History

dalvyx [7]3 years ago

Answer:

The colonial citizens were able to influence the laws that governed them because they were allowed to choose and elect their own members of the legislature.

Explanation:

Colonial citizens had this advantage that they were able to choose members from their own people. They were able to make and amend their own laws.

Colonial citizens did not have this power before. After decades of tyranny and a lot of wars, certain rules were made.

Colonies were made throughout the world, countries would capture and land and make it their own without a care in the world. Whoever lived their before had no say because the people had no say in it. People who captured the lands were brutal enough to kill anyone who came in their way.

What was a goal of the Sherman Antitrust Act of 1890? (Help) (Which letter )
ch4aika [34]
The Sherman Antitrust Act was made to break up the trusts that were made in the government. For example, let's say BettaFlyer got into the presidential elections, if I vote for him and he wins, I will get a job in the government, that's a trust. Your answer would be B! Corporations could vote for a candidate and in return get something in the government.

Have a nice day! :)

What was the dominant model of federalism starting with the new deal?.science forum?
Ad libitum [116K]
The appropriate response is Cooperative. Albeit Cooperative Federalism has established in the common war, the Great Depression denoted a sudden end to Dual Federalism and a sensational move to a solid national government. President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal approaches ventured into the lives of U.S. nationals like no other government measure had.

How did the discovery of the Americas affect the people of Africa
insens350 [35]
Well, once the Americas were discovered and the colonist found that the soil was agreeable to grow different crops such as tobacco and cotton the colonists realized that they needed people to pick the crops. Originally indentured servants did the hard labor but then when they found that they could get labor by trading goods with African tribal leaders they resorted to importing Africans to the Americas as labor. The tribes in Africa were constantly fighting and whichever side won the losers became the slaves of the winning tribe. However, as Europeans brought valuable things to the continent of Africa such as weapons, salt, gold, and other things the leaders of the winning tribe would give their slaves to the Europeans. There were cases when Blacks captured other Blacks in Africa for the sole purpose of giving them to the European traders. Hopefully this helps. If you haven't see the movie La Amistad, it will explain in more detail what I have written. I learned a lot from that movie. I must warn you the first 5 to 10 minutes are a bit gory. I had a hard time watching that part.

President Taft's policies toward Latin America become known as "dollar diplomacy".
Oksana_A [137]

Answer: True

Explanation:

Dollar diplomacy was a form of US foreign policy developed by President William Howard Taft, which consisted of using the economic power of the United States over Latin America and East Asia (with loans), rather than using military force.

It should be noted that it was President Roosevelt (Taft's predecessor) who laid the foundation for this policy. All this in order to protect the interests of the United States in Latin America, by encouraging stability in those countries and expanding US commercial interests in those nations.
