Boss Tweed

Boss Tweed was the leader of the Tammany Hall political machine in New York City. He worked with the Democratic Party and was arrested for corruption in 1873.

In the image, Boss Tweed, or William Magear Tweed, is cleaning up the street of criminals but he is himself a criminal. It shows the hypocrisy of the political machine and him that he was stealing money from corrupt schemes in New York but was focused as a political leader on getting pickpockets and thieves off of the streets. Tweed was arrested for price gouging, or over charging for city services, and theft of tax dollars which he was able to do by running the political system and placing friends and allies in city jobs.

In which region of Texas do hurricanes occur? a. the high plains b. mountain region c. subtropical region d. continental steppe
Furkat [3]

Answer:

Subtropical region

Explanation:

High plains don't have the climate for the hurricanes. And neither do mountains. Their altitude is so high, it's almost impossible to breathe at the summit depending on the height. The only thing you should expect is an avalanche. Continental steppes are too dry to be plains and not dry enough to be deserts. The only other option is the subtropical region because take for example, hurricane Katrina. Flordia's the most likely state to be ravaged by a hurricane because it's in the subtropics area.

MAXImum [283]

The Taiping Rebellion was a civil war that occurred in China between the ruling Qing dynasty and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, which was a state located in Tianjin who opposed the ruling dynasty. This conflict lasted around 14 years. From 1850 to 1864 CE.

The major motivation for the revolution was the conversion of Chinese society, including reforms like the introduction of Christianism and changes in government policy. The leader of the revolution named Hong Xiuquan was a converted Christian and he also claimed he was the brother of Jesus Christ. The conflict is considered as the bloodiest in history, with a total death toll ranging from 70 million to 100 million.

The outcome of the revolution was the defeat of the Heavenly Kingdom in 1864 and subsequent vanquishing of God worshippers. by the Qing Dynasty. However, it also led to a loss of power by the central government in regards to the provinces and the rising of provincial armies.
