History

The conflict began after the Soviets sought to obtain some Finnish territory, demanding among other concessions that Finland cede substantial border territories in exchange for land elsewhere, claiming security reasons—primarily the protection of Leningrad, 32 km (20 mi) from the Finnish border. Finland refused, and the USSR invaded the country. Many sources conclude that the Soviet Union had intended to conquer all Finland, and use the establishment of the puppet Finnish Communist government and the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact's secret protocols as evidence of this,[F 8] while other sources argue against the idea of the full Soviet conquest.[F 9] Finland repelled Soviet attacks for more than two months and inflicted substantial losses on the invaders while temperatures ranged as low as −43 °C (−45 °F). After the Soviet military reorganised and adopted different tactics, they renewed their offensive in February and overcame Finnish defences.

the under lying reason for the winter war was soviet concern about Nazi Germany's expansionism.  the secret protocol of the pact gave the soviet union a sphere of influence that included Finland, the Baltic States, and and parts of Eastern Europe.  Suomussalmi is considered the the clearest most important and most significant Finnish victory in the northern half of Finland

Summarize What kinds of discrimination did ethnic minorities face in the West?
Andru [333]

Ethnic minorities had always have to face many kinds of discrimination in the west, generally because of their racial features and some different aspects in their cultures. Indians, Latin Americans, Asians, Arabians, etc had always been discriminated against and found it difficult to get jobs, be accepted at schools, have friends, have social life and fit in American society. Some ethnic groups suffered more than others. For example, Arabians tend to continue using their typical clothes. As a result, American society regards them as different from the very beginning.

Which philosopher believed that people were inherently evil and that government should control them?
Inessa05 [86]

Explanation:

In 1651, Thomas Hobbes famously wrote that life in the state of nature – that is, our natural condition outside the authority of a political state – is ‘solitary, poore, nasty brutish, and short.’ Just over a century later, Jean-Jacques Rousseau countered that human nature is essentially good, and that we could have lived peaceful and happy lives well before the development of anything like the modern state. At first glance, then, Hobbes and Rousseau represent opposing poles in answer to one of the age-old questions of human nature: are we naturally good or evil? In fact, their actual positions are both more complicated and interesting than this stark dichotomy suggests. But why, if at all, should we even think about human nature in these terms, and what can returning to this philosophical debate tell us about how to evaluate the political world we inhabit today?

The question of whether humans are inherently good or evil might seem like a throwback to theological controversies about Original Sin, perhaps one that serious philosophers should leave aside. After all, humans are complex creatures capable of both good and evil. To come down unequivocally on one side of this debate might seem rather naïve, the mark of someone who has failed to grasp the messy reality of the human condition. Maybe so. But what Hobbes and Rousseau saw very clearly is that our judgements about the societies in which we live are greatly shaped by underlying visions of human nature and the political possibilities that these visions entail.

Answer:

C. The Caddo lived in dome-shaped huts built from timber

Explanation:

Their Dome-Shaped huts were made from Grass, not Timber.

They supported the dome using long wooden poles as the foundation and covered with dry grass to serve as its Roof and walls. During winter, they often covered the foundation with thick layer of clay  to provide protection from the cold weather.

Typically, each of their dome-shaped huts were large enough for 20-30 people to live in. But one hut is usually used by no more than two-three families.
