3 0

When the war ended on November 11, 1918, African Americans anxiously and optimistically hoped that their patriotic sacrifices would have a positive impact on race relations and expand the boundaries of civil rights. Political leaders attempted to exert influence on the Versailles peace proceedings. W. E. B. Du Bois organized a Pan-African Congress, held in Paris from February 19 to 21, 1919, which challenged the legitimacy of European colonialism. (Just use the important parts)

Answer:

Athenian democracy developed around the 6th century BC in the Greek city-state (known as a polis) of Athens, comprising the city of Athens and the surrounding territory of Attica. Although Athens is the most famous ancient Greek democratic city-state, it was not the only one, nor was it the first; multiple other city-states adopted similar democratic constitutions before Athens.[1][2]

Why is American Government and Politics important?

Marianna [84]

Answer:

My dad's friend once told me that there's only three major reasons as to why the government/politics are important:

1. Governmental and political decisions impact almost every aspect of our everyday lives.

2. Having knowledge of politics helps make you an informed voter.

And 3. Politics are entertaining.

Okay, to be honest, politics don't really entertain me, but you know what, that's just my opinion, I know that plenty of people find politics entertaining, I'm just not one of them.

But yeah, anyway.

There are your top three :)

have a nice day, hope i helped, and if so, brainliest is always appreciated

Answer:

There are two opposing views on the Manhattan project. One, see it as one of United States greatest achievements from Second World War while others view it as a crime against humanity. Let's discuss this in detail.

Explanation:

Many hold the point of view that the Manhattan project resulted in the development of the deadliest weapon in history. It resulted in the deaths of more than a 100,000 people in Japan and continues to be a problem in the world today.

The other point of view is that the Manhattan project was necessary and if American had not developed it, the Germans would have, which would have made it a much more dangerous place. Supporters also point out to how it helped in the development of clean nuclear energy and nuclear medical science which benefits everyone today.

Personally, I agree that it was, at least, a necessary evil, which has protected the country and gave us tons of other benefits.
