1 answer:

3 0

The Industrial Revolution inspired a more manufacturing based economy. Rather than focusing their time solely out in the fields, people began to move into cities to work in factories. It also greatly changed their labor system. There were more job opportunities for women, as their smaller hands were better at working in places such as textile factories. Until child labor laws were passed, many children were also hired for jobs better fit for smaller people. Economic ideologies such as capitalism and socialism really developed as well as countries began to see a major shift in the wealth and how they obtained their wealth and realized they had to change the structure of their economy too.

D) Found themselves increasingly left out of the political process because of poll taxes and literacy tests.

Explanation:

After the Civil War, despite their defeat and the passing of the 14th Amendment in 1868, southern states passed legislation whose practical purpose was to keep black people, formally free, in poverty, without access to education and being unable to exercise their civic rights such as voting. Those laws later became known as the Jim Crow laws. Black Americans lived in a segregation system de facto in the South that denied them dignity and a decent living standard.

Determine whether the following characteristics describe conditions in Germany before or after unification.

yuradex [85]

written constitution = after unification
During revolutions in 1848-1849, the Frankfurt Parliament had produced a constitution for a unified Germany, but that move was rejected at the time by the king of Prussia, to whom the constitution was offered. 

300 German states = before unification
The German states had a long history of sovereignty in their individual territories. Unification meant bringing all those states together into one national entity.

trade facilitated in the region = before unification
The Zollverein, or customs union, was created between the German states in the 1830s. This eliminated customs tariffs between states and was a step that began moving in the direction of unification.

risk of French aggression = before unification
Germany became a united empire after the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-71. Victory over France in that war by the German states operating as a coalition was part of what brought about unification.

boundaries changed by Napoleon = before unification
When Napoleon conquered territories throughout Europe in the early 1800s, he rearranged borders to enhance his empire's management of conquered territories. In the German states, this made them work together in ways they had not before, and was a catalyst toward desires for unification.

two-house legislature = after unification
There was a legislature in the North German Confederation (1867-1870), which preceded unification. But that was a single-house (unicameral) parliament, whereas the Reichstag (legislature) of the unified German Empire was bicameral.

IRINA_888 [86]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.

The historical events prior to the expansion of sea travel that contributed to the Growth of interconnection across oceans during the period from 1450-the 1700s were the financial support that King of Spain Ferdinand Magallanes and Queen Isabella del Castille gave to Portuguese sailor Cristopher Columbus to explore a new sailing route to the West Indies.

Columbus had a crew divided into three ships: "La Niña," "La Pinta," y "La Santa María. This trip ended up being a success when Columbus discovered America on October 12, 1492.

After this major event, European exploration led to dominance in the Atlantic and Indian Oceans and over the people in Africa and the Americas.
