kenny6666 [7]

The development of Louisiana was impacted by the creation of a proprietorship as the number of French settlers in the colony increased.

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

The introduction of proprietorship allowed the French to form and run their sole trades and businesses with fewer taxes and legal protection.

This act attracted more French people towards the colonies and the population in the colonies increased. Though the leaders tried to look for gold in the interiors of Louisiana, they never found any large deposits.

What accounts for the success of absolutism in some parts of Europe and its failure

Ghella [55]

Answer:

Because even if the Absolutism has similarities and was applied in almost the entire Europe, each country modeled its conceptions to adapt to reality. And this reality could be social, political or religious.

Explanation:

I believe that the better way to understand this point is analyzing the two major countries where the Absolutism was strong: France and England.

France was ruled by Louis XIV in the 17th century. He describes himself as "The state is me" (“L'Etat c'est Moi”). This monarch is the main definition of the absolutist ruler. To support his government, Louis XIV follows the idea of Divine Right of Kings which argued that the monarch had divine powers and was elected by God. Thus, his actions and laws were divine and couldn't be disrespected. The question is: why this conception worked in France? Because it was a catholic country, and religious perceptions were followed without question. Plus, Louis XIV had no limits in his powers. I mean, there was no law or political scheme that could limit him.
On the contrary, in England, the king was subjected to the Parlament. However, only this restriction was not sufficed to limit his power. The main point is that the British kings followed the idea of a social contract (popularized by the philosopher Thomas Hobbes). This idea attests that a king has duties with its people, and the Parlament was always remembering him about this. So, he couldn't do whatever he wanted.

Who was Jee Gam, and how did he resist anti Chinese ideas and laws?

AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

In 1892, Congress passed the Chinese Registration Act or the “Geary Act,” named for its sponsor, Representative Thomas J. Geary from California. The Geary Act required all American residents of Chinese origin or descent to carry a “certificate of residence” that demonstrates that they are legally entitled to be in the country. The lack of a residence certificate was sufficient to justify deportation. The Geary Act built on earlier statutes that had restricted immigration from China. The introduction of immigration restrictions and significant distinct regulation of Chinese immigrants was a departure from earlier American practice, when immigration in general had been actively encouraged and the legal obstacles to immigration to the United States were minimal. The hostility to Chinese immigration was particularly strong on the West Coast, which had seen an influx of foreign laborers, particularly from

China. Jee Gam arrived in San Francisco as a teenager in the late days of the American Civil War. In the United States, he converted to Christianity and took up missionary work in the Chinese community in California. In 1890, he was ordained as a Congregational minister, the first Chinese American to do so. He was an activist on behalf of Chinese interests in the United States, and he married and had several children in the United States. He was still legally barred from becoming a naturalized American citizen when he died in 1910 on a voyage back to China. His critique of the Geary Act was published in an evangelical journal based in San Francisc
