History

Marina CMI [18]4 years ago
6 0

The Babylonians adopted the Numerical system developed by the Sumerians of Mesopotamia. The Sumerians formed a mixed system of Metrology, which followed the creation of the arithmetic, algebra and geometry. The initial traces of Babylonian numbers are dated back to the days when the Sumerians wrote the multiplication charts on the clay slabs around 2600 BC. The Babylonians like the Sumerians based their numerical system on Sexagesimal ( a system of calculation invented by the Sumerians) or base 60. Hence they developed a system for writing down the numbers using symbols for Unit, tens, and Hundreds, therefore this system helped them to manipulate large numbers easily.

Document A: Jackson1. What do you already know about President Jackson’s feelings about Indian Removal? What do you predict he w
tekilochka [14]

The first and second questions should be answered by you according to your classes. You should think of: how was President Andrew Jackson elected (1828)? What was he famous for before his candidacy? And according to this, what could be expected from his speech? Jackson was famous for his military victories over Indian tribes and for working actively on the occupation of previous Indian land. Thus his defense of the Indian Removal and his feelings of superiority over Indians wasn’t surprising.

On his opinions about the United States being better in 1830, it is due to an authoritarian view according to which the ways of the Indian’s – who preferred their territories covered with forests –  were inferior to the ways of the Americans’, supposedly full of cities, Art, happy people, liberty, civilization, and religion.  

Since President Jackson wasn’t thinking from the point of view of the Indians, for whom the relationship with their territory was fundamental, he thought Indians would be happy being left in peace away from the whites and free to live their own way.  

He also thought Indians would be glad about this policy for believing it was “kind and generous” as the Indian Removal Act compromised to pay for the Indian’s immigration and for their first year in new territory. That was an offer, he said, “our own people would gladly embrace… on such conditions”, referring to the whites occupying lands east of the Mississipi River.

In order to predict what Elias Boudinot said about Indian Removal you should remember that he was a member of the Cherokee Nation where he was part of a minority who believed their nation would have more chances of surviving if they integrated themselves into the American society. This explains why Boudinot was in favor of Indians making treaties with the United States and willingly giving up on their lands.
