The generalizations about city  government during the Gilded Age which are true as follows:

B. They weren't able to provide basic services  like clean water and fire protection.

D. They faced accusations of corruption.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The Gilded Age is characterized as the era between the Civil War and World War I during which the U.S. economy and population expanded rapidly, a bunch of political bribery and corporate financial misdealing occurred, and several wealthy individuals stayed very pricey lifestyles.

Mark Twain and Charles Dudley Warner became the first to label golden age the period after the Civil War. It was knocked by what they viewed as the marketplace's unchecked gambling and trading madness, and fraud enveloping national politics, they disparaged a world whose major issues, they thought, had been obscured by a thin gold covering.

What are facts about Islam culture
V125BC [204]


1) "Islam" means "surrender" or "submission". "Salam" (which means "peace") is the root word of "Islam". In a religious context the word "Islam" means "the surrendering of one's will (without compulsion) to the true will of God in an effort to achieve peace".

2) "Muslim" means "anyone or anything that surrenders itself to the true will of God". By this definition, everything in nature (trees, animals, planets, etc.) are "muslims" because they are in a state of surrender to God's will. In other words, they are fulfilling the purpose for which God created them.

3) Islam is not a new religion or cult. It is a universal way of life and civilization. Studies show that between 1.5 and 1.8 billion people in the world identify their religion as Islam. Along with Judaism and Christianity it traces its roots through Prophet Abraham and back to the first humans Adam and Eve.

4) There are five pillars of practice in Islam. These practices must be undertaken with the best of effort in order to be considered a true Muslim: A) Declaration of faith in One God and that Muhammad is a prophet of God. B) Formal prayer five times a day. C) Poor-due "tax" - 2.5% of one's excess wealth given to the needy once a year. D) Fasting during the daylight hours in the month of Ramadan. E) Pilgrimage to Mecca at least once, if physically and financially able.

5) There are six articles of faith in Islam. These are the basic beliefs that one must have in order to be considered a true Muslim. They are belief in: A) the One God. B) all of the true prophets of God. C) the original scriptures revealed to Moses, David, Jesus and Muhammad. D) the angels. E) the Day of Judgment and the Hereafter. F) destiny.

6) Islam is a complete way of life that governs all facets of life: moral, spiritual, physical, intellectual, social, economical, etc.

7) Islam is one of the fastest growing religions in the world. To become Muslim, a person of any race or culture must say a simple statement, the shahadah, that bears witness to the belief in the One God and that Muhammad is a prophet of God.

8) "Allah" is an Arabic word that means "God". Muslims also believe that "Allah" is the personal name of God.

9) Allah is not the God of Muslims only. He is the God of all people and all creation. Just because people refer to God using different terms does not mean there are different gods. Many Hispanics refer to God as "Dios" and many French refer to God as "Dieu" yet they mean the same God. Many Arab Jews and Arab Christians call God "Allah" and the word "Allah" (in Arabic script) appears on the walls of many Arab churches and on the pages of Arabic Bibles. Although the understanding of God may differ between the various faith groups, it does not change the fact that the One Lord and Creator of the Universe is the God of all people.

10) The Islamic concept of God is that He is loving, merciful and compassionate. Islam also teaches that He is all-knowing and the perfect judge of affairs, and will punish (or forgive) accordingly. However, Allah once said to Muhammad, “My mercy prevails over my wrath”. So Islam teaches a balance between fear and hope, protecting one from both complacency and despair.

What term did thorstein veblen use to refer to the behavior of those at the top of the social hierarchy when they engage in such
KengaRu [80]

The answer is: Conspicuous Consumption

Conspicuous consumption is the type of consumption that is not made to fulfill your basic needs to survive, it's made for sophistication or to increase your social status.  

Jetting off to a remote destination for dinner is definitely very inefficient if the sole purpose is only to absorb necessary nutrients to your body. Sophistication or social status would most likely become the factors in such dinner activity.
