I have no misgivings about, or lack of confidence in the cause in which I am engaged, and my courage does not halt or falter. I

know how strongly American Civilization now leans on the triumph of the Government and how great a debt we owe to those who went before us through the blood and sufferings of the Revolution. And I am willing—perfectly willing—to lay down all my joys in this life, to help maintain this Government, and to pay that debt. Read this excerpt from a letter by Civil War soldier Sullivan Ballou. Which cause does Ballou support?

Answer:

Ballou supported the Union.

Explanation:

The excerpt written by Sullivan Ballou, shown in the question above, shows how he felt in debt to those who fought during the American Revolution to create the government he knew, so it was his duty to support that government and to fight without any doubt or doubt. lack of confidence that this government would be maintained and strengthened.

These thoughts could not arise from a soldier of the Confederate cause, because Confederate soldiers believed that the government was unfair to the southern states and therefore that government should be undone and the Confederate states (the southern states) should be withdrawn of that government and create its own government.

For this reason, we can say that Sullivan Ballou supported the cause of the northern states, that is, the Union.

Which of the following best summarizes how the conflicts in Rwanda in 1944 are related to the holocaust
Alex73 [517]
If the possible answers are:
<span>a. The events in Rwanda show that genocide can still happen, despite the impact of the Holocaust.
b. The events in Rwanda show that genocide has stopped because of the effects of the Holocaust.
c. The events in Rwanda show that the international community has forgotten the impact of the Holocaust.
d. The events in Rwanda show that the international community no longer cares about the effects of the Holocaust.

Then the correct answer is </span>a. The events in Rwanda show that genocide can still happen, despite the impact of the Holocaust.

The genocide in Rwanda happened after the holocaust and shows that no matter how hard the community tries, such monstrosities can still happen. The genocide in Rwanda was based around the similar principle as that in Germany. There was a group who perceived that their ethnicity was higher than that of another ethnicity and tried to eliminate them completely.

valina [46]

If  my mind serves me correctly Islam came to the Southeast Asia, first by the way of Muslim traders along the main trade-route between Asia and the Far East, then was further spread by Sufi orders and finally consolidated by the expansion of the territories of converted rulers and their communities. Hope this helps

In the 1920 how did the U.S. try to promote prosperity
I am Lyosha [343]
Hello

In the presidential election of 1920, the overwhelming victory of the Republican nominee, Warren G. Harding, was final evidence of the general repudiation of Wilson's internationalism and idealism. As journalist William Allen White explained, the American people were "tired of issues, sick at heart of ideals, and weary of being noble."

The 1920 election was also the first in which women throughout the nation voted for a presidential candidate. In 1919 Congress had submitted to the states the 19th Amendment, which was ratified in time to permit women to vote the following year.

In keeping with the prevailing prosperity (at least in the urban areas of the country), governmental policy during the 1920s was eminently conservative. It was based upon the belief that if government did what it could to foster private business, prosperity would eventually encompass most of the rest of the population.

Accordingly, Republican policies were intended to create the most favorable conditions for U.S. industry. The tariff acts of 1922 and 1930 brought tariff barriers to new heights, guaranteeing U.S. manufacturers in one field after another a monopoly of the domestic market. The second of these tariffs, the Smoot-Hawley Act of 1930, embodied rates so high that more than 1,000 economists petitioned President Herbert Hoover to veto it: subsequent events bore out their predictions of costly retaliation by other nations. At the same time, the federal government started a program of tax cuts, reflecting Treasury Secretary Andrew Mellon's belief that high income taxes prevented the rich from investing in new industrial enterprises. Congress, in a series of laws passed between 1921 and 1929, responded favorably to his proposals that wartime taxes on income, excess profit taxes and corporation taxes be repealed outright or drastically reduced.

"The chief business of the American people is business," declared Calvin Coolidge, the dour, Vermont-born vice president who succeeded to the presidency in 1923 after Harding's death, and was elected in his own right in 1924. Coolidge hewed to the conservative economic policies of the Republican Party, but he was a much abler administrator than the hapless Harding, whose administration was mired in charges of corruption in the months before his death.

Throughout the 1920s, private business received substantial encouragement, including construction loans, profitable mail-carrying contracts and other indirect subsidies. The Transportation Act of 1920, for example, had already restored to private management the nation's railways, which had been under government control during the war. The Merchant Marine, which had been owned and largely operated by the government from 1917 to 1920, was sold to private operators.

Republican policies in agriculture, however, were meeting mounting criticism, for farmers shared least in the prosperity of the 1920s. The period from 1900 to 1920 had been one of general farm prosperity and rising farm prices, with the unprecedented wartime demand for U.S. farm products providing a strong stimulus to production. Farmers had opened up poor lands long allowed to remain idle or never before cultivated. As the value of U.S. farms increased, farmers began to buy goods and machinery that they had never before been able to afford. But by the end of 1920, with the abrupt end of wartime demand, the commercial agriculture of staple crops such as wheat and corn fell into sharp decline. Many factors accounted for the depression in American agriculture, but foremost was the loss of foreign markets. U.S. farmers could not easily sell in areas where the United States was not buying goods because of its own import tariff. The doors of the world market were slowly swinging shut. When the general depression struck in the 1930s, it merely shattered agriculture's already fragile state.
