Answer:

was due to violation of the Tenure of Office Act.

Explanation:

Andrew Johnson's impeachment began in 1868 on charges of violation of the Tenure of Office Act, which made the resignation of certain cabinet posts conditional upon prior Senate approval. Johnson had fired Secretary of Defense Edwin M. Stanton, a radical Republican, without prior consultation with the Senate.

IRISSAK [1]

Answer: It’s below, mark BRAINLIEST!

Explanation: So the major reason that Reconstruction was a failure was that ex-slaves were given no land of their own to farm, so they had no economic power.

Why do you think Plato felt he could not have a career in government?
Marrrta [24]

Plato contends we are all made of the same three parts yet not all have the parts aligned in a healthy balance. The result is that greed, ambition, and foolishness rule in these unbalanced people. Plato lived through the democratic period in Athens' government and through the oligarchy period when the conquering Spartans installed the wealthy oligarchists as rulers of Athens, a move that unleashed a fierce retribution of bloodshed upon the unseated democratic rulers.

Plato rejected the rule of the mistake prone and seemingly unreasoning democratic faction and equally rejected the oligarchic rule of the retaliatory wealthy elite. After a period of seclusion, Plato wrote the Republic. In it he describes human nature and uses human nature (as he described it) as a metaphor and template for a reasonable government.

He assigns ruling authority to those who have a functioning alignment and balance between their three constituent parts and a dominant dedication to the highest: (1: lowest) love of money (laboring and merchants classes), (2: middle-most class) love of honor (military), and (3: highest) love of wisdom ("scientists, scholars, high-level experts, and similar sophisticates" [Jorn K. Bramann]).

His idea is that the two models he has seen don't work, so a third is needed. That third model is to make a government out of those who have the best minds by virtue of being best trained, best informed and best balanced (in the quote below, take note of and understand the "or"):

Until philosophers are kings, or the kings and princes of this world have the spirit and power of philosophy, ... cities will never have rest from their evils. (Republic)

The Zimmerman telegram was a huge diplomatic mistake by _____.
jekas [21]

The correct answer is Germany.

During World War I, Germany attempted to send the Zimmerman Telegram to Mexico. In this telegram, the Germans asked Mexico to invade the United States. The Germans asked of this because they knew if the United States was fighting with Mexico, they would not get involved in World War I. This would increase the chances of German success in this war.

The Zimmerman Telegram, however, was intercepted by allied forces and given to the American government. After reading this telegram, the American government declared war on Germany, essentially having the exact opposite outcome that the Germans were hoping for.
