History

creativ13 [48]3 years ago
5 0

The British had an empire to run. The way that they kept their economy healthy was through a system called mercantilism. Mercantilism was a popular economic philosophy in the 17th and 18th centuries. In this system, the British colonies were moneymakers for the mother country. The British put restrictions on how their colonies spent their money so that they could control their economies. They put limits on what goods the colonies could produce, whose ships they could use, and most importantly, with whom they could trade. The British even put taxes called duties on imported goods to discourage this practice. This pushed the colonists to buy only British goods, instead of goods from other European countries

Question 8 (3 points)

Question 8 - Although it remains a serious issue, poverty results in very few deaths worldwide

The poverty is one of the biggest problems in the world. It is present pretty much everywhere in the world, though the highest poverty rates by far are in the less developed countries. The people in this countries are so poor that they often don't have food and water, yet alone to be able to pay for medical care. This often results in death from starvation, lack of water, of from deadly diseases. Tens of millions of people each year die because of poverty.

Question 9 - AIDS

The advancements in the medical field have contributed to control of some diseases that were deadly in the past, or total elimination of them. But the medicine has limited power, and it is not almighty, and one of the disease that it can not cure, but only partially regulate is the AIDS. The AIDS is a relatively new disease, starting off less than a century ago. It spread out very quickly though, as one of the easiest ways for it to be transmitted is through sexual intercourse. It affected people from all over the world, from all races, from all backgrounds and social hierarchies. Tens of millions of people have died from it, and every day there are tens of thousands newly infected, mostly in the less developed countries, having their lives doomed even before they start as most of them get it from their parents when they have been conceived.
