History

Answer:

The king is not the most important piece because it is rarely used, like in the feudal system, where his knights and peasants do most of the work, like knights and pawns on a chess board.

Explanation:

All you need is some knowledge about chess, and feudalism.

In feudal Europe, the monarchy (mainly the king) gave out pieces of land to nobles and aristocrats and taxed them. They would then live in the land, and give it out to knights and peasants. The peasants would be taxed in money and crops in return for the housing and farmland. The knights would generally be given more land, but not by much, and they would protect the land they live on, and if called on by the king, would leave and protect the kingdom. The king got rich, while his pawns worked and died in his name.

List and explain two legacies of the conflict in Vietnam. In what ways is the u.s still feeling the effects of the Vietnam war?
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

  1. Abolition of the Draft system.
  2. War Powers Act.

Explanation:

The Vietnam War was a conflict between the forces of the Communist North Vietnamese along with their Viet Cong allies and the Capitalist South Vietnamese. The U.S. supported the South as they did not want communism to spread but had to leave when it became clear that the Communists would win. The war caused widespread dissent in the U.S. as many American soldiers died.

The War led to some consequences such as:

  • Abolition of the Draft system - As a result of the widespread criticism of the government for using a draft to increase the ranks of the U.S. army, the government finally abolished the draft. It is not impossible that the system will be used again but that possibility is highly unlikely and this was as a result of the Vietnam war.
  • War Powers Act - The war also led to the reduction of the war powers of the U.S. President with restrictions placed on how long they could engage the army in combat without Congressional approval.
