The correct answer is false.

It is false that the construction of the Aswan High Dam was beneficial to the people of Egypt, and it caused no negative effects.

The construction of the Aswan High Dam was finished on July 21, 1970. It was started in 1959 and when it was ready, it had many benefits such as controlled irrigation and electricity production but also has negative consequences to people and environmental effects.

The Soviet Union financially supported Egyptian President Abdel Nasser to construct de Aswan High Dam and it was necessary to relocate the monumental Abu Simble site that had been built by ancient Egyptians.

As a good American citizen, it is important to respect the diversity of this country. Unfortunately discrimination has been got
creativ13 [48]

It is difficult to suggest a course of action as no one knows what the perfect answer to this is. However, one strategy that seems to reduce the incidence of discriminatory practices is that of facilitating the interaction of people of many different races and backgrounds. Most of the time, discrimination comes from a fear of the unknown. People have prejudices and biases towards people who are different from them and this affects how they think about them. However, when people spend time in diverse communities, they tend to become more tolerant and accepting of those who are different to them.

lilavasa [31]

All of the following contributed to the failure of the Sepoy Mutiny except the numerical superiority of the British troops.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

The Sepoy Mutiny was a rebellious movement that was stirred when the British touched the culture of Muslims and Hindus. It all started when the Sepoy where asked to load 303 rifle manually by biting the cartridge at the end.  

The cartridge was greased with beef tallow and pig fat which caused a revolt because it was forbidden to touch pig fat for the Muslims and beef tallow was untouchable by the Hindus.

When India was under the British rule the British had enormous troops with well supplied war necessities. Hence the Indians were tormented.When people refused to load the gun 85 of them were imprisoned.They broke out the prison and killed all the Europeans they met in sight.

Answer:

The Battle of Shiloh in April 1862

Explanation:
