Answer:

Yellowstone National Park

Yellowstone National Park is one of the largest and oldest national parks in American history.  Yellowstone was the first park to be protected by private investment on March 1, 1872, and the first to be put under the jurisdiction of the National Park Service in 1918, no doubt due to its unique and inspiring landscape and geothermal features.  In fact, Yellowstone National Park is home to half of the world’s total hydrothermal features.  These awesome attractions draw an incredible amount of visitors, an average of two to three million each year, to Yellowstone’s immense landscape.   The park has a total size of 28,125 square miles, is found in three distinct states, and is considered to be one of the largest…show more content…

This large amount of people has prompted legislative action to clearly define the park’s borders in 1929, and has also inspired park management programs to protect the area’s native wolf and grizzly bear population. Tourism to the area has also prompted Yellowstone’s Lake Trout problem, believed to be the product of visitors’ introduction of this unnative species to the Yellowstone Lake and River. The exotic lake trout has few natural predators in the Yellowstone area, and the expansion of a lake trout population in this area is likely to lead in an abrupt decline oft the favorable native cutthroat trout population as it has in other western lakes. This poses some serious problems for Yellowstone waterways as the cutthroat trout is known as a major food source for 42 species of mammals and birds.

3. He believed treating Germany harshly would lead to future conflicts.

Explanation:

Following the end of World War I that lasted between 1914 to 1918. The positions of Britain's prime minister support at the Paris Peace Conference in 1919 were clear and concise.

His position can be summarily presented to be that:

1. He wanted to preserve Britain's trading relationship with Germany: one of the reasons behind this position is to ensure that Germany can pay for their reparations.

2. He advocated for Germany's armed forces to be dismantled: the reason behind this is to prevent future wars, revenge, or conflict from Germany.

3. He believed treating Germany harshly would lead to future conflicts.

These positions were evident when declared during the treaties among others that "We must not let any sense of revenge, any spirit of greed, any grasping desire override the fundamental principles of righteousness."

What were the ECONOMIC differences between the north and the south in the 1800’s
amid [387]

Answer:

The north had a much more industrial revolutionized approach toward their lifestyle, while the south was more inclined with slave -labor. The north made a living  from industrial lifestyles rapidly producing many products like textiles, sewing machines, farm equipment, and guns. Factories and railroads were very common in the north.  A majority of voters in the north opposed slavery because they feared slave labor would threaten the status of free white workers and would compete with free labor.

The south was a lot more rural than the north making a living from plantations and small farms. Most of the south's economy relied on cotton. Only one third of the whole nation's population lived in the south in 1850. Free white slave owners in the south feared that if slavery was restricted, it would lead to a social and economic revolution.

Unless your teacher has taught you some formula to work this out, I don't see how else this problem would be done.

In a 200 word essay explain why people 2,000 years ago and still today "revere" the famous?
Natasha_Volkova [10]

el despacho que Eugenio Alliata tiene en Jerusalén es el típico del arqueólogo que prefiere estar manchándose de tierra a pie de excavación que estar entre cuatro paredes poniendo orden. En un rincón cría polvo un equipo informático estropeado. Los informes de excavación comparten las abarrotadas estanterías con cintas métricas y otros implementos del oficio.

Es como el despacho de cualquier arqueólogo que he conocido en Oriente Próximo, con la diferencia de que Alliata viste hábito marrón de fraile franciscano y tiene su gabinete en el monasterio de la Flagelación, que según la tradición eclesiástica se alza en el lugar exacto en que Jesucristo, ya condenado a muerte, fue azotado por los soldados romanos y coronado de espinas.

«Tradición» es una palabra que se repite muy a menudo en este rincón del mundo, donde ma­sas de turistas y de peregrinos atestan decenas de lugares que, según la tradición, constituyen los escenarios de la vida de Cristo, desde su cuna en Belén hasta su sepultura en Jerusalén.

Destapan la tumba de Cristo por primera vez en siglos

¡Abren la tumba de Cristo!

Leer artículo

Para una arqueóloga reconvertida en periodista como yo, sabedora de que culturas enteras brillaron y sucumbieron sin dejar tras de sí más que unos pocos vestigios sobre la Tierra, buscar en un paisaje milenario evidencias de una sola persona se antoja la crónica de un fracaso anunciado, como intentar dar caza a un fantasma. Y si ese fantasma es nada menos que Jesucristo, en quien más de 2.000 millones de habitantes del planeta ven al mismísimo Hijo de Dios, en fin, ante tamaña tarea conviene buscar guía divina.

ARQUEOLOGÍA CRISTIANA

Y por ese motivo siempre que viajo a Jerusalén recalo una y otra vez en el monasterio de la Flagelación, donde el padre Alliata nunca deja de recibirme –a mí y a mis preguntas– con una paciencia infinita. En calidad de catedrático de arqueología cristiana y director del museo del Studium Biblicum Franciscanum, forma parte de la misión franciscana que lleva 700 años cuidando y protegiendo los lugares sagrados de Tierra Santa (y, desde el siglo XIX, excavándolos de acuerdo con los principios científicos).

Como hombre de fe, el padre Alliata parece reconocer sin incomodidad hasta dónde puede llegar la arqueología, y hasta dónde no, para revelar la figura fundamental del cristianismo. «Descubrir pruebas arqueológicas de [un individuo concreto que vivió] hace 2.000 años sería algo raro y excepcional –reconoce–. Pero tampoco puede negarse que Jesús dejó una huella histórica».
