History
1 answer:
Rainbow [258]4 years ago
7 0

Executive Order 9066 was an authorization for the secretary of war to create militarized zones that were to serve as concentration camps for the Japanese. It was issued in 1942 a few months after the attack on Pearl Harbor and created concentration camps that lasted until 1945.

During World War II (1939-1945) nearly 90% of the Japanese individuals living in the continental US were interned in these camps. Many of them were American citizens in the second and third generations.

Roosevelt passed this executive order because of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. The order served to make any Japanese individual a potential spy working against the US.

Which person would be included in the "100 percent American" group?
Elina [12.6K]

a. the Grand Dragon of the Ku Klux Klan

The 100 Percent American group is a nativist group who promoted the idea of what it means to be an American. They believed that white people with western European origins (original settlers) were the rightful Americans.

Nativist groups were against immigrants, blacks, Jews, Catholics, and other minority groups. They used methods of intimidation and violence in an effort to limit the power and say of these groups. The KKK is an example of a group that organized around the ideas of nativism and promoted what they believed to be the traits of "true" Americans.

Explanation:

There is no text provided but I found the options. Ancient Egyptians were big believers in the afterlife and sought to do more whilst living to make their path in the afterlife easier to trode.

They also wanted to help the deceased travel safely to the underworld and one of the ways they did this as the text shows, is to sometimes put senet game boards into graves as these were believed to provide protection for the journey into the afterlife.
