Explain the difference between the Aztec requirement for conquered people to pay a tribute, the Inca form of labor service (mita
solong [7]

The Aztecs, Incas, and Chinese, all had well developed civilizations, and they all used labor force or tributary system. All of them though has different systems and requirements in this department.

The Aztecs had lot of conquered people. They required tribute in the form of people for sacrifice. As the Aztecs has Gods that were very thirsty for human blood, in order to not sacrifice themselves, the Aztecs were taking people for the other tribes and sacrificed them.

The Inca system of labor force seem to have been the most just one. In this system, everyone, apart from the emperor, had to work for the good of everyone and for the good of themselves. Everyone lived in same homes, wore the same clothes, and worked the same types of jobs.

In China, the tribute system was based on forced labor of the people that were conquered. They had to work, produce certain goods, and give part of those goods or part of the profit from those goods to the governing bodies.

Write a paragraph of at least 125 words that considers why D.W. Griffith's movie, Birth of a Nation, was so controversial.​
Burka [1]

Answer: “Birth of a Nation”—D. W. Griffith’s disgustingly racist yet titanically original 1915 feature—back to the fore. The movie, set mainly in a South Carolina town before and after the Civil War, depicts slavery in a halcyon light, presents blacks as good for little but subservient labor, and shows them, during Reconstruction, to have been goaded by the Radical Republicans into asserting an abusive dominion over Southern whites. It depicts freedmen as interested, above all, in intermarriage, indulging in legally sanctioned excess and vengeful violence mainly to coerce white women into sexual relations. It shows Southern whites forming the Ku Klux Klan to defend themselves against such abominations and to spur the “Aryan” cause overall. The movie asserts that the white-sheet-clad death squad served justice summarily and that, by denying blacks the right to vote and keeping them generally apart and subordinate, it restored order and civilization to the South.

“Birth of a Nation,” which runs more than three hours, was sold as a sensation and became one; it was shown at gala screenings, with expensive tickets. It was also the subject of protest by civil-rights organizations and critiques by clergymen and editorialists, and for good reason: “Birth of a Nation” proved horrifically effective at sparking violence against blacks in many cities. Given these circumstances, it’s hard to understand why Griffith’s film merits anything but a place in the dustbin of history, as an abomination worthy solely of autopsy in the study of social and aesthetic pathology.
