History
1 answer:
HACTEHA [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

England used the policies of <u>mercantilism </u>to maintain control in the colonies. The <u>central government administered its possessions for the economic benefit of the mother country.  </u>

Explanation:

Despite England didn't control its colonies like Portugal and Spain, the British Crown used the same polices as the Iberian Empires. Mercantilism is a mix of economical ideas and practices such as tax collection over exportation and importation, among other policies in order to maintain the control and to let the colonies know that England was close and operating. To work properly, Mercantilism should have an administrator in the colonies chosen by the Mother Country. That's the way England knew what was happening there.

what was the major impact of the united states participation in the vietnam war on the american people
inna [77]

Answer:

Explanation:

You wouldn't have to ask the question if you lived in the United States during the Vietnam war. Nothing, no event since the civil war a century earlier, split the American people more than Vietnam.

Basically there were a number of things that it did.

1. Those fighting it were split about going over. Many college educated students would have enlisted immediately after Pearl Harbor in WWII. Those same class of people would not be persuaded that way during Vietnam

2. It gave rise to the civil rights movement. The colored didn't want to go to Vietnam, or not all of them. Those who were opposed, especially the colored, sympathized with organizations like the Black Panthers or the Peace movement headed by Martin Luther King.

3. It brought the war into American living rooms. I can still remember seeing the shooting of a Viet Cong prisoner. At the time, it was extremely graphic and if I may say so, very horrifying.

4. The white middle class was equally upset by Vietnam. There were rallies on the University campuses where the numbers were in the tens of thousands. My mother 79 at the time, insisted on going to one. She was not disappointed. The keynote speaker was Jane Fonda. The body count was just too high not to upset just about everyone.

5. Then there was Kent State. You would do well to look that up.

Pepsi [2]

The correct answer is: true The Quakers (Friendship Society of Friends) were persecuted for not taking off their hats in court, refusing to swear to the court, for traveling on the so-called Christian Sabbath and for walking like vagabonds. In the following decades some escaped persecution by emigrating to American colonies.

poizon [28]
There were almost countless problems faced by the Israelites between 1800 b.c. and 700 b.c. but perhaps the most significant was that they were persecuted against by their government.
