Answer:

After the Punic wars

Explanation:

The Punic Wars are wars waged between Rome and Carthage for dominance in the Mediterranean.

In the First Punic War land and sea fighting took place in Sicily. The Romans built their first naval fleet and defeated the Carthaginians by using assault ships mounted on ships in the battles near Milazzo. After the Romans lost almost their entire fleet they built a new, decisively defeated Carthage. With peace, the Romans gained all of Sicily, and Carthage had to pay them war compensation.  

The Second Punic War  was triggered by the great commercial boom of Carthage and its conquests in Spain and the aggressive policies of the Barkas family, which took power in Carthage. The Carthaginian leader Hannibal crossed the Alps, penetrated Italy and badly defeated the Romans near Lake Trazimen and Cannae  But when he returned to Africa, he was defeated by Scipion African in a decisive battle near Zama. The conditions of peace that were then concluded were very unfavorable for Carthage: it had to renounce Spain, the Mediterranean islands and Numidia, and pledge to burn all its warships (except 10), not to wage wars without the permission of Rome, and to pay Rome war damages.

The third Punic war  was triggered by disputes between King of Numida and Carthage. At the persistent request of Cato Elder to destroy Carthage  the Roman Senate decided to wage war and immediately besieged Carthage from land and from the sea. After 3 years The Romans conquered, looted and destroyed Carthage, and symbolically plowed a furrow at the site of the city, and killed or sold the inhabitants to slaves. Part of the Carthage territory in Africa was organized as a Roman province, and the rest was distributed to their allies.

Answer:

The Second World War, propaganda and anti-Semitism

In September 1939, shortly after Germany invaded Poland, Joseph Goebbels, the Reich Minister of Propaganda, dictated a memo demanding more Nazi ‘wall newspapers’, or posters. ‘Everywhere in the Reich where there is dense traffic, poster boards of the Nazi party are to be set up’, Goebbels insisted. ‘All means of transport (railroad, streetcars, subways, buses, and so on) will receive posters, which are to be placed in every wagon, on the train platforms, in the ticket windows, as well as in the entrances to these forms of public transport’ (fig.2). As historian Jeffrey Herf explains, ubiquitous political posters – named Parole der Woche, distributed by the thousands every week from 1936 to 1945 and strategically displayed all over Germany – were a primary means of asserting Nazi ideology and, in particular, radical anti-Semitism.2

Write a paragraph describing how countries decide what goods to export and what goods to import.
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

Countries decide what to export and  import depending on the necessity and current trade levels. Countries participate with others in trades to benefit from each other in this mutualism. Countries decide what to export depending on the need and popularity of a product in another country. This needs to be reevaluated constantly, so they can continue making money, and that the trade generates revenue. Exportation and importation is highly influenced by government policies, and by availability of a product. Many countries limit their imports, encouraging consumers to purchase from the country's own stock, benefiting the countries individual economy. Importing is done to receive products that are not easily acquired in the country where they reside in. Trade needs to be balanced, and continuously happening, otherwise, friendly relations, due to benefiting the other's economy, could turn sour.

If you had come to America to practice your Quaker religious beliefs, chances are you would have settled in
valentina_108 [34]
If you had come to America to practice your Quaker religious beliefs, chances are you would have settled in Pennsylvania. The father of William Penn was a Quaker and a charter was granted to William Penn by the crown of England to name a colony after his father. Pennsylvania is now just 14 miles away in the south of Philadelphia. This is the main reason why it is correct to feel that Pennsylvania is the place to practice Quaker religious beliefs for any person.
