From 1955 until 1956, African American citizens in Montgomery, Alabama, refused to ride on city buses. African Americans chose n

ot to ride the buses as a way to protest segregation and the unequal treatment of minorities. They hoped that by boycotting the buses, politicians and government officials would change public policies concerning African Americans. Eventually, the Supreme Court decided that the laws in Alabama that forced African Americans to give up their seats to white passengers were unconstitutional.

Answer the following questions about internal and external factors that led to change in various states after 1900.
ladessa [460]

a) Identify factors that led to the Russian Revolution (1917).

The October Revolution in Russia in 1917 signified the collapse of Tsarist Russia and the establishment of a regime by the Bolsheviks and the leader of the Communist Party, Lenin. The main reason, among others, was the dissatisfaction of peasants and workers due to large class differences. The dissatisfaction of workers and peasants was preceded by several wars that Russia led and lost all, but the war with Turkey. Peasants barely survived in unreformed economic agricultural conditions. Workers fought for bigger rights in factories, for shortening working hours, but primacy was in waging wars, rather than dealing with economic issues and dissatisfaction of workers and peasants. Also, Emperor Nicholas spent more time dealing with his own family than on state issues. All this led to the general dissatisfaction of the people and the October Revolution.

b) Identify factors that led to the Mexican Revolution (1910–17).

Some of the factors that led to the Mexican Revolution were the dictatorship-like way of ruling that Porfirio Diaz exhibited for over 30 years, the exploitation and poor treatment of laborers, and the large disparity between rich and poor. While there is no definite cause for the Mexican Revolution, there were many factors that led to the decision to rebel against the government.

c) Explain how land-based and maritime empires gave way to new states in the 20th century.

The land-based and maritime empires gave way to new states in the 20th century when the older, land-based empires such as the Ottoman empire, the Russian empire, and the Qing empire collapsed due to a combination of internal and external factors.

Why did George Washington didn't want to be president at first?
melamori03 [73]
George Washington did not want to accept the presidency that the people wanted to give him for fear of becoming a tyrant himself, just like King George II of England, from whom they just declared themselves independent from. When he became president, he made an example by only taking 2 terms and then refusing to continue being president. It wasn't until much later that a law was introduced to prevent any single president from serving more than 2 terms.
