FILL IN THE BLANK... during the war the confederates began to coat the sides of some of their ships with ___

History

The right answer is iron.

Let me explain: During the Civil War, the Confederacy wanted to acquire modern armored ships, therefore, gaining advantage over their adversaries. Somewhere around 1861, the Confederate Congress purchased ships called 'ironclads' from overseas, and a few moths later, they started working on constructing and converting their wooden ships to ironclads, by coating the sides of their ships with iron.

The goal behind this new defense strategy was to make it more difficult for heavy artillery to pierce the ships, thus gaining a new naval advantage over the enemy.

I hope this answer helps! Have a great week :)

How did the palmer raids ignore americans' civil right and liberties??​
lbvjy [14]

Answer: A good example is this...

The Palmer Raids were a series of raids conducted in November 1919 and January 1920 during the First Red Scare by the United States Department of Justice under the administration of President Woodrow Wilson to capture and arrest suspected radical leftists, mostly Italian and Eastern European immigrants and especially anarchists and communists, and deport them from the United States. The raids particularly targeted Italian immigrants and Eastern European Jewish immigrants with suspected radical leftist ties, with particular focus on Italian anarchists and immigrant leftist labor activists. The raids and arrests occurred under the leadership of Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer, with 3,000 arrested. Though 556 foreign citizens were deported, including a number of prominent leftist leaders, Palmer's efforts were largely frustrated by officials at the U.S. Department of Labor, which had authority for deportations and objected to Palmer's methods.

(IF YOU DO NOT KNOW THE ANSWER, PLEASE DON'T RESPOND, DO NOT WASTE MY POINTS PLEASE)
scoray [572]

Answer:

This answer is based on opinion, so I wrote as if I agree that there should be muckrakers.

I believe muckrakers are still needed today. Historically, muckrakers created public awareness of corruption, social injustices and abuses of power.  The in depth encounter would bring national awareness to these issues, and would often bring change.  Although modern work environments follow stricter guidelines, no system is perfect, and injustices still occur.  I believe the presence of Muckrakers in would affect todays society similarly to they way they historically affected society, by leading to public outrage at hostile work experiences, and thus resulting in fairer work environments.
