They were both very wary of one another. The two countries ended up rising up to be some of the most powerful military powers in the world, and both followed completely different ideologies, however, as well as this, they had both a very large stockpile of nuclear weapons. A war could almost assuredly lead to the use of these weapons, which would cause MAD, or Mutually Assured Destruction, which is a catastrophic end-of-the-world scenario in which two or more great powers launch multiple nuclear weapons to destroy each other, taking down the entire world with them. This fear of MAD caused both sides to simply go to threats and undercover operations, instead of outright wars.

A community of French immigrants lived in Acadia, the region off the eastern coast of Canada, until they were expelled by Britis
Sauron [17]

Answer:

Members of the community of French immigrants that lived in Acadia, the region off the eastern coast of Canada, until they were expelled by British troops and forced to migrate, mainly to southern Louisiana, were known as Cajuns.

Explanation:

Cajuns are a sub-ethnic group, peculiar in culture and origin, represented mainly in the southern part of Louisiana.

They are the largest ethnic minority in Louisiana, accounting for about 4% of the state’s population, whose linguistic rights are partially officially recognized in the state. Most cajuns speak English, but retain a commitment to their culture, lifestyle and especially national cuisine. They also speak Cajun dialect of French.

The deportation of the Acadians from Canada, after the French and Indian War, led to the emergence of the Acadian diaspora in many regions of the world. In total, from 1755 to 1763, by order of the British governor Charles Lawrence, over 10,000 residents of the former French territories (Acadia and Nova Scotia) were deported. More than half of them died in the holds of ships transporting them to prisons of the British colonies in the territory of the present USA and even to the Falkland Islands. Some of them (over 3,000) moved to Louisiana, where they, Catholics, were welcomed by the Spanish administration and the large French population of New Orleans. Later, a special ethnographic group formed in rural Louisiana.

EastWind [94]
The correct answer is <span>Supporters of the convict lease system to use leased labor for public works projects

She believed that the convict lease system was wrong because it provided convicts as a cheap labor force to private companies and these convicts would have to live and work in unbearable conditions because they were prisoners and didn't have a right to choose or anything, they were forced to do it.</span>
