Justice Harlan says that separate but equal is "inconsistent with the civil freedom and equality before the law established by t

Ilya [14]

Answer:

He meant that the doctrine created by Fergusson was unconstitutional and was not vitiated by the country's legal undertones.

Explanation:

Ferguson created the “separate but equal” doctrine to maintain racial segregation in the country in a masked way. He claimed that this doctrine allowed public spaces to be separated between whites and blacks, but spaces destined for blacks had the same quality as spaces separated from whites. Thus, according to him, whites would not be forced to mix with blacks.

However, Judge Harlan stated that this doctrine was unconstitutional and that it was against the objectives of the American government, as it maintained a discriminatory and discriminatory nature and therefore would not be proven.

As civilized citizens, we have to agree with Harlan as this doctrine encourages racism that must be suppressed and not encouraged.

Only the city-state of athens resisted the persian invasion of the greece during the persian wars

a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

The second Persian invasion of Greece (480–479 BC) occurred during the Greco-Persian Wars, as King Xerxes I of Persia sought to conquer all of Greece. The invasion was a direct, if delayed, response to the defeat of the first Persian invasion of Greece (492–490 BC) at the Battle of Marathon, which ended Darius I's attempts to subjugate Greece. After Darius's death, his son Xerxes spent several years planning for the second invasion, mustering an enormous army and navy. The Athenians and Spartans led the Greek resistance. About a tenth of the Greek city-states joined the 'Allied' effort; most remained neutral or submitted to Xerxes.

1. Explain how the Aztec religion played a role in the demise of the Aztecs. (5pts)

almond37 [142]

1. The Mexicas' (correct name of the Aztecs) religion, particularly the belief in feeding the Sun/War God, Hutzilopochtli, required human blood in order to stay alive and continue its journey across the skies, had the effect of making the capture of enemy prisoners a priority in war, instead of merely disabling or eliminating them (a far easier task for it exposes warriors less to wounds and fatal injuries). In battle against the <em>Conquistadors, </em>the Mexica practice of seeking out prisoners of war in battle turned out to be a distinct handicap readily exploited by the Spaniards.

2. The Incas managed to maintain control of the vast territories under their control by means of a an excellent communication system consisting of paved roads across the empire, the establishment of fortified military bases garrisoned by Incan warriors and the efficient use of messengers and their distinct record system known as <em>quipu.</em>

<em>3. </em>Both the Mexicas and the Incas started out as small, poor yet resourceful and ambitious peoples who were able to rebel against foreign domination and expand their domains through the creation and maintenance of highly efficient, aggressive and disciplined armies.

Mexicas and Incans differed in the use of their armies after consolidating their empires: the Mexicas waged wars yearly with the purpose of capturing as many prisoners of war as possible in order to offer their lives as sacrifice to their Sun/War God Huitzilopochtli. Conversely, the Incans used their army to garrison fortified posts strategically located throughout their empire in order to avert any chance of rebellion. Also, the way political and military power was exerted was different in each civilization. The Mexicas were ruled by about half a dozen lords called "tlatoanis" who in turn appointed an overlord called "great tlatoani," so their government system was an elective monarchy of sorts. On the other hand, the emperor of the Incas called "Sapa Inca" inherited the power from his father and would usually murder his brothers as they were his rivals for the supreme power. Thus, the Incas had a hereditary monarchy, a more traditional kind of government.

Which word best describes Congress' handling of slavery prior to the Dred Scott Decision?

xenn [34]

The correct answer is D) Compromise.

Congress was constantly trying to find ways to "solve" the issue of slavery in American society. It first started with the Missouri Compromise. This established that the institution of slavery would not exist north of the 36'30 for any new states added during the era of westward expansion. However, this would not last forever as the adding of California after the Mexican-American War became a problem. This is because the 36'30 cut the state into two parts and the US did not want a half free half slave state.

This resulted in the creation of the Compromise of 1850. However, this law would not solve the issue of slavery. Rather, it just pushed the problem further down the road.
