The two-party system has been present in America for decades, and it has become one of the most prominent features of our political system. However, it has also undergone significant changes.

During the Antebellum period, the two dominant parties (Republicans and Democrats) were divided over the issue of slavery. The Republican Party was created in the late 1840s and early 1850s, and they held mostly abolitionist views. On the other hand, the Democrats consisted mostly of Southerners and rural Westerners, and they were, for the most part, pro-slavery.

During the Gilded Age, the most pressing issue was that of modernization. The Democratic Party incorporated much of the platform of the Populist Party, which tried to challenge big businesses. However, the Republicans dominated the political system between 1896 and 1932.

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

From, the excerpt provided, I see the words Jewish and gas chambers. These are key words that help us figure out that it is about the Holocaust, because during this horrific event Jewish people were gathered up, put into concentration camps, and sometimes gassed to death.

I have not read Maus but I do know that it is about the Holocaust. Many images talk about Hitler, the despot the pioneered the horrific Holocaust.

Therefore, the main theme addressed in both excerpts in The Holocaust.

I hope that this helps! Have a wonderful day!

What should happen to countries that are on the losing side of the war?

Allushta [10]

Is this a random question? If so, I think that countries on the losing side of the war have already lost to the opponent for the reason they were fighting for. Is that not punishment enough? On top of that most countries that go to war could be 3rd world countries and probably can't afford to lose anything else or can afford to go to war. Respond to my answer if it were not quite what you were looking for so that I can give feedback on what you were looking for. Because your question didn't provide much to go on. :) im open to suggestions and corrections.
