Answer:

False

Explanation:

Children as young four were employed in the factories and mines. They were the labour of choice manufacturing during the early phases of industrial revolution.  

Child workers were employed in the unskilled work. Such work was boring, repetitive and tiring. Children used to spend all day cleaning fluff form the machines and tying ends of cotton. Their welfare was dependant on the employer.  

Their productivity was almost equal to an adult but they were paid much less, their size was also an advantage. Young children were employed in mines and factories, in tunnels they could crawl into places where  it was not possible for an adult

In cotton mills they were used for various tasks,  they helped the blenders to mix the Cotton from the bales, fetching and carrying cotton baskets and bobbins from room to room, Carrying pails of water from the well to the spinning rooms and to keep the floor damp to prevent the thread from braking.

Answer:

Saul, David, and Solomon

Explanation:

Saul is the first king of Israel, before him, judges ruled in Israel. Saul descended from the tribe of Benjamin, who by the vision of the prophet Samuel became the first king and united the tribes of Israel to fight the Philistines. After him, Israel was ruled by Saul's son-in-law, King David, who extended the territory of Israel, conquered Jerusalem, with some historians claiming that David had purchased Jerusalem, which became the capital of Israel. David had a great desire to build a temple in Jerusalem, but his son King Solomon succeeded. King Solomon, who was called the wise men, was known for his wisdom and, through his diplomacy, maintained peace with the surrounding countries, thus enabling prosperity, construction, great trade, and thus the unprecedented progress of Israel. He built the famous Solomon's Temple and during his reign Israel did not wage war, an important fact in the consolidation and further development of Israel's golden age.

How did the Iran-Contra Affair impact the conflict between the United States and the Soviet Union? What role did the Iran-Contra
Alborosie

The Iran-Contra Affair intensified the already existing Cold War tensions between the USA and the Soviet Union.

<em>The Iran-Contra affair</em> was a political scandal in the United States that occurred during the second term of Reagan's presidency. Arms were secretly sold to Iran and the profits obtained from the sale went to support the Contras in Nicaragua.

<em>In Nicaragua</em>, young Marxists known as  Sandinistas took power and turned to the Soviet Union for support and advisers. Soviet Union and Cuba both backed the new Sadinistas government. Seeing it as a way to spread communism, the Reagan administration<em> backed the Contras</em> ( the opposition to the new government). The Contras rebels received financial and military support from the U.S., the rebels were also trained covertly by the CIA. The money for the Contras came from illegal arms sales to Iran. The funding of the Contras had been prohibited by the Congress.

<em>The official justification for the arms shipment to Iran</em> was to pay for the release of seven American hostages in Lebanon. Iran was the subject of arms embargo and any arms sales were prohibited.  It turned out that the sales started even before any hostages were taken. Iran was involved in a war with Iraq and the United States feared that it would fall under the Soviet Union's influence, as the Soviet Union supported Iraq in that war.
