Answer:

Sarah Good was born to a prosperous innkeeper in 1653.However, her father's estate became entangled in litigation leaving Sarah Good in poverty. After the death of her first husband, she married William Good. The Goods lived a life of begging and poverty in Salem Village. Sarah was regarded as an unsavory person and has come to be regarded through literature as the stereotypical witch, a disreputable old hag. Good was among the first three women accused of witchcraft in 1692 and was the first to testify. She never confessed guilt, but, like Tituba,she did accuse Sarah Osburne, an act that was credited with validating the witchcraft trials and accusations. Good was hanged as a witch on Tuesday July 19, 1692,but not until after the imprisonment of her six year old child Dorcas, also accused of witchcraft, and the tragic death of her infant in prison.In February of 1692, Sarah Osborne became one of the first three victims to be accused of witchcraft in Salem Village. As the widow of Robert Prince-a Salem Villager who purchased a 150-acre farm next to his friend Captain John Putnam's, Osborne was required (by Prince's will) to carry-over their estate to their two young sons. However, by attempting to overtake possession of the property for herself and her new husband, Irish immigrant Alexander Osborne, Sarah Osborne upset social norms that consequently resulted in accusations of witchcraft by the Putnam family. She died in prison on May 10, 1692.

I would...be the goddess of pain and suffering. Although that sounds negative, I could actually clear up a lot of junk in the world when you think about it. If I eliminated the pain of those that don't deserve it, or fix a certain life problem for someone, or a whole group of people, I could fix so much in the world. (That's just one idea, lol I can send you other ones or add more detail to this one if you'd want)

Explain how geography impacts culture in your two countries in a paragraph The 2 countrys are India And Cuba
zloy xaker [14]
India's geography is sort of tropical. In some regions green trees and grass stretch as far as the eye can see. India has high mountains, vast deserts, coasts, plains, forests, and more. India even has its own islands. In Cuba the geography is far less enticing, filled with rolling plains and rugged hills it is hardly as vast and exotic as India. Cuba has a few mountains but is mainly a stale island.
