-The administration took time to look at banks and reopen the solvent ones.

Banks were evaluated during the Bank Holiday with the goal of improving faith in the banks by reopening banks that were stable enough to get customers to reinvest.

Franklin Roosevelt concluded the banks needed to be evaluated and needed customers to return their money. Most Americans had lost faith in the banks and were nervous to redeposit their money. During the Bank Holiday, Roosevelt passed new banking legislation protecting the money of customers. When the holiday was over, banks that were stable enough to do so were reopened. Citizens lined up to reinvest their money which helped to get the economy moving again.

After World War One, were countries entirely dependant on the continued involvement of the United States in terms of World affai

exis [7]

That could definitely be argued! The WWI was fought in Europe, so many European countries were left in pieces at its end. So they were definitely in need of outside support. One may also look at it from another point of view. The US refused to join the League of Nations, which shows that the country was not necessarily as involved in world affairs as it could have been.

why did it upset most southern states and their people when California asked to be annexed as a free state in 1950?

igor_vitrenko [27]

California was to enter the Union as two states. The northern one would be a "free" state called California and the southern one would be a territory which was to immediately become a “slave” state to be called Colorado. Californians were outraged that the federal government could overrule the decision of a state.
