Answer:

C. Chinese Exclusion Act

Explanation:

The Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 was a law enacted to exclude an entire ethnic group in the U.S: the Chinese people. The act prohibited Chinese skilled and unskilled laborers from immigrating to the United States. As a result, the number of Chinese immigrants in the United States significantly decreased and the Chinese population decreased by almost half in 40 years.

The exclusion was mainly prompted for years of racial hostility and for American stereotyping of the Chinese as degraded, exotic, dangerous, and competitors for jobs and wages.

a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

The second Persian invasion of Greece (480–479 BC) occurred during the Greco-Persian Wars, as King Xerxes I of Persia sought to conquer all of Greece. The invasion was a direct, if delayed, response to the defeat of the first Persian invasion of Greece (492–490 BC) at the Battle of Marathon, which ended Darius I's attempts to subjugate Greece. After Darius's death, his son Xerxes spent several years planning for the second invasion, mustering an enormous army and navy. The Athenians and Spartans led the Greek resistance. About a tenth of the Greek city-states joined the 'Allied' effort; most remained neutral or submitted to Xerxes.
