Answer:
C.) Job loss
Explanation:
A.) is incorrect because protectionism is reduced when countries engage in more trade agreements. Reducing protectionism is generally seen as a good thing. Protectionism involves protecting a country's economy mainly by taxing imports. The fact that countries are willing to participate in more trade with other countries directly opposes this theory.
B.) is incorrect because sanctions involve decreasing trade with other countries. Sanctions are some form of penalties a country places on another to pressure or protect themselves against that country. Sanctions make it more difficult to purchase international products and can negatively impact domestic businesses and citizens.
C.) is correct because this is the only negative consequence of more trade agreements. When trade expands, citizens have an easier time buying products from other countries. If citizens begin to purchase less domestic products, some companies may lose business. With less business comes more lay offs and lost jobs.
D.) is incorrect because tariffs would be loosened if trade agreements are reached. Tariffs are taxes placed on items entering a country that are meant to discourage international purchases. Lower taxes on foreign items makes the products cheaper for consumers.
Throughout history language has done a great job of uniting people, since they are able to communicate and share stories that bring them closer together. It has also divided, however, since people who speak a certain language can sometimes feel a sense of national or ethnic pride that leads to violence against people who speak other languages.
The correct answer is the North because of its well-established government.
Before the Civil War, the United States already had a well-established government for over 70 years. However, the South, had to develop their own system of government, own military forces, and own supplies before they could successfully fight the Union army.
They weren't so successful at conquering Europe or China. Of course, one can blame the long supply lines, but in these cases their adversaries were also determined to repulse them.
In contrast, Byzantium and Persia were exhausted from mutual warfare. Tribes related by kinship to Muslim Arabs had served as mercenaries during this period, so there was a lot of tactical knowledge available.
The Byzantines retreated to the highlands of Anatolia upon losing their lower-lying provinces to the Muslims. I am not sure if they launched a determined counter-attack. The Persians did, but they could not fight coherently.
