How did the World War One affect the social, political and economic status of women?
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

World War I's impact on women's roles in society was immense. Women were conscripted to fill empty jobs left behind by the male servicemen, and as such, they were both idealized as symbols of the home front under attack and viewed with suspicion as their temporary freedom made them "open to moral decay. Even if the jobs they held during the war were taken away from the women after demobilization, during the years between 1914 and 1918, women learned skills and independence, and, in most Allied countries, gained the vote within a few years of the war's end. The role of women in the First World War has become the focus of many devoted historians in the past few decades, especially as it relates to their social progress in the years that followed.

alexandr1967 [171]
A jury made up of colonists and Indians found three Wampanoag men guilty for Sassamon's murder and hanged them on June 8, 1675. Their execution incensed Philip, whom the English had accused of plotting Sassamon's murder, and ignited tensions between the Wampanoag and the colonists, setting the stage for war.

Answer:

He led a revolutionary army to fight for New Granada's  independence

Explanation:

In 1811, Simón Bolívar, military and political, proclaimed the independence of the then New Granada. Bolivar decided first to fight for the independence of New Granada (which was a viceroyalty), intending to later consolidate the independence of Venezuela and other politically less significant Spanish territories.

Due to the resistance of the Spanish, only in 1819, the Republic of Colombia was created, the first constitution was promulgated, and Simón Bolívar was declared president. In 1821, the region was called Great-Colombia, and the leadership of that great area was given to him.
