Born in 1863, Henry Ford was the first surviving son of William and Mary Ford, who owned a prosperous farm in Dearborn, Michigan. At 16, he left home for the nearby city of Detroit, where he found apprentice work as a machinist. He returned to Dearborn and work on the family farm after three years, but continued to operate and service steam engines and work occasional stints in Detroit factories. In 1888, he married Clara Bryant, who had grown up on a nearby farm.In the first several years of their marriage, Ford supported himself and his new wife by running a sawmill. In 1891, he returned with Clara to Detroit, where he was hired as an engineer for the Edison Illuminating Company. Rising quickly through the ranks, he was promoted to chief engineer two years later. Around the same time, Clara gave birth to the couple’s only son, Edsel Bryant Ford. On call 24 hours a day for his job at Edison, Ford spent his irregular hours on his efforts to build a gasoline-powered horseless carriage, or automobile. In 1896, he completed what he called the “Quadricycle,” which consisted of a light metal frame fitted with four bicycle wheels and powered by a two-cylinder, four-horsepower gasoline engine.
Answer:
The correct answer is C. The influence of the Enlightenment on Napoleon is most clearly seen in his code which made all men equal under the laws.
Explanation:
The Napoleonic Code is a large-scale codification of civil law that gave a powerful impetus to the subsequent codification process in many countries of the world. It was developed and adopted at the beginning of the 19th century on the initiative of the first consul of the French Republic, Napoleon Bonaparte, and operates with changes and additions up to the present day.
The Code rejected the existing class differences and privileges and served as one of the foundations for the formation of a new bourgeois society, fixing in its norms the secularization of family relations, equality of participants in civil turnover, inviolability of private property, freedom to conclude civil law contracts and, at the same time, patriarchal views on marriage and family.
Your answer would be D). Western Europe. During the 1600s and 1700s, people that were from Western Europe, mostly people from Great Britain, did not like the way the government worked, and they wanted to have more freedom. Because of that, they became colonists. Colonists are people that settle into a new land and form a colony, and that's what they did. They immigrated from Western Europe to the United States to have more freedom, because the government in Great Britain was very strict at that time. Also, there were a lot of pilgrims that wanted to freely practice their religion, but places in Western Europe didn't allow that, so they also immigrated to the United States so they could practice their religion without worrying about things stopping them. They immigrated to the United States, formed their own colony, and became independent from Great Britain.
Tropical, because their aren't any large dangerous animals, only snakes that could be avoided. They can fish or eat local produce, that the climate provides, so they probably wont starve. They wont freeze from hypothermia as long as they make fire by night, and they wont over heat like they would in the dessert, because they have trees to shade them and it is cooler by the water. Unlike in the dessert, or tundra the chance of finding clean water is greater, so they probably wont dehydrate. Also most tropical islands have coconuts they can also drink.
The correct answer is: False
