History

The cornerstone was providing universal healthcare.

This was the cornerstone of his first term because it's the idea around which his entire campaign was developed. He, being a democrat, supported the idea of universal health care and tried to implement many new programs that would help people. The universal healthcare idea is still problematic however even to this day.

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer: Among the factors that slowed George Bush's popularity are rising taxes and rising fuel prices.

Explanation:

George HW Bush was President of the United States of America between 1989 and 1993, during his tenure various events of great importance took place, such as the end of the Soviet Union, the fall of the Berlin Wall, the end of the Cold War and the Persian Gulf war.

How did the Mayan civilization end? List at least four possible causes.
cestrela7 [59]
One by one, the Classic cities in the southern lowlands were abandoned, and by A.D. 900, Maya civilization in that region had collapsed. The reason for this mysterious decline is unknown, though scholars have developed several competing theories. which is Maya had exhausted the environment around them to the point that it could no longer sustain a very large population. <span>Other Maya scholars argue that constant warfare among competing city-states led the complicated military, family (by marriage) and trade alliances between them to break down, along with the traditional system of dynastic power. As the stature of the holy lords diminished, their complex traditions of rituals and ceremonies dissolved into chaos. Finally, some catastrophic environmental change–like an extremely long, intense period of drought–may have wiped out the Classic Maya civilization. Drought would have hit cities like Tikal–where rainwater was necessary for drinking as well as for crop irrigation–especially hard</span>

Summarize How have the natural resources of the Middle East affected it recent history?
puteri [66]

Answer:

As the two most important resources in the region, water and oil have caused such conflicts. Oil is the most abundant resource in the Middle East, and many countries' economies are dependent on it. However, oil is not equally distributed between all countries.

Explanation:

Oil money has created both opportunities and problems for the region.

An empty filling station, Portland, Oregon, November 1973. The Arab oil embargo caused a huge shortage of gasoline in Western countries. [ enlarge ]

Middle Eastern nations have learned to manipulate their production of oil as an international strategy. After the unsuccessful Yom Kippur War with Israel in 1973, an OPEC oil embargo by Arab nations demonstrated a new way to influence European and American policy. Oil prices quadrupled from $3 a barrel in 1972 to $12 a barrel in 1974. In the U.S., the era of cheap gas came to an end, stimulating research on increasing energy efficiency, conservation, and alternative fuels as well as exploration for alternative sources of oil.

Uneven distribution of petroleum deposits has created a disparity of wealth and power in the Middle East. Gulf countries with relatively small populations have the most oil. When workers from countries with large, poor populations, such as Egypt, come to the Gulf region to work, they are often treated as second-class citizens. Meanwhile, wealthy Saudis and Kuwaitis may vacation in Egypt, openly drinking alcohol and displaying other behaviors that would not be permitted in their home countries. Even within oil-rich nations themselves, there is a large gap between rich and poor.
