Answer: False

Explanation: The Maryland colony was founded as a religious refuge for Roman Catholics and not Quakers.  

Before it was a refuge, the King of England at the time, King Charles the first, granted Lord Baltimore a charter allowing settlement on the East of the Pontomac river in 1632 for commercial purpose. However, before this could be realized, Lord Baltimore died and his son, George Calvert made the colony a refuge for Roman Catholics who were being persecuted in England.

List as many problems for the workers in Russian city factories as you can
aalyn [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Forced off the land, millions of peasants came into the towns, or worked in rural factories and mines. In the last half-century of the old regime the Empire's urban population grew from 7 to 28 million people.

Factory conditions were terrible. According to Count Witte, the Finance Minister in charge of Russia's industrialization until 1905, the worker 'raised on the frugal habits of rural life' was 'much more easily satisfied' than his counterpart in Europe or North America, so that 'low wages appeared as a fortunate gift to Russian enterprise'.

There was little factory legislation to protect labour. The two most important factory laws - one in 1885 prohibiting the night-time employment of women and children, and the other in 1897 restricting the working day to eleven and a half hours - had to be wrenched from the government. Small workshops were excluded from the legislation, although they probably employed the majority of the country's workforce, and certainly most of its female contingent.

Shopfloors were crammed with dangerous machinery: there were frequent accidents. Yet most workers were denied a legal right to insurance and, if they lost an eye or limb, could expect no more than a few roubles' compensation. Workers' strikes were illegal. There were no legal trade unions until 1905. Many factory owners treated workers like their serfs.

Russian workers were the most strike-prone in Europe during the 1900s. Three-quarters of the factory workforce went on strike in the revolutionary years of 1905-6.

At a friend's housewarming, you meet a young engaged couple from India. They tell you that their relationship was arranged when
TEA [102]

The most expectable answer is socialization.

This term is used to describe the process in which people learn the values, norms, and beliefs of a particular society/culture.

Therefore, for this indian couple, their early and previously-arranged marriage is nothing unusual because they were taught that's the most common thing for (indian) people to do. And you, well, you were taught differently; probably:  that is better to wait until you grow old enough, and are sufficiently independent, to support a household. So, you get a "cultural shock" by hearing about how this couple got married.

African-American marriages differ from Caucasian marriages in that there is greater equality between husband and wife—this is kn
matrenka [14]

Answer:

Egalitarian marriages.

Explanation:

Equal marriage is one in which both spouses work full time and contribute to the family. Both take care of the house or the children in the same way. The tasks assigned to each of them doesn't depend on their gender, for example, the task of cooking or washing the clothes can fall on either of them who has the time to do it, not only on women as is common in traditional marriage.

Likewise, making important decisions is a task of two, where both spouses decide and reach a mutual agreement on what is best for the family.
