In 1788, the colonization of Austria began ... * ahem * Australia In Europe, meanwhile, one Cake raged. As a result of the war, Great Britain captured the Ionian Islands, Malta, Seychelles, Mauritius, Saint Lucia, Tobago; Trinidad was taken from Spain, Guyana and the Cape colony from the Netherlands. In Asia, Britain had the goal of spreading its influence in India and China. The British ruled India with the help of the East India Company, and for a long time it was effective. Moreover, the principalities are governed by locals who are subordinate to the British (if that has always been a hired army. You never know) However, everything comes to an end. Namely: in 1858, these mercenaries decided to set up a bund. The riot was suppressed, the problem is different. Who to trust now? So the British thought and established direct control over India, thereby laying the foundation for British India. In 1858, Queen Victoria was crowned as Empress of India. In China, they traded in drugs. So what? It may be mean, but how else to get at least something from this China? Only the Chinese did not really like it. Because of what the Opium Wars began. As a result of the first, Britain received the island of Hong Kong in 1842. Let's dig into Russia for a minute. What is she? Yes ... ... The Persians and the Ottomans only win ... And they may invade India. “If a fight is inevitable - hit first”, Britain thought, and hit ... No, not Russia (it will be a little later), but Afghanistan. But Britain did not succeed (yes, and it happens). Later, Britain and Russia will fight for Afghanistan, but no one will conquer it. In Africa, there were conflicts with the Boers - former residents of the Cape Colony, who were driven out by the British. The Boers founded their own states, which the British tried to capture, but they succeeded only in 1902 In 1869, the Suez Canal was founded. In the 1880s, Egypt came under British control (although not direct). In the same 1880s, Europeans began to colonize Africa. And who, if not Britain, will not join the sharing.
The social critics of the enlightenment in France were called philosophes. Five concepts formed the core of their beliefs: reason, nature, happiness, progress, and liberty. François Marie Arouet, under the pen name Voltaire, was one of the most brilliant and influential philosophers.
He feared religion could become a source of civil war. ... Enlightenment thinkers wanted to improve human conditions on earth rather than concern themselves with religion and the afterlife. These thinkers valued reason, science, religious tolerance, and what they called “natural rights”—life, liberty, and property.
<u>My suggestions to the framers of the constitution would have been that:
</u>
women should have be given equal right to vote
slavery should have been abolished
<u>
Explanation:
</u>
The U.S. Constitution which came into effect on March 4th 1789, had certain patent flaws which led to unrest in the country on many occasions. On of such flaw was that the voting rights was constricted only to the property owners and powerful sect of the population.
Women were deprived of right to vote until 19th Amendment, ratified in the year 1920. Another flaw was that the constitution did not abolish slavery when it came into effect but was abolished only after the Civil War by the 13th Amendment, ratified on December 6th 1865.
