The US pursued gradual engagement into the war in multiple ways. One of the most famous was the development of the Lend-Lease Act. This law created by the US government, allowed us to aid countries involved in World War II. The aid we gave to countries included financial assistance, military equipment (like tanks), airplanes and food. This assistance was given to countries like Great Britain, who was in the midst of trying to stop Hitler's reign in Europe.
Another example of gradual engagement included the Atlantic Charter. This document, signed in August of 1941 essentially laid out a plan for what would happen after Hitler is defeated. The US President (Franklin D. Roosevelt) worked with Great Britain's Prime Minister (Winston Churchill) to develop this plan. This was agreed upon, even though the US was not technically at war yet. The US would not enter World War II until December of 1941, right after the Japanese attack Pearl Harbor.
The Aztecs and the Mayans were two ancient societies in Meso America. The Mayan civilization goes back to about 1800-2000 BC and was in decline when the Spaniards arrived whereas the Aztecs were a much younger civilization that was at its peak when Cortez arrived. The Aztecs were located mostly in what is now Mexico whereas the Mayans were more in what is now Guatemala and Honduras. Both the Aztecs and Mayans believed in human sacrifice but the Aztecs did this much more than the Mayans. While the Aztecs layed out their cities according to celestial observances, the Mayans were more scientific and developed a calendar very similar to our modern calendar. The Aztecs had one supreme ruler whereas the Mayans had many city states like Uxmal in Guatemala and Copan in Honduras with local rulers.
Answer:
On November 27, 1095, Pope Urban II makes perhaps the most influential speech of the Middle Ages, giving rise to the Crusades by calling all Christians in Europe to war against Muslims in order to reclaim the Holy Land, with a cry of “Deus vult!” or “God wills it!”
Born Odo of Lagery in 1042, Urban was a protege of the great reformer Pope Gregory VII. Like Gregory, he made internal reform his main focus, railing against simony (the selling of church offices) and other clerical abuses prevalent during the Middle Ages. Urban showed himself to be an adept and powerful cleric, and when he was elected pope in 1088, he applied his statecraft to weakening support for his rivals, notably Clement III.Explanation:
The First Amendement (Freedom of Speech) was the basis for Charles Schenck's 1919 Supreme Court arguments that his distribution of flyers and leaflets during WWI to promote draft resistance among young men was Constitutional.
