The terrorism is an act of violence which basis is a political issue, and it is causing a political response.

The genocide is a systematic killing of people based on their ethnicity, race, or religion.

Example for terrorism is the attack on the twin towers in New York, when both of them were knocked down because of political reasons by Muslim extremists.

Example of genocide is the mass killing of Armenians by the Turks because of their religion and ethnic background.

There can be occasionally confusion about what is terrorism and what genocide, as lot of time both of them can take place in the same time by the same people. Also, some people neglect the definitions on what is what, so often consider a purely terrorist attack as a genocide, especially if a certain group of people was targeted, or a genocide would be considered as a terrorist attack despite being no political reason for the act.

Define the 26th amendment <br><br><br> WeLp ;n;
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

Twenty-sixth Amendment, amendment (1971) to the Constitution of the United States that extended voting rights (suffrage) to citizens aged 18 years or older. Traditionally, the voting age in most states was 21, though in the 1950s Pres. Dwight D. Eisenhower signaled his support for lowering it. Attempts to establish a national standardized voting age, however, were met with opposition from the states. In 1970 Pres. Richard M. Nixon signed an extension of the Voting Rights Act (1965), which lowered the age of eligibility to vote in all federal and state elections to 18. (Nixon himself was skeptical of the constitutionality of this provision.) Two states (Oregon and Texas) filed suit, claiming that the law violated the reserve powers of the states to set their own voting-age requirements, and in Oregon v. Mitchell (1970) the U.S. Supreme Court upheld this claim.

In response to this setback, and in particular spurred by student activism during the Vietnam War and the fact that 18-year-olds could be drafted to fight in the war but could not vote in federal elections in most states, an amendment was introduced in the U.S. Congress. It won congressional backing on March 23, 1971, and was ratified by the states on July 1, 1971—marking the shortest interval between Congressional approval and ratification of an amendment in U.S. history. The administrator of general services officially certified ratification of the Twenty-sixth Amendment on July 5.
