Answer:

Grant and Sherman used the strategy of total war to shorten the war in their favor, using the many deaths of enemies to save lives on their side. We may never know if more would've died if they didn't use the tactic, but in my opinion civilian lives were not theirs to take. Soldiers agreed to die, but civilians didn't, making total war, in my opinion, not right. Others may say that their lives were a necessary sacrifice towards a common goal, but, in my opinion, if one side uses total war, can't the other side use it too for a horrible end? Form your own opinion, but that is mine.

Answer:

Generals Grant and Sherman saw the Confederancy as an oppoent to be totally defeated if they wanted to stop the war once and for all.

Explanation:

American Civil war was a harsh confict for both parties. From the side of the Union, general Grant and Sherman were radicals with their intention of finishing the war. This is why they promoted a total war strategy to destroy the Confederacy backbone devastating cities. It was an effective strategy to weaken the Confederacy with the side effect of the death of civilans. For those two generals, it was worth it to end the war.

Imagine that you have been asked to help plan a Juneteenth celebration for your town or city. Leadership has asked the community
12345 [234]

Answer: To The City Council:

I believe that a citywide Juneteenth celebration should be started this year, and be an annual celebration.  

Juneteenth has become an annual celebration all across the United States. It has also been known as Emancipation Day, Freedom Day, Second Independence Day, and Liberation Day. It marks the day that the last enslaved people were freed in Texas in 1865. Even though the Emancipation Proclamation had been signed two years earlier, many enslaved people in the South did not know they were free until Juneteenth. Ever since, the descendants of enslaved peoples and their friends and supporters have celebrated this special day of freedom.

Our citywide activities should be similar to traditional celebrations, and feature speeches by local leadership on the meaning of Juneteenth, dramatic presentations by local actors and singers, cooking lessons that recreate traditional foods, and traditional music performances, such as the important song "Lift Every Voice and Sing."

This celebration would be a tremendous way to unify our community around an important day for us, and should be held annually.

Sincerely,

Answer: The Renaissance was a time of cultural, scientific, intellectual, and political development. New ideas were being built up that lead to expanded interest about the world.  

Scientists started to challenge the idea that the world was flat. With new advancement in navigational technologies , and the development of new ships, it wound up simpler to explore the world. As European nations searched for a shorter route to Asia, they took a risk on financing explorations. They trusted that by finding a shorter course to Asia, they would grow more exchange and get more money.

With the Renaissance's incitement, the advancement of new scientific ideas, and enhancements in navigational devices and ships, the wheels were gotten underway for new explorations that at last prompted the discovery of the Americas.
