History

brilliants [131]3 years ago
4 0

American Protestants were afraid of the increased catholic immigration since <u>they felt threatened by the idea of America becoming a Catholic country. </u>

  • On the one hand, Catholics believed a different Christianity than Protestants. Protestants, as opposed to the Catholic church, thought the following:
  1. Less hierarchy in church structure.
  2. The Bible and, not the sacraments, as source of revelation from God
  3. Jesus as the only necessary intercessor with God.
  • There was an prejudice from anti-catholics that has to do with social class or status of the inmigrants. <u>Protestants from upper classes</u>, believed that the inmigrants were poor, therefore, they associated them with crime, danger and laziness.
  • The fear from the American protestants created by the massive flow of catholic inmigrants, was so big that even a popular national organization, the <u>American Protective Association</u>, was founded to promote anti-Catholicism.

ankoles [38]

The colonial boundaries created countries where they did not exist, separated tribal groups in many cases, and often brought

Between 1881 and 1911, the entire African continent (with few exceptions) was conquered by seven European countries. The indigenous peoples found themselves integrated into the political and economic structures created by the European colonizers, finding themselves subjected to them.

The elites of indigenous peoples (such as tribal leaders) enjoyed some advantages, such as some social positions, but Africans were generally excluded from political decisions. Finally, colonialism led to an impoverishment also in cultural terms, as well as an impossibility of political independence of the territory.
