History

Sphinxa [80]4 years ago
4 0

The three ways in which geography was effected by these voyages are:

- they finally proved that the Earth is round;

- the discovery of new continents and islands;

- mapping;

The voyages of this period of time were extremely important for the geography as a science, as well as for the whole human kind. With them, it was finally proved that our planet is round, and thus those questions and debates were finally given the answer that everyone was looking for for so long. Four new continents and thousands of islands were discovered, and that gave a whole new perspective to the world, its shape, land masses, and water bodies. Since lot of new discoveries were made, and there was an ever-growing number of places discovered, the mapping was crucial, and there was a lot of focus on it that contributed in its development and new techniques of mapping.

What was the gold standard? Which groups of Americans supported it, and which groups opposed it?
Y_Kistochka [10]
<span>The gold standard is a monetary system where a country's currency or paper money has a value directly linked to gold.</span><span><span>The farmers opposed the gold standard because in order to live on their farms, they needed to take out a mortgage on them because they couldn't pay the entire fee by themselves. Thus, farmers were in debt, and a gold AND silver standard would help them by increasing the amount of currency in circulation. Inflation would help debtors because more currency would be produced, therefore the value of each currency would decrease and the value of their debts would similarly decrease, making it easier to pay off. The amount of debt would stay the same, but they would be getting higher wages because of inflation. The wealthy and eastern industrial workers supported a gold standard because inflation would not help them. The wealthy had savings accounts and such, and inflation would lessen the value of their savings. Similarly, the industrial workers might also have a small savings account, but would not have a mortgage on a farm like the westerners (they would live in tenement buildings), so inflation would not have a positive effect on them either. </span> </span>
