1. The main factors were because of fuels. Because of an energy crisis up until 2008, the fuel prices skyrocketed which meant that sustainable cars became a priority for buyers. The big three american manufacturers didn't make such vehicles as  the US was always a great market for SUVs and other powerful and large cars and sales started to drop and they started losing huge amounts of money because people started buying vehicles that had better fuel consumption or didn't buy at all.

2. At first the government supported the unions who managed to win some and lose some in a series of compromises with company owners. In the end, the government had to give a huge amount of money to the big 3 in order to bail them out since they were almost filing for bankruptcy.

3. The advice would be to start supporting sustainable green cars that are electric powered or biofuel powered and not just make huge SUVs powered by oil. The crisis never would've happened if it had been that way from the beginning.

Select the geographic features that encourage movement.
makvit [3.9K]

<em>The best answers for me, the best geographic features that encourage movement would be Plains and Mountains. </em>

<em>Plains is a type of geographical form, wherein you could see a land flat area. Plains are great location for fields, trees, crops and domesticated animals. Since the area doesn't have much obstacles rather than trees and animals and maybe some rocks, people can easily manipulate movement in any form to this area.  </em>

<em>Meanwhile mountains can be a good choice for movements as well. Mountains are type of geographical form, which is often huge and located above the grounds. The elevation of it's form are mostly in meters and feet high. Mountains are normally has limited scope and can support wildlife and forest lives. Movement can be facilitated on mountains. But it is much slower compared to plains, since there are more hindrance on it (like trees, huge rocks and animals). </em>

What are arguments that support the annexation of Hawaii?
Tju [1.3M]

America's annexation of Hawaii in 1898 extended U.S. territory into the Pacific and highlighted resulted from economic integration and the rise of the United States as a Pacific power. For most of the 1800s, leaders in Washington were concerned that Hawaii might become part of a European nation's empire. During the 1830s, Britain and France forced Hawaii to accept treaties giving them economic privileges. In 1842, Secretary of State Daniel Webster sent a letter to Hawaiian agents in Washington affirming U.S. interests in Hawaii and opposing annexation by any other nation. He also proposed to Great Britain and France that no nation should seek special privileges or engage in further colonization of the islands. In 1849, the United States and Hawaii concluded a treaty of friendship that served as the basis of official relations between the parties.

A key provisioning spot for American whaling ships, fertile ground for American protestant missionaries, and a new source of sugar cane production, Hawaii's economy became increasingly integrated with the United States. An 1875 trade reciprocity treaty further linked the two countries and U.S. sugar plantation owners from the United States came to dominate the economy and politics of the islands. When Queen Liliuokalani moved to establish a stronger monarchy, Americans under the leadership of Samuel Dole deposed her in 1893. The planters' belief that a coup and annexation by the United States would remove the threat of a devastating tariff on their sugar also spurred them to action. The administration of President Benjamin Harrison encouraged the takeover, and dispatched sailors from the USS Boston to the islands to surround the royal palace. The U.S. minister to Hawaii, Joh

Dole sent a delegation to Washington in 1894 seeking annexation, but the new President, Grover Cleveland, opposed annexation and tried to restore the Queen. Dole declared Hawaii an independent republic. Spurred by the nationalism aroused by the Spanish-American War, the United States annexed Hawaii in 1898 at the urging of President William McKinley. Hawaii was made a territory in 1900, and Dole became its first governor. Racial attitudes and party politics in the United States deferred statehood until a bipartisan compromise linked Hawaii's status to Alaska, and both became states in 1959.

n L. Stevens, worked closely with the new government.

What were two DIFFERENT factors that contributed to the starting of the Great Depression in America? Please explain how they led
pshichka [43]

Answer:Disproportionate wealth distribution, overproduction.

Explanation:

The combination of unequal wealth distribution. This situation intensified during the 1920s. Money is disproportionately distributed between the rich and the middle class, between industry and agriculture, and finally between the united states and Europe. This imbalance has negatively affected the economy. Another reason that led to the economic breakdown is overproduction. It produced much more than citizens could spend and afford because their purchasing power was not high. In these circumstances, the US economy collapsed in 1929, and the crisis would be felt until the outbreak of World War I.
