The main reason why the Reapportionment Act of 1929 was passed was because Congressional redistricting had gotten out of control to the point where people were losing votes.

Correct answer:

The Reapportionment Act of 1929 was due to population changes. The population changes were due to the increase in immigration and the great change of population from rural to urban areas from 1910 to 1920. By the year 1929 no redistribution had taken place since 1911 and there was inequity in representation. For example some states had districts twice as large as others due to demographic change.

A.  Social Darwinism

Now largely discredited, social Darwinism was advocated by Herbert Spencer and others in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and was used to justify political conservatism, imperialism, and racism and to discourage intervention and reform."</span>

Softa [21]

Answer:

The answer is glass.

Explanation:

That the Mycenaean civilization had trading contact with other Aegean cultures is evidenced by the presence of foreign goods in Mycenaean settlements such as gold, ivory, copper and glass and by the discovery of Mycenaean goods such as pottery in places as far afield as Egypt, Mesopotamia, the Levant, Anatolia, Sicily, and Cyprus.

From what country did jamaica gain its independence
alexgriva [62]
Jamaica gained it's Independence from Britain in 1962, though is was ruled by the Spanish for over 100 years prior to the British taking control in 1655. Britain held onto Jamaica for a whopping 307 years. Independence was and is considered a good thing by many Jamaicans, but in the modern era, almost 60% of Jamaican citizens say they'd prefer to be ruled by the British again, very different from most former British colonies.
