Answer:

cars

Explanation:

The construction of the Interstate Highway Network was authorized by the Federal Aid Highway Act of 1956, popularly known as the Interstate and Defense Highways Act of 1956.

It was a petition of the largest automobile manufacturers in the United States and promoted by President Dwight D. Eisenhower - influenced by his experiences as a young soldier crossing the United States in 1919 following the route of the Lincoln Highway and the knowledge of the motorway network German (Autobahnen) during World War II - as a necessary component of a national defense system. This would make possible a better displacement by land of troops and military supplies.

The design of a system of new superhighways began in the late 1930s, even before a federal committee formed to build the Interstate Highway System in the 1950s. In the 1920s, some roads, such as those in the New York area, were built as part of the local or state systems. As car traffic increased, there was a need for an interconnected national system that would complement the existing Federal Highway System of the United States. The publication of the Map of the Location of the Interstate Highway System is informally known as the Yellow Book Yellow Book.

The correct answer is cars.

The development of the Eisenhower Instate System during the 1950's resulted in the creation of an enormous amount of interconnected freeways and highways throughout the United States. With these new roads available, there was a significant increase in buying cars. This is because now citizens could travel from city to city and state to state on a much easier basis than ever before.

Develop an argument that evaluates the extent to which devshirme was similar or different from slavery in the Americas.
Katena32 [7]

Answer: Devshirma and slavery have both similarities and differences.

Explanation:

The Ottomans practiced Devshirma as a forcible abduction of Christian boys into the elite Ottoman army ranks. These boys were taken from their families and were enlisted in the elite Ottoman military ranks. Slavery, in itself, is a violent process of alienating people for forced labor. If we look at these definitions, they are similar in themselves. A slave could get his freedom in certain situations, but he always remained a slave during the service.

On the other hand, officials in the Ottoman Empire who found themselves in the state under the means of devshirme could advance in the service. There were many examples when people who became residents of the Ottoman Empire came to the country's highest positions. The Grand Ottoman Vizier Mehmed Pasha Sokolović had just arrived in the Ottoman capital, Constantinople, with a devshirme. He advanced so much in the service that after the sultan, he was the second man of the bulky Ottoman Empire. The very title of Grand Vizier in the empire implied that position.
