D. FEMA

FEMA stands for the Federal Emergency Management Agency.  Today, it operates as an agency within the Department of Homeland Security.  It was originally created in 1979 as a way of coordinating the response when a disaster occurs and local and state agencies are not enough to manage the situation.  

FEMA didn't manage the Katrina situation as well as it should have, and emphasis on making FEMA more responsive has been in focus since then. The annual budget of FEMA in 2017 was around 15 billion dollars ... but Congress needed to appropriate additional funds (to a total of around 22 billion dollars) because of the massive impact of hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria inflicted so much damage.  Those hurricanes did a total of about 200 billion dollars in damage -- FEMA is only one source of aid in efforts to rebuild and repair after disasters hit.

Why did members of the Great Plains group have different homes at different times of the year?
bulgar [2K]
They followed the seasonal grazing and migration of buffalo because they survived on hunting. This was because the ground was not fertile enough for long-term crops and like today, there were tornadoes.

even though they were highly influenced by Egyptian culture, in what ways were the kushites able to hold on to their own politic
MrMuchimi
Here this might help you....
<span>Even though they were influenced by Egypt, this country had its own culture. They still had strong rulers who were females. They also had their own way of making pyramids
</span>
and this to....
 <span>The Kushites controlled the army once they had conquered Egypt and the Kushite king Piankhy became Pharaoh; the Kushites always provided the major portion of the army during a subsequent series of wars with Assyria for the control Syria. 

The Kushites were a warrior society, so that's how their soldiers were organized and fought, whereas Egyptian soldiers were professional regulars, a standing army. 

Egyptian military commanders were basically Kushite puppets, so there was some strain in the relationship between the Kushite part of the army and the essentially subject Egyptian contingent, as the Kushites always made sure they had the upper hand during the 90 years or so of Kushite rule.</span>
