Answer:

Between 1890-1940 women experienced many advances in terms of their political and legal rights, although discrimination and the sense of being second class citizens persisted.

Explanation:

Women from 1890-1940 experienced continuity in that they were entering the workforce more than in the past as industrialization and economic growth continued. They gained further rights which culminated in the right to vote in 1920. These rights that snowballed do to increasing activism allowed them to become more independent of men during this period. However, they still faced discrimination and inequalities as women were often paid less then men and they were habitually hired in only certain professions like teaching and nursing that are historically paid and valued less. Their citizenship continued to be restricted when compared to the citizenship of men because they lost their citizenship if they married foreign citizens, whereas this was not the case for American men who married foreign women. The practice of limiting the citizenship of women married to foreign nationals did not end until the the Nationality Act of 1940.

lakkis [162]

Answer:

It was broken due to a compromise.

Explanation:

The result was the 1867 Austro-Hungarian Compromise, which saw our “Habsburg Empire” (now the Austrian Empire) officially morph into Austria-Hungary, also known as the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

How did the British victory in the French and Indian War lead to the American Revolution?
victus00 [196]

Answer:

<h2>d. British debt after the French and Indian War led to increased taxation in the colonies.</h2>

Explanation:

The Seven Years War was fought in Europe from 1756-63.  That conflict as it extended to colonial territories in the New World was known as the French and Indian War.  The war had cost the British treasury 70 million pounds, which doubled their national debt.  The British felt they were entitled to tax the colonies for military protection against Indian tribes.

We might also note that France's loss in that war played a role in the American Revolution too.  Losing the conflict in North America to the British didn’t sit well with France. So, when the colonial Americans broke out in revolution against the British monarchy (in large measure about the taxation issue), France devoted enormous financial aid (as well as officer support) to the Americans. The cost to France for supporting America’s revolution added up to 1 billion livres  (about 4 billion in today’s dollars).

Answer:

A) Cultural relativism is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The idea that a person's  values, practices and beliefs should be understood in context of their culture instead of judging them against the criteria of another. Franz Boas was the first person to use it in anthropological research and later his students popularised it, but he didn't coined the term. This term was first used by social theorist Alain Locke in his book Culture and Ethnology

Why did North America bought in 1/2 million of
Deffense [45]

Answer:

The main reason for bringing African Slaves instead of Native slaves from South America or even North America is because, they were susceptible to diseases brought by the Settlers, Africa was already used to these diseases so they were easy to bring. Furthermore, an example of this is the tragic story of Darth Plaguis the wise *AHEM* I mean pocahauntus who was brought to England on a ship but died due to disease on that ship. If one loses 70-80% of their slaves on a ship then its useless. ALSO VERY IMPORTANT your question is supposed to say 12 million not 1/2 million
