Answer:

The Alien and Sedition Acts were a set of four laws passed by the United States Congress in 1798, in anticipation of a war with France. They made it more difficult for someone to become a US citizen, legalized the president imprisoning and deporting non-citizens who were considered dangerous or from a hostile country, and criminalized making false statements against the federal government. The federalists claimed that these laws would protect the country during a de facto war against France.  

The acts, made quickly in the wake of the XYZ Affair, put limits on foreigners and stifled press criticism of the government. These targeted the French and Irish immigrants, increasing the waiting period to obtain naturalization from five to fourteen years and authorizing the expulsion of foreigners who were considered dangerous.  

Although the Alien and Sedition Acts were adverse to Thomas Jefferson and others, they helped push Jefferson into the presidency. Some were repealed and others expired in 1802.

What was the impact of the Amritsar Massacre?
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

A

Many Indians joined the British military to fight in World War I.

Explanation:

The Amritsar massacre fundamentally changed how the Indians saw the Raj (the era of British rule, which ran from 1757 to 1947). It led Mahatma Gandhi, who during the first world war had forsaken his pacifism to help recruit soldiers to preserve the empire, to see British rule as satanic.

Gail is driving to work when she suddenly notices the ground shaking beneath her car. What would be the safest option for her

Probably to stay in the car and lie on the floor of the back seat. If Gail got out, and a tree fell, she might get hurt but the car acts as a protective shield.

Hope that helps
