Absolute monarchy would mean that the ruler or king would have absolute power over his country. For example, a king that has the ability to absolutely anything he wants to his country, whether the people like it or not.
Beginning at the end of the nineteenth century, immigration into the United States rocketed to never-before-seen heights. Many of these new immigrants were coming from eastern and southern Europe and for many English-speaking, native-born Americans of northern European descent the growing diversity of new languages, customs, and religions triggered anxiety and racial animosity.
In reaction, some embraced nativism, prizing white Americans with older family trees over more recent immigrants and rejecting outside influences in favor of their own local customs. Nativists also stoked a sense of fear over the perceived foreign threat, pointing to the anarchist assassinations of the Spanish prime minister in 1897, the Italian king in 1900, and even President William McKinley in 1901 as proof. Following the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia in November 1917, the sense of an inevitable foreign or communist threat grew among those already predisposed to distrust immigrants.
The sense of fear and anxiety over the rising tide of immigration came to a head with the trial of Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti. Sacco and Vanzetti were Italian immigrants who were accused of participating in a robbery and murder in Braintree, Massachusetts, in 1920. There was no direct evidence linking them to the crime, but—in addition to being immigrants—both men were anarchists who favored the destruction of the American market-based, capitalistic society through violence. At their trial, the district attorney emphasized Sacco and Vanzetti’s radical views, and the jury found them guilty on July 14, 1921.
Despite subsequent motions and appeals based on ballistics testing, recanted testimony, and an ex-convict’s confession, both men were executed on August 23, 1927.
Answer:
1.Popular Sovereignty. The principle of popular sovereignty was the basis for every new State constitution.
2.The major features of the articles of confederation were the establishment of the confederation as 'The United States of America', and an explanation of the rights possessed by any state and the amount of power that the state were entitled to.
3.The Federalists wanted to replace the Articles of Confederation because they believed that the structure the Articles laid out did not provide enough power for the federal (or national) government to effectively solve problems.
4.Anti-Federalists argued that the Constitution gave too much power to the federal government, while taking too much power away from state and local governments. Many felt that the federal government would be too far removed to represent the average citizen.
Answer:
C. Increasing the size and influence of various labor unions.
Explanation:
The Wagner Act of 1935, also known as the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA), is an act enacted in the law to ensure the rights of the workers and draft legal structure for labor unions to work under.
The Wagner Act was instrumental in increasing the size and influence of various labor unions. The act ensured to protect and give the employees and workers right to self-organization, form their labor organizations, or join and assist them.
Therefore, option C is correct.
D) Increased immigration in industrial areas.
By 1890, production by factories in American had grown eight times larger than what it had been before 1860. A large part of the workforce came from immigrants coming to the United States and settling in cities, looking for jobs. Ireland was one example of a country from which many immigrants came, looking for work in America, after the devastation of famine in Ireland (especially from potato crop failures).
