, but also because it is heavily dependent on its neighbors.</em>

<em />

Explanation:

There are multiple countries in Africa that are landlocked, and all of them, except for one (in the past decade) have huge problems, especially when it comes to developing their economies. Such country is Chad, which is a very large country in Central Africa.

Chad is surrounded by several countries that have access to the sea, so while that may seem helpful, it actually isn't in practice. Because Chad doesn't have access to sea it is heavily dependent on its neighbors, which gives them huge advantage when it comes to politics and negotiations.

In order for Chad to export anything, it has to go through the neighboring countries, so they use this and take Chad's resources for extremely low compensation, thus improving their economies, and also resell them for higher prices. If Chad doesn't want to obey to the rules set by its neighbors, they can simply shut the borders, so Chad will immediately suffer and will be left without basic means for functioning.

How did Jackie Robinson earned and gain respect from fans and his teammates
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

Jackie Robinson is remembered as the man who broke the color barrier in major league baseball and was the first African American inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame (1962). His outstanding career with the Brooklyn Dodgers and his dignity in facing the insults and threats that were hurled at him broke down the racial barriers in "America’s Pastime" and opened the way for black players who followed. In his later years he worked as a business executive and was a spokesperson for civil rights, black athletes and other causes. Although Robinson is often called the first black player in the major leagues, Moses Fleetwood "Fleet" Walker, a catcher for the Toledo Blue Stockings of the American Association in 1884, had an Irish father and African American mother who had been a slave. Walker’s brief career, however, did not lead to additional black baseball players in the major leagues; Robinson’s did.

Born Jack Roosevelt Robinson on January 31, 1919, in Cairo, Georgia, the future baseball great was the grandson of a slave and the fifth child of a sharecropper. His brother Mack would win a Silver Medal in the 200-meter dash at the 1936 Summer Olympics in Berlin, finishing behind Jesse Owens.The children  were raised by their mother in a white, middle-class neighborhood in Pasadena, California, after his father deserted the family.

At John Muir High School, he exhibited remarkable versatility as an athlete, playing on the baseball, football, basketball and track teams. His athletic prowess brought him college scholarships, first to Pasadena Junior College and then to the University of California at Los Angeles; the latter school was founded the same year he was born. At UCLA, he became the first and only player ever to letter in four different sports and won All-American honors as a football player. Twice in basketball he led the Pacific Coast Conference Southern Division in scoring. On the track team, he won PCC and NCAA broad jump competitions. Financial hardships forced him to leave UCLA just shy of graduating, and for a short time he played semi-professional football with the Honolulu Bears, a career that ended when America entered World War II. He had left Pearl Harbor, bound for the U.S. mainland, two days before the Japanese attacked Pearl.

Robinson joined the U.S. Army and was promoted to second lieutenant but never saw combat. While stationed in Texas he refused to move to the back of a military bus and was courtmartialed, though he was eventually acquitted and was honorably discharged in 1944.

Three examples of traffic laws are the following;

- traffic lights - traffic lights are provided in order for drivers to know when to stop or go by which this will prevent accidents to occur especially if there is an intersecting road ahead and to form a traffic overflow
