iris [78.8K]3 years ago
6 0
Because of resources. The more colonies there were, the more resources and land the nation could have for itself. Not only would you have access to natural resources such as gold or something similar, but also to other things such as animals for hunting which is something that the french colonies were famous for since they traded fur mostly. More resources equals more wealth and more wealth equals more power.

At the Paris Peace Conference, President Wilson argued that Germany should be rebuilt with the help of the Allies. treated with
Art [367]

Answer:

At the Paris Peace Conference, President Wilson argued that Germany should be forced to pay reparations to the Allies.

Explanation:

The Pariz Peace Conference of 1919 was a conclave in which the victorious powers of World War I met to outline the conditions under which the peace that would conclude said conflict would be signed. These four nations were America, Britain, France and Italy, who had different positions, ambitions and requirements.

Of all these nations, America, represented by President Wilson, was the one seeking a more just and lasting peace. Thus, although it identified Germany as the aggressor nation and condemned it to pay the corresponding war reparations, it did not seek the total dismantling of the economic and productive capacity of Germany, as if it were done by France, Italy and to a lesser extent Britain, who saw Germany as a threat to their own interests and sought, in addition to paying reparations, other types of harsher sanctions.

Describe what the cotton gin was and explain how it impacted the United States in the early to mid- 1800s
Alekssandra [29.7K]

The cotton gin was innovated by Eli Whitney and is important to the 1800d because of what it did to the innovation of cotton production in the south. Prior to the machine, enslaved people were forced to hand process cotton, now with the machine, more cotton was able to be processed faster which allowed for slavery to continue and expand in the south so that more cotton could be sold to Britian (who did not have the land for cotton growing) and the northern factories to be made into clothes (increasing production of the industrial revolution especially with the Lowell mills). This will be important later with the Civil War as the south believes that Britian will support them because of their trading history and need for cotton (which of course is not done, due to racial tensions between the newly freed persons of Britian and the enslaved system of the South).
