Great Famine, also called Irish Potato Famine, Great Irish Famine, or Famine of 1845–49, famine that occurred in Ireland in 1845–49 when the potato crop failed in successive years.

Answer:

Millions of people fleeing Ireland for the Americas

Explanation:

The great famine of Ireland was a period of illness, death and misery that occurred in the nineteenth century (1845-1852), which killed one million people and forced the emigration of millions of other Irish to North America. According to historians, the great hunger occurred because something like a fungus contaminated a large volume of potatoes, making it impossible to consume them and starving the Irish.

To what extent was reagan successful in reversing course from the liberalism of fdr and lbj?
hichkok12 [17]
Win for taxation policies--loss on reversing social welfare programs.

Reagan was able to reverse taxation and provide breaks for the upper classes to stimulate job growth and wages. However, programs like Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid were so heavily used he was not able to get rid of those programs. 

Reagan wanted to return to a country with free trade, laissez-faire policies, and limited government influence in the economy. However, some of the New Deal and Great Society programs had become widely used especially by the ever growing elderly population. Reagan was not able to stop these programs without major repercussions to his elderly base.<span />

Which of the following is an historical example of a cultural push factor?
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

d. The U.S. government's policy of relocating the North America's indigenous population to reservations in the West.

Explanation:

In the field of human geography, push factors refers to the reasons why people emigrate out from one place to another. Their opposites are the pull factors, which are the reasons why people immigrate to a new place coming from another.

There are three main push factors: economic, environmental, and cultural. In the provided answers, option a is an example of an economic push factor, as Mexican laborers moved to the US in search of the job opportunities given to them during World War II. Option b is clearly an environmental factor. Option c is another example of an economic factor, as Europeans farmers were motivated to emigrate looking for better economic conditions in the New World. Option e is another clear example of an environmental push factor.

Option d is the one cultural factor. Starting in 1830 with the passage of the Indian Removal Act, <u>the United States government forcibly relocated most of North America's indigenous population to reservations in the sparsely populated western part of the country</u>. In this case, discrimination against Native Americans was a huge cultural push factor. While many Indians tribes had already started to assimilate into American culture of the time, they were still widely seen as alien nations that had no real place in the United States, and they were forced to move in order to give their lands to white settlers.
