Answer:

Americans guarded imperialistic lead by: Claiming that it was their obligation. Americans and Europeans both attested that it was their obligation as preferable races over hoist, culturally assimilate and Christianize nearby social orders. This was known as the White Mans Burden and relied upon the musings of social Darwinism.

Answer:

Before imperialism there was isolationism, which according to page 608 of the textbook was “the belief that America should stand apart, stay out of foreign wars, and avoid excessive political or economic involvement in foreign affairs”. This worked until 1846 when the US went to war with Mexico and gained four new states. With this new sense of power people begin to lean towards imperialism. Imperialism is “the policy or action by which one country controls another country or territory”. In 1893 there was an economic depression that led to an oversupply of manufactured goods that weren’t moving in America. In order to move these goods, businessman begin looking abroad. They believed that America needed to join the imperial competition and many military and political leaders agreed. A naval officer named Alfred Mahan published a book in which he wrote that in order for America to be a great world power we will need a great navy. This new imperial rule for the for America seemed to be justified by the idea of social Darwinism, which is basically just survival of the fittest.

Which aspects of today’s Halloween practices are Christian in origin in which are pagan
Finger [1]

Answer:

The history of the holiday dates back to the pagan beliefs of the Celts; however, Western Christians on this day established a large and joyful holiday - “All Saints Day.” This choice, of course, was not accidental. It is associated with the name of the first Irish Christian who was not afraid to speak out against the forces of darkness in those days when, according to the beliefs of his people, evil received particular power. This man was St. Patrick.

Halloween mythology is rooted in Celtic paganism. In their calendar, on this day, theer is the festival Samhain. Julius Caesar, waging wars in Gaul, commenting on some Celtic religious ideas, noted that on Samhain day, a door between worlds opened and the gods freely entered the space of human life. The road was open both ways. However, after preaching of St. Patrick, in about half a century, Ireland, from a country where wild sacrifice reigned, turned into an “island of scientists and saints." People ceased to be afraid of “intruders” from the other world. Celtic society was pleased to be free from the dubious “cultural heritage” of paganism, which required murder and terrifying. Namely on this day Celtic Christians in the 8th century began to celebrate the memory of all saints.

Which event helped transfer power from the West to the East? A. the development of a unique code of law for the Byzantine Empire
Daniel [21]

Answer:

B. the shift of the Roman Empire's capital from Rome to Constantinople

Explanation:

The Western Roman Empire had been on the decline, while the Eastern Roman Empire has been on the rise. Being more powerful and more influential, the capital of the Roman Empire shifted in the Eastern part of it. Constantinople became the capital of the Roman Empire in 330 AD. This led to significant transfer of power toward the East, and big loss of power in the West. The East prospered more and more and became the strongest power in every sense in the region. The West on the other side was crumbling, little by little losing its political, economic, and military power, eventually resulting in its fall.

For which purpose did some Renaissance artists use corpses?
sesenic [268]
Church restrictions on bodies: it was sinful for a person to be without clothing in front of an artist. To create realistic paintings, corpses were used. 

Corpses were used as a model for the human body. Renaissance painters strove for realism and the corpse provided a realistic human image. An alive person would not be able to pose, in particular without clothing, for a painter. This would have been sinful.
