FinnZ [79.3K]3 years ago

Political machine were political groups that emerged in the late 19th Century that usually managed immigrants and set them up, if immigrants would vote for them in return political machines will provide food, housing and jobs for the immigrants. A Political group was commanded by a boss that had enough votes to maintain political and administrative control of a city, county or state.

The political machines were detracting the basic principles of economy and political freedom in the US by people doing voting and party work to get others to vote for them like some kind of slavery, owning people once consent was given by the weak one. From the economical point of view these political machines were trying to concentrate the economy on their side by using their political status to assigned government contracts and jobs to those that did favors to them and this way creating a big spiral of corruption and putting in danger the political an economical policies of US.

What impact might exploration of the Spanish borderlands have on the present-day United States?
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

Settling the Borderlands As conquistadors explored new territories, they claimed the areas for Spain. By 1600, the Spanish borderlands extended west from Florida across present-day Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and California. At first, Spain did little to encourage settlement in these far-flung areas.

What is the iron curtain? Explain in your own words.
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

a notional barrier separating the former Soviet bloc and the West prior to the decline of communism that followed the political events in eastern Europe in 1989.

Explanation:the political, military, and ideological barrier erected by the Soviet Union after World War II to seal off itself and its dependent eastern and central European allies from open contact with the West and other noncommunist areas. The term Iron Curtain had been in occasional and varied use as a metaphor since the 19th century, but it came to prominence only after it was used by the former British prime minister Winston Churchill in a speech at Fulton, Missouri, U.S., on March 5, 1946, when he said of the communist states, “From Stettin in the Baltic to Trieste in the Adriatic, an iron curtain has descended across the Continent.”

The restrictions and the rigidity of the Iron Curtain were somewhat reduced in the years following Joseph Stalin’s death in 1953, although the construction of the Berlin Wall in 1961 restored them. During the Cold War the Iron Curtain extended to the airwaves. The attempts by the Central Intelligence Agency-funded Radio Free Europe (RFE) to provide listeners behind the Curtain with uncensored news were met with efforts by communist governments to jam RFE’s signal. The Iron Curtain largely ceased to exist in 1989–90 with the communists’ abandonment of one-party rule in eastern Europe
