They were seeking to organize and advance the <u>women's suffrage</u> movement.

The national meeting in Seneca Falls, New York, in 1848, was the first women's rights convention to be held in the United States, and was organized by women.  Elizabeth Cady Stanton was not only a key organizer along with Lucretia Mott.  Stanton also was the lead author of an important document issued by what we now call the "Seneca Falls Convention."  The <em>Declaration of Sentiments</em> was signed by 68 women and 32 men who had been among the participants in the convention. The document was modeled after Thomas Jefferson's <em>Declaration of Independence.</em>  In the way that Jefferson had listed grievances against the British monarchy, the <em>Declaration of Sentiments</em> listed grievances against how man had oppressed woman in regard to civil rights.  Here's a small sample of some of the "sentiments" which were expressed:

<em>The history of mankind is a history of repeated injuries and usurpation on the part of man toward woman, having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over her. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world:</em>

  • <em>He has not ever permitted her to exercise her inalienable right to the elective franchise.</em>
  • <em>He has compelled her to submit to laws, in the formation of which she had no voice.</em>
  • <em>He has withheld her from rights which are given to the most ignorant and degraded men—both natives and foreigners.</em>
  • <em>Having deprived her of this first right as a citizen, the elective franchise, thereby leaving her without representation in the halls of legislation, he has oppressed her on all sides.</em>

What are the similarities of the upper class in Ancient Rome and Ancient Greece.
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

Both Greece and Rome are Mediterranean countries, similar enough latitudinally for both to grow wine and olives. However, their terrains were quite different. The ancient Greek city-states were separated from each other by hilly countryside and all were near the water.

Both Greek and roman residents practiced polytheist religion. The Greeks focused on life on earth and believed man would be judged on earth and his deeds both good and bad would follow him into afterlife while the Romans believed that one's actions if proper and many would make one god in heaven.

East and West Germans were united in:<br> a. 1990<br> b. 1991<br> c. 1992<br> d. 1993
daser333 [38]
November 9, 1989 marks the fall of the Berlin Wall in Germany but it was not until October 3, 1990, when East and West Berlin were united after 45 years of division.

It all started in 1945 after the Nazi surrendered to the Allied Four. Through the Potsdam agreement Germany was split into four zones which, at first would be governed by the USA, Great Britain, France and USSR. Their purpose was to run it as a single country, but due to ideological differences, the country was split into West Germany and East Germany. East Germany, being controlled by the Soviets and West Berlin or the free market west. East Germany closed its ties with the West in 1952 and in 1961 built the Wall in the city, preventing East Germans from escaping to West Germany.
