Answer: C. rid Italy of all forms of democracy

Explanation: Upon becoming Prime Minister of Italy, Mussolini had to form a coalition government, because the Fascists did not have control over the Italian parliament. Mussolini’s coalition government initially pursued economically liberal policies under the direction of liberal finance minister Alberto De Stefani, a member of the Center Party, including balancing the budget through deep cuts to the civil service. Initially, little drastic change in government policy occurred and repressive police actions were limited.

The Civil Rights Movement made great strides toward equality, but our society still has a long way to go. How have we made progr
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

Since the Civil Rights Movement, we have made strides to remove redlining, segregation laws, and other errors in diversity movements of the past. An example of a growth since the Civil Rights Movement would be the workplace discrimination act, stating that businesses may not turn down possible employees due to race, disability, age, gender, or ethnicity. However, in terms of race, we still have far to go. In criminal justice reform, in stereotyping, and in the display we have of diversity in media today are just a few places in which race reforms are needed. For example, there are very few kids shows which include a black character as the main character. This is harmful, as black children grow up seeing white people as the heroes and black people as the background characters, never the active participants in the protagonist  story line.  Education reforms in inner cities have been proven to greatly aid black success as lower income areas tend to attract teachers which are not as prepared as those in higher income, traditionally white neighborhoods thanks to the remnants of redlining in the Jim Crowe era. We have removed obvious race problems since the Civil Rights movement such as the poll tax, grandfather clause, and the literacy tests, but this is the tip of the iceberg in removing underlying systematic oppression which is not actively put in place today to harm those of non-Caucasian groups.  

Explanation:

This is a highly debated topic, and your teacher may be wanting your opinion which may or may not align with mine. I tried to provide as many examples on both sides as I could in a concise answer and I hope this helped!

Explain the geographic circumstances that led to the development of the Maurya and Gupta Empires
Anika [276]

Answer:

A) The Mauryan Empire expanded over nearly the entire region of what is now modern day India. Starting with Chandragupta and ending with his grandson Ashoka, the empire was expanded over a span roughly a hundred years. This was not an easy task because of the size of the land to be conquered. The area that is now known to be modern day India, is a peninsula. The Arabian Sea borders the land on the west, the Indian ocean borders it to the south and the Bay of Bengal borders it to the east. The Himalaya Mountains separated the rest of east Asia, including China, from the Mauryan Empire. The Hindu Kush Mountains to the north west of the Mauryan Empire separated it from the rest of the Middle East. The monsoon cycle effected the Mauryan Empire as well. High rainfall often lead to reoccurring floods and in the winter, especially inland, there was a lack of rainfall and that lead to droughts. Needless to say, it was hard to sustain a surplus of agriculture throughout the year. The location was still beneficial despite this. Trade over sea to east Asia flourished. the size of the subcontinent of India lead to the development of several languages in different and separate regions of the land. This is the reason why the development of the Mauryan Empire was is so important in history.  That the empire existed is a testament to the strength of the rulers at the time to unify such a vast region.

B) There isn't much of a difference in geography between the Mauryan and the Gupta empires as the Gupta Empire was the predecessor of the Mauryan. This meant that the Gupta empire inherited the land owned by the Mauryan Empire. One obvious difference between the two empires is that the Gupta  Empire was smaller that the Mauryan. The Gupta Empire is located in the northern region of the subcontinent underneath the Himalayan and Hindu Kush mountains. The people of the Gupta Empire where better adapted to the Monsoon cycle  by building high houses to accommodate the floods. Because of this they were able to flourish agriculturally, boasting their economy.
