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.

madreJ [45]

I think that the best way to complete this analogy is option a.<span>non-fiction : fiction. There is nothing in the original pair to make an analogy to the other ones, and in both pairs you could say that the first part describes a real story and the other a fictional, not a real story. </span>

Will Mark Brainliest. Describe what leveling was and how was it used during the Han Dynasty.

konstantin123 [22]

Explanation:

The Han dynasty was governed by a centralized monarchy headed by an emperor and supported by an elaborate structure of imperial administration. The Han government was divided into three branches: the civil service (public administration), the military (defense), and the censorate (auditor).

Life in the city was difficult for the poor who lived in crowded houses and often went without food. Life in countryside was better for the peasants. They had to work hard, but they generally had food and shelter. Taxes were reduced during the Han Dynasty and people who tilled the soil were often respected.
