IT was the center of learning and knowledge, with Greek texts being discovered and imported by Arab scholars.  Further, people like the Medici, who sponsored many artists during the Renaissance, were very wealthy, and able to pay people for works of art that they wanted commissioned.

Briefly explain one reason for a difference between the federal government's response to anxieties about communism within the Un
Alla [95]
The First and Second Red Scares were similar in many respects since they were both reactions to the rise of the Soviet Union in the wake of a world war and both involved government-sanctioned witch hunts for communists within the United States. However, one key difference in the federal government's response to these Scares is that, in general, it targeted different classes of people during each Scare in its attempts to counteract communism.

Anticommunist activities during the First Red Scare were more economic in nature, targeting organized labor organizations which were suspected of communist leanings. This makes sense because the First Red Scare occurred after a revolution in Russia toppled the tsar and established a new communist government. The federal government's aim in arresting suspected communists, such as during the Palmer Raids, was to prevent a similar revolution occurring in the United States.

During the Second Red Scare, the emphasis was less on preventing a mass uprising by the poor and more on counteracting Soviet espionage in the US government and influential industries, such as Hollywood. The House Un-American Activities Committee and Senator Joseph McCarthy's hearings frequently targeted people in the movie industry and government officials. This sort of anticommunist activity also makes sense for its time period since by then, the Russian Revolution was long in the past and the current political issue of the day was the Cold War, the ideological struggle between the USSR and the US after both became superpowers in the wake of WWII. There was more fear of a nuclear war than of a communist revolution.

During the Second Red Scare in the 1950s, the United States saw communism as more of an external threat and engaged in proxy wars around the world to contain its spread, while the United States of the 1920s was more isolationist.

As possible sites for a canal,what do Mexico,costa rica,Panama,and Colombia have in common?
Tema [17]

The countries of Mexico, Costa Rica, Panama, and Colombia, are all countries that have excellent locations for building canals that would contribute to much easier sea travel and trade, and cutting of on distance significantly. This is because all four countries are countries that have access on two large water bodies, on the eastern side that is the Caribbean Sea, and through it a direct connection with the Atlantic Ocean, and on the western side it is the Pacific Ocean. Still, so far, only one of them have been chosen for a canal, and that is Panama, and this was mainly due to the lowland relief and because the country has the smallest land mass between the two water bodies.
