Answer:

It had supported Israel in the Yum Kippur War.

Explanation:

During the Yum Kippur War of Israel against Jordan, Syria and Egypt, the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, also known as OPEC stated that nations that supported Israel would face a monthly oil embargo of 5% until the support to Israel was retired, the main countries that faced this embargo were Canada, United States, Japan, Britain, Portugal, Netherlands, South Africa and Rhodesia; but later the OPEC declared a total embargo to the United States and Netherlands because they were the ones that supported Israel the most. This embargo generated an oil crisis and caused a rise on oil prices.

Until Queen Elizabeth Tudor consolidated her power and stabilized England, how did the English challenge Spanish sea power? HELP
SOVA2 [1]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.

The English challenged Spanish sea power although the Spaniards were known to have the best navy of the time. What Queen Elizabeth did in 1587 was to name Lord Howard of Effingham to lead the English navy against the Spanish armada. The English nobility accepted the movement and decided to back Effingham as the leader of the British navy. He had the knack to be able to listen to more experienced voices to make decisions, as was the case of his vice-admiral Sir Francis Drake, who really was a renowned sailor.

Which of the following staements best supports the idea that the jim crow laws detailed in the table deprived African Americans
PIT_PIT [208]

<u>Question 1</u>

The correct answer is: "they created a sense of inferiority that was inherently".

With the enactment of the Reconstruction Amendments to the US Constitution, that granted equality of rights to all US citizens without discrimination in terms of race, some Southern states started to issue laws that indirectly tried to circumvent such provision and to prevent African Americans from having actual access to their constitutional rights.

For example, Jim Crow laws aimed to impede black citizens from voting, by establishing requirements such as having a certain income level or obtaining a certain grade in a literacy test. Such requirements excluded mostly black citizens, which were treated as inferior and actually they were positioned as such, when being excluded.

<u>Question 2</u>

The correct answer is: "housing patterns and economic opportunity "

Segregation is not allowed on any legal document or official action in the United States. It was declared unconstitutional and forbidden some decades ago.

But the US is a country deeply affected by social and income inequalities. The main reason is the difference in social and economic opportunities that  a person can have access to, and thesedepend drastically on the type of neighbourhood or community in which a person is born or lives.
