The correct answer is Hawaii, as it was not acquired as a result of the Spanish-American War. In fact, Hawaii was annexed by the United States in 1898 with the Newlands Resolution, as an organized incorporated territory. It received statehood in 1959.

Guam, Philippines and Puerto Rico, on the other hand, were ceded by Spain to the United States for 20 million dollars as a result of its defeat in the war.

Dafna1 [17]

Answer: He ordered to break the union

Explanation:

Aware of the contract between the union and Carnegie Steel was expiring on July 1, 1892, Andrew Carnegie ordered his operations manager, Frick, to dismantle the union. Frick´s reduced wages were rejected by the union, so the workers were locked out of the plant by Frick, and 3,800 workers were fired and 300 Pinkerton agents were hired to seize the plant. The union responded with the Homestead Strike, which sparkled a violent confrontation that had many Pinkerton agents as well as strikers killed or injured.

FrozenT [24]

Explanation:

The Enlightenment was an intellectual movement in the eighteenth century that emphasized reason and science.

The British colonist Benjamin Franklin gained fame on both sides of the Atlantic as a printer, publisher, and scientist. He embodied Enlightenment ideals in the British Atlantic with his scientific experiments and philanthropic endeavors.

Enlightenment principles guided the founding of the colony of Georgia, but those principles failed to stand up to the realities of colonial life.

The Enlightenment

The Enlightenment, also known as the Age of Reason, was an intellectual and cultural movement in the eighteenth century that emphasized reason over superstition and science over blind faith. Using the power of the press, Enlightenment thinkers like John Locke, Isaac Newton, and Voltaire questioned accepted knowledge and spread new ideas about openness, investigation, and religious tolerance throughout Europe and the Americas. Many consider the Enlightenment a major turning point in Western civilization, an age of light replacing an age of darkness.
