History

Vanyuwa [196]3 years ago
8 0

The correct answer is - halted Chinese immigration for a period.

The Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 was a racist act that was restricting people's migration based on their race or ethnicity, in this case the Chinese people that were limited to just 5,000 people per year allowed to migrate to the United States. This halted the Chinese migration in the United States for some time, and if this act did not took place, the demographic picture of the United States nowadays would probably have been much different and the Chinese population would have been one of the most dominant ones.

What evidence does the author provide to support the statement, "Pennsylvania created the most radical state constitution of the
Ilya [14]

Hello. You forgot to add the text to which this question refers. The text is:

Pennsylvania created the most radical state constitution of the period. Following the idea of popular rule to its logical conclusion, Pennsylvania created a state government with several distinctive features. First, the Pennsylvania constitution of 1776 abolished property requirements for voting as well as for holding office. If you were an adult man who paid taxes, then you were allowed to vote or even to run for office. This was a dramatic expansion of who was considered a political person, but other aspects of the new state government were even more radical. Pennsylvania also became a "unicameral" government where the legislature only had one body. Furthermore, the office of the governor was entirely eliminated. Radicals in Pennsylvania observed that the governor was really just like a small-scale king and that an upper legislative body (like the House of Lords in Parliament) was supposed to represent wealthy men and aristocrats. Rather than continue those forms of government, the Pennsylvania constitution decided that "the people" could rule most effectively through a single body with complete legislative power.

Answer:

The Pennsylvania Constitution established a unicameral legislative body.

The Pennsylvania Constitution abolished property requirements for voting and holding elected office.

Explanation:

The text above shows how Pennsylvania created a constitution a totally different and radical constitution compared to other American states. This is because Pennsylvania, through its constitution, modified its entire political body, creating a more popular structure and accessible to all citizens. The main changes occurred in terms of who could vote and stand and how the state's legislative body would be established. In summary, these changes are:

  • The Pennsylvania Constitution established a unicameral legislative body.
  • The Pennsylvania Constitution abolished property requirements for voting and holding elected office.

12. Who was primarily responsible for the Cold War - the United States or the Soviet Union? Explain your hypothesis using eviden
Degger [83]

Answer:

Neither, technically

Explanation:

In my opinion, it was actually Germany who started the Cold War. I know that sounds weird, but hear me out.  After the end of World War II, the allied powers divided Germany and Berlin  for themselves. Meanwhile the Soviets would establish Communist dictatorships in Eastern Europe. Germany was the first place that the powers engaged against, with the West uniting their parts of germany into the Republic of West Germany, while in the East, the Soviets created East Germany.
Germany was the real contester that both the Soviets and the West wanted. Now obviously this kind of proves that the USSR started the whole thing. Most people are biased against the USSR, and I can see their point. However the US was the first to back the proxy wars, with the Greek Civil War and the tensions in turkey, thus lighting the fire for the chaos to come

So who actually started it? Depends on who you ask.

Why do you think the Republican Party gave up on supporting civil rights for African Americans in 1877
makkiz [27]

Answer:

They didn't.

Explanation:

The Democratic Party was against civil right for African Americans well into the 70's. The Republican Party was responsible for the freeing of slaves, the first African American senator was Republican, and it was also the Republicans that passed the Civil Rights Act in 1964, ending public segregation. In fact, the Democrats even conducted a 14 hour and 13 minute filibuster to try and delay the legislation.
