.WHAT IS THE MAIN IDEA OF THIS PARAGRAPH?The object of your mission is three-fold. The main object is to explore the Missouri Ri

Artemon [7]

Answer::) maybe

Explanation:

President Thomas Jefferson outlined their primary mission: "…to explore the Missouri river, and

such principal streams of it, as, by its course and communication with the waters of the Pacific

Ocean, whether the Columbia, Oregon, Colorado or any other river, may offer the most direct

and practicable water communication across this continent for the purposes of commerce…."

Jefferson envisioned the nation's eventual expansion to the Pacific and wanted to strengthen

the American claim to the northwest "Oregon Country." More territory would solve the problem

of land competition and the West held the key to unlocking the mystery of the Northwest

Passage. This mythic water route to the Pacific would open up the natural resources of the

West and provide access to Asian commerce. With such an opportunity for discovery, Lewis

and Clark embarked on the journey and began fulfilling additional objectives: documenting

geography, flora, fauna, and unique cultures; establishing friendly contacts along the way; and

returning with knowledge of the previously unknown.

During their travels, the corps encountered numerous problems and hardships. The first major

hurdle was mobility. At times struggling against the current of the Missouri River, the men used

sails, poles, and oars, occasionally resorting to tow ropes when all else failed. Later on, it would

be necessary to abandon travel by water and physically carry the boats. This process, called

portaging, proved to be very time consuming and draining, at times limiting travel to only four or

five miles a day. Another major issue was discipline. Holding court-martials and dispensing

lashes as punishments when necessary, the leaders of the corps knew that they had to

establish order early on, to assure themselves of cohesion and unity through the rough times

and cold winter months that lay ahead.

Establishing sound American Indian relationships was the most difficult matter to undertake.

Throughout the expedition, members of the corps encountered at least 55 different native

cultural groups. The first real test came with the corps' confrontation with the Teton Sioux on

September 25, 1804. Attempting to sail through a portion of the Missouri River in present-day

South Dakota controlled by the Teton people, members of the expedition found themselves in a

standoff with swords, arrows, guns, and cannons threatening to settle the matter. Defusing

What we're the bad aspects of Roman society?

Natalija [7]

1. The Roman army arguably committed mass genocide multiple times. Gaul famously might've had its population cut by as much as 2/3, though most modern estimates are lower or still might've been 1,000,000 killed. Certainly over the centuries they were responsible for the deaths of potentially tens of millions.

2. They weren't "allowed" into the city of Rome, and this was for good reasons, but ultimately they proved willing to betray Rome in favor of any generals cult personality and/or promises of wealth. This resulted in not only two civil wars, but also turned the republic into a monarchy (The Roman Empire), led to the assassination of various emperors and generally an unstable government.

3. Much of ancient unwritten cultures was lost indefinitely. While Roman culture spread through conquest most conquered peoples were more or less forced to adopt ideas like Christianity, which you could argue isn't the Roman army's fault but effectively is a direct result of their victories. Most of what we know about the Celts for example was just written by Julius Ceaser who really seemed to despise most of them. Later historians and Christian scribes would paint every conquest as entirely justified and in a way "whitewash" everybody's history. Thats just a terrible shame, I wish at least some of the oral traditions were past on, but oh well.

erica [24]

Frank Fowler seem most allegiant to the discriminatory social and cultural beliefs of the period in the story of the gods and the house behind the cedars.

<u>Explanation: </u>

The House behind the Cedars is the first book published by Charles W. Chesnutt, an American novelist. It was published by Houghton, Mifflin & Corporate in 1900. A few years after the American Revolution the story is in the South American states of North and South Carolina

The story involves two African American mingled-race siblings who seek to get white so as to avoid the issues of racism. Because John Walden's complexion is rather black, he has the right to pass as white.

Frank Fowler – a black worker for the Walden household who grown up with Rena and has been in love with her. He is deeply committed to the Waldens and will do anything for Rena. While Molly Walden (Rena’s Mother) is left alone, he completely takes care of her and reads/writes her messages.
