There was a 20% chance that you would be employed as a prostitute if you were a woman in the "Old American West”.  

In the Old American West, the mining population was composed of 95% young and male people so a high demand during that time was female companionship. Saloons also doubled as a brothel during this time.

igomit [66]

Answer:

Before the end of the British Mandate in Palestine, the United Nations passed a resolution to create two states in that territory, one Arab state and a Jewish state. Jews accepted the resolution and proclaimed the state of Israel in 1948.

Why did Thomas Jefferson referred to the election of 1800 as the revolution of 1800
Soloha48 [4]

Well,

Thomas Jefferson called his election "the Revolution of 1800" because it marked the first time that power in America passed from one party to another.

He promised to govern as he felt the Founders intended, based on decentralized government and trust in the people to make the right decisions for themselves. Basically, the observers have regarded Jefferson's election in 1800 as revolutionary. This may be true in a restrained sense of the word, since the change from Federalist leadership to Republican was entirely legal and bloodless.
