Did the Cherokees repeated appeals to the United States government slow down the theft of their land
Bad White [126]

The Cherokees repeated appeals to the United States government didn't really slow down the theft of their land. The U.S. government didn't repress the theft of Native American land by individuals. It even encouraged it military and economically and created laws to strip them away of their land, such as the Dawes Act.

Evaluate the extent to which states in the Middle East and East Asia utilized similar methods to develop and expand from 1450 to
Troyanec [42]

Rulers of land-based empires in the Middle East and East Asia used bureaucratic elites and military professions to create centralized control over populations and resources.

<h3>Describe the imperial expansion from 1450 to 1750.</h3>

Increased use of gunpowder, cannons and armed trade led to the establishment of vast empires in Europe and Asia. Most of the subjugated tribes were unorganized or weak. The Manchu in Central East Asia, the Mughal in South and Central Asia, the Ottoman in Southern Europe, and the Middle East, and North Africa were some of these land-based empires.

Politics, religion, and the armed forces were all under the control of the same people. They also had control over trade, which allowed the monarchs to build more powerful armies and cultural landmarks. Religion, art, and architecture were all used by rulers to justify their dominion. To raise money for state power and imperial expansion, they used new tax collection methods and mechanisms for collecting tribute.

Discuss the benefits and problems of capitalism and s
Zigmanuir [339]

Capitalism is an economic system in which investments in an ownership of the means of production, distribution, and exchange of wealth is made and maintained chiefly by private  individuals or corporations specially as contrasted to cooperatively state-owned means of wealth. Socialism is a theory or system of social organization that advocates the vesting of the ownership and control of the means of production and distribution, of capital, land, etc., in the community as a whole.

<h2>Why do people say that capitalism works better than socialism?</h2>

Capitalism and socialism have both been put to the test. Socialism never works; capitalism occasionally does. The outcomes are self-evident.

  • China. After the cultural revolution, the communist party seized power in China. They didn't have much financial success with anything. In its place, starvation claimed the lives of millions. Capitalist policies were put into place when Moa Zedong left office, and economic development suddenly skyrocketed.
  • US versus USSR The huge ideological conflict between capitalism and socialism was eventually the cause of the cold war. The sides began on land that was largely level. There is no doubt who won. The USA is currently the world's most powerful country by a wide margin. There is no longer a Soviet Union.
  • Almost all affluent countries, including the UK, Germany, Australia, Japan, Canada, and even the Nordic countries, have capitalist systems. All have different amounts of social expenditure, but this is only sustained by the underlying capitalism.
  • Cuba. Cubans are all equal, yet they are all equally impoverished. Nearly everyone in Cuba has it better than even those who are regarded as impoverished in prosperous countries like the USA.
  • Venezuela. elected a communist administration. They are currently in financial ruin. It would be difficult to locate a socialist administration that has made any effort to better the lives of its citizens. Although I would think there are none at all, perhaps I haven't looked closely enough.

In conclusion, a basic misunderstanding of human nature is the basis of socialism. When everyone actually ends up doing is trying to piggyback off of everyone else's hard work, it makes the false assumption that everyone is willing to labor selflessly for the benefit of the group. Although it is not a flawless system, capitalism at least provides a reward for effort. And when it comes down to it, hard effort is what improves our lives.

<h2>What are the pros and cons of socialism and capitalism?</h2>

Capitalism:

Pros ⇒ It is a method of voluntary trade. It is the best at allocating scarce resources. It has given people the highest quality of life in human history. Property rights, arbitrary assessments, and free will are all protected. It best manages self-interest. It rewards people who make the world a better place by making them rich. Static economic classes are eliminated by capitalism's dynamic character. Of course, there is more.

Cons ⇒ There isn't a spokesperson for free market capitalism. Market manipulation, monopolies, oligopolies, cronyism, fascism, inflation, central banking, fractional reserve banking, and any other financial news-related scheme are all confused with it.

Socialism:

Pro ⇒ Fair distribution of total generated wealth

Cons ⇒ It is oppressive. The loss of private property in the means of production prevents accurate economic calculations. Rare resources are squandered since there aren't genuine prices (actual prices reflect consumer values) (mountains of Soviet concrete). It does not satisfy the insatiable human drive for more (demand). denies possessing oneself. It establishes two static classes, one for workers and the other for politicians. Marx demanded that "undesirables" be removed from society (Irish, Scottish and non-whites).

How did new ideas of liberty contribute to tensions between the social classes in the american colonies?
Serggg [28]
The ideas leveled up not only on their rights and privileges as a citizen. The ideology was understood as a national concern. Through a basic understanding of their own rights, the realization of the issue was associated as a concern of all as a nation that strives to have a decent living. They saw the connection between social classes concern is related. Thus, the ideas of liberty awakened nationalism among the American colonies.
