These countries started off with disagreements and bad things happened, but the reason why they do Cooperate now is because the have a shared interest. For example when the United States and Russia had to join together despite the US not wanting to get involved because of Hitler. They all had to do the same thing which is set aside their differences and focus on what was going to help them both in the long run. Lastly, resources are also a huge component as to why they are buddies now. Every country relies on another country for a specific resource and once that resource is taken away they’ll have no where else to go, so they have to go back and forget their differences. Ie. the United States and Japan.
The correct options are:
- Congress had changed the meaning of the First Amendment, rather than enforcing it.

The federal Religious Restoration Act of 1993, approved almost unanimously by Congress and signed by then President Bill Clinton. This law originally intended to apply to both federal and state government actions, the Supreme Court ruled in 1997 that it be applied only federally. Subsequently, 19 states passed their own versions of the law, explicitly applying it as a state-level law.
They were seen as Peter’s spiritual heirs.
Answer: B. The crowding of people in tenements and slums.
Further detail:
The Industrial Revolution had its beginning in Great Britain, and eventually spread from there. Once the United States became involved, especially in the "Second Industrial Revolution" years (1870-1914), the size and resources of the country allowed the US to become a bigger industrial power than the nations of Europe.
Industrialization also led to the phenomenon of <u>urbanization</u> -- the movement of people away from the rural countryside and into cities. That led to other issues, like sanitation and crime problems in cities. So sanitation and health measures were enacted, and the first police forces were formed.
The overcrowding conditions also meant poor living conditions in tenements and slums. The condition of these sorts of neighborhoods was documented by Jacob Riis, a police reporter in New York. In 1888, Riis took pictures of what life was like in New York City's slums. Using his own photos as well as photos gathered from other photographers, Riis began to give lectures titled, "The Other Half: How It Lives and Dies in New York," in which he would show the pictures on a projection screen and describe for viewers what the situations were like. He gave his lectures in New York City churches. In 1989, a magazine article by Riis (based on his lectures) was published in <em>Scribner's Magazine</em>. The book version was then published in 1890 as <em>How the Other Half Lives: Studies among the Tenements of New York</em>. Riis blamed the poor living conditions on greed and neglect from society's wealthier classes, and called on society to remedy the situation as a moral obligation.
