A US district court ruled earlier this week that North Carolina’s partisan gerrymandered congressional districts were unconstitutional, raising the very real possibility that new maps might need to be drawn mere weeks before the 2018 House elections.
New districts would likely be a boon for Democrats: Though North Carolina is evenly or nearly evenly divided between Democrats and Republicans, Republicans currently hold 10 of the state’s 13 House seats. In their quest for a House majority, even one or two newly competitive seats in North Carolina would be a major boost to Democrats’ chances of taking over at least one chamber of Congress.
But first, state officials and the courts need to figure out if drawing new districts is even possible in such a short time and whether the congressional elections might need to be delayed in order to accommodate the court-ordered redistricting. Looming over all of it is the US Supreme Court, which could put a stay on the lower court’s decision and bring the whole mad dash to an end very quickly.
North Carolina Republican leaders accused the federal court’s decision of introducing “unmitigated chaos” to the state’s 2018 elections — and while they are surely peeved at the thought of losing congressional seats, they aren’t wrong in thinking the court has upended the 2018 landscape in North Carolina and nationwide.

Answer:
True
Explanation:
It is TRUE that the cause of the Indian wars in the Pacific Northwest was mainly caused by broken treaties, which led to many deaths and Indians being forced into small reservations.
This is evident in the fact that the American government in their bid to use the land occupied by the native Americans in the Pacific Northwest of the United States or even any other area in the region, ask the native Americans to move to a new reservation with a promise of no trespassing on their lands or reservation.
However, many times, the US government tends to break this treaty, and war always eventually occurred as a result.
Answer:
Holocaust.
Explanation:
The<u> Holocaust was the greatest genocide in the history of the world which led to the mass murder of the European Jews in Germany</u>. This <u>mass killing executed under the order of the Nazi leader Adolf Hitler</u> became and will remain one of the most heinous crimes ever carried upon a specific race and ethnicity.
The Kristallnacht or the Crystal Night or Night of the Broken Glass and the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising are also all forms of discriminatory acts against the Jews. The term <u>"Holocaust" is coined and used as a reference to the mass murder and discriminatory act against the European Jewish </u>people after the end of the war. This genocidal act was carried out in numerous concentration camps and gas chambers, where they are gassed if they are "not up to the mark" or are unhealthy while the good ones are made to work in the camps until they fall sick and die.
