History is the learnings of the past that will shape the future. It teaches you that people make mistakes and how to learn from them. History has shaped who I am today by teaching me avout slavery and telling me about events in both religion and culture that has happened. It shaped me by telling me the mistakes and giving me the information that I would need on other cultures. My family history is black/ african american but I am mixed. We don't have traditions in our family. Our culture though is black culture. We respect others opinions but when it comes to the black community and to educate someone on it we tell the whole truth no matter how gruesome or how dehumanizing the facts may be during the times of slavery. But we don't just tell about the time of slavery we tell about the times that african tribes existed( and they still do today). We give them knowledge about our culture in africa what they did the stories and the culture there. All this influenced how I think by telling me that every persons race has been through slavery and that even though at one point black people did participate in slavery there is still pride in my culture because thats where I originate from. I know that I must tolerate other cultures cause just as islamic culture came to africa they tolerated it amd some integrated into it. I learned my family history through my grandma and history books. History is important because it taught me that humans aren't perfect that we make mistakes that although we view ourselves as the superior species in the end we can destroy ourselves from the inside.
<span>The US economy had experienced rapid economic growth and financial excess in the late 1920s, and initially the economic downturn was seen as simply part of the boom-bust-boom cycle. Unexpectedly, however, output continued to fall for three and a half years, by which time half of the population was in desperate circumstances (map1). It also became clear that there had been serious over-production in agriculture, leading to falling prices and a rising debt among farmers. At the same time there was a major banking crisis, including the "Wall Street Crash" in October 1929. The situation was aggravated by serious policy mistakes of the Federal Reserve Board, which led to a fall in money supply and further contraction of the economy.
1. Stock Market Crash of 1929
Many believe erroneously that the stock market crash that occurred on Black Tuesday, October 29, 1929 is one and the same with the Great Depression. In fact, it was one of the major causes that led to the Great Depression. Two months after the original crash in October, stockholders had lost more than $40 billion dollars. Even though the stock market began to regain some of its losses, by the end of 1930, it just was not enough and America truly entered what is called the Great Depression.
2. Bank Failures
Throughout the 1930s over 9,000 banks failed. Bank deposits were uninsured and thus as banks failed people simply lost their savings. Surviving banks, unsure of the economic situation and concerned for their own survival, stopped being as willing to create new loans. This exacerbated the situation leading to less and less expenditures.
3. Reduction in Purchasing Across the Board
With the stock market crash and the fears of further economic woes, individuals from all classes stopped purchasing items. This then led to a reduction in the number of items produced and thus a reduction in the workforce. As people lost their jobs, they were unable to keep up with paying for items they had bought through installment plans and their items were repossessed. More and more inventory began to accumulate. The unemployment rate rose above 25% which meant, of course, even less spending to help alleviate the economic situation.
4. American Economic Policy with Europe
As businesses began failing, the government created the Smoot-Hawley Tariff in 1930 to help protect American companies. This charged a high tax for imports thereby leading to less trade between America and foreign countries along with some economic retaliation.
5. Drought Conditions
While not a direct cause of the Great Depression, the drought that occurred in the Mississippi Valley in 1930 was of such proportions that many could not even pay their taxes or other debts and had to sell their farms for no profit to themselves. The area was nicknamed "The Dust Bowl." This was the topic of John Steinbeck's The Grapes of Wrath.</span><span>

Answer:
B. Israel gained territory that had been set aside for the Palestinians.
D. About 750,000 Palestinians fled Israel.
Explanation:
The 1948 (or First) Arab–Israeli War was the second and final stage of the Palestine war. The war was as a result of Israel invasion by five Arab nations following the announcement of the independence of the state of Israel on May 14, 1948.
Around 700,000 Palestinian Arabs fled or were expelled from their homes in the area that became Israel, becoming Palestine refugees.The united nations resolution of 1947 gave Israel some territory formerly granted to Palestinian Arabs.
They were treated terribly. World war 2 started in 1939 and ended in 1945. Prior to that they were mistreated and blamed for the issues Germany faced. During 1935 and 45, Jews along with those who helped them and others who were deemed unfit for society, where rounded up and put into concentration camps. Hopefully this helps.
