What is america's identity and how has it changed over time?
zmey [24]

Many people point to the American Creed as the core of American identity. Huntington defines the American Creed as embodying the "principles of liberty, equality, individualism, representative government, and private property".

According to Buford’s study, 73 per­cent of Nigerian and Ghanaian immi­grants had African Amer­i­cans in their social net­works, including col­leagues, neigh­bors, sig­nif­i­cant others and acquain­tances in vol­un­teer orga­ni­za­tions. Forty-nine per­cent of those sur­veyed had white Amer­i­cans in their social networks.

Which of the following best explains why the Great Plains were once known as the “Great American Desert”?
lesya692 [45]

Answer: B

Explanation: Explorers had not actually seen the Plains when describing it. And also.......

HOW THE ‘GREAT AMERICAN DESERT’BURIES GREAT PLAINS INDIAN ENVIRONMENTAL HISTORY.

In the winter of 1819 the United States shook under the first Great Depression, and on the

Missouri River a great scientific enterprise sent to secure Missouri Territory shivered

and died from cholera and scurvy. In 1820 Maj. Stephen Long and a poorly equipped expedition

of twenty-three soldiers, amateur scientists, and landscape painters, set out from Engineer

Cantonment to circumnavigate the unknown Central Great Plains during the height of summer,

and rescue something from the debacle. After weathering endless rain and hallucinating waves of

Comanche, they divided into two groups at the Arkansas, and then either starved and endured

weeks of rain on the lower Arkansas, or ate rancid skunk and endured blistering sun on the ‘Red

River’. While returning, they found that Long had ‘mistaken’ the Canadian River for the Red, and that they

were yet another failed expedition to know the Louisiana Purchase. Unsurprisingly, Long

labeled the whole place a “great desert.” An editor improved the phrase to Great American

Desert, and emblazoned the phrase on history.

A Persistent Mirage is both an exegesis of the GAD myth and an HGIS study of the

groups and biomes the desert mirage occludes. Desert was a cultural term meaning beyond the

pale that beached with the Puritans. Like Turner’s frontier, it stayed a step ahead of settlement,

moving west to the tall grass prairies before crossing the Mississippi to colonize the Great Plains.

Once there it did calculable damage to the writing of Plains Aboriginal history. After all, who

lives upon deserts but wandering beasts and savages? Beneath the mirage was an aboriginal

network of agricardos, or agricultural and trading centers, growing enough food to support large

populations, and produce tradable surpluses, undergirded by bison protein. Euramericans from

Cabeza de Vaca on were drawn to agricardos which helped broker the passages of horses to the

Northern Plains and of firearms to the Southwest. While some withstood epidemic disease, the

escalation of inter-group violence and environmental degradation due to the adoption of the

horse by agricardo groups proved their undoing. Beneath the Great American Desert lies the

great Indian Agricardo Complex, with its history just begun.
