Answer:

True

Explanation:

The federal law gave the Interstate Commerce Commission (ICC) the power to set maximum railroad rates and extended its jurisdiction which led to the discontinuation of free passes to loyal shippers.

The ICC could view the financial records of the railroads' which was simplified by standardized bookkeeping systems. The outcome of the law could apply to any railroad that resisted and the ICC's conditions would remain in effect. The ICC's jurisdiction was extended to the following:

- bridges

- terminals

- ferries

- railroad sleeping cars

-  express companies and oil pipelines.

Analyze international policies and actions taken as a response to the Cold War including U.S. involvement in Cuba and the escala
vesna_86 [32]
During the Cold War, the United States was focused on the foreign policy of containment. This idea focuses on stopping the spread of communism on an international scale. This policy explains why the US got involved in Cuba and Vietnam.

In Cuba, Fidel Castro and his followers overthrew Batista and established a communist government. Along with this, Castro established a good trading relationship with the Soviet Union. This resulted in the US attempting to overthrow Castro through the Bay of Pigs Invasion. However, this mission failed and only increased Castro's power and influence in Cuba.

As for Vietnam, the US was always interested in what was happening there, as they were afraid the communist system in North Vietnam would spread to the democratic country of South Vietnam. This act gave President Lyndon B. Johnson the power to take all necessary measures to protect US interests in Vietnam and to increase military action if needed.

Think about the relationship between the United States and China today. Do you think it is a positive or negative relationship?
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

It can depend on a multitude of factors such as if we refer to economic ties, then yes I think it is positive, as China provides the US with the labor for US companies to utilize to mass produce their products. By contrast, our geopolitical ties are negative as suggested by conflicting interests and human rights issues that the US calls China out on (such as in Xinjiang where the Chinese had shown to strip the Uyghurs of their freedoms and putting them into re-education camps). A way that we can improve this is by holding more bilateral talks and to discuss about the certain issues that both countries have and working together to foster better relations and build mutual understanding.

Put these events related to relocation of native Americans into chronological order
lesya692 [45]

The correct chronology would be as follows:

The US government establishes the office of Indian trade. In 1806, Congress created the Office of Indian Trade, an office in charge of supervising the network of public Indian trading factories that the US had from 1795 to 1822.  This office was closed in 1822 because of cases of corruption.

The Choctaw sign the treaty of dancing rabbit creek. The Treaty of Dancing Rabbit Creek was a treaty signed in 1830 between the Choctaw Nation and the United States. This was the first removal treaty put into effect under the Indian Removal Act passed by President Andrew Jackson that same year. As a consequence of this act, the Creek ceded control of large part of their territory in what today is Mississippi in exchange for land in Indian Territory, today Oklahoma.

The Supreme Court rules in Worcester v. Georgia. Worcester v. Georgia was a legal case in which Chief Justice John Marshall  ruled, in 1832, that the relationship between the American Indian Nations and the United States was that of nations; consequently, only the federal government, and not the governments of the individual states, had the power to deal with the American Indians.

The US government forces Seminole tribe to relocate from Florida to Indian territory. Per the Indian Removal Act of 1830, the Seminole Nation was forced to relocate to Indian Territory. Some of the Seminoles were removed after signing the Treaty of Payne’s Landing in 1834. However, the majority of the nation declared the treaty illegitimate and refused to leave. This resulted in a struggle known as the Second Seminole War (1835–1842). As a consequence of this war, most of the Seminole Nation had to relocate from Florida to Indian Territory.
