Why is WWI considered the war to end all wars? What does this mean?

History

At the time, World War I was the most destructive war in human history. People of the time began referring to it as "the war to end all wars" partially to encompass the totality of destruction but also a way to ward off any future war. Modern readers know that this was not successful and the world had to endure another massively destructive world war twenty years later.

Please help me with this homework please I need help
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

I have time to help with a few:

1. One was the small pocks disease, another was the flu, and one of the worst, measles.

2. Slaves required almost no money to keep alive and working, thus was more or less free labor. Free labor meant prophets doubled compared to when white men who had to be paid did the same jobs.

3. Essentially, colonists (or Americans, depending on the time frame) Had many years to develop cures to many diseases, yet because the native Americans had only a few years and relatively no technology, diseases were able to destroy them.

4. N/A

5. Cramped space, hundreds of slaves and disease meant they were more or less trapped with a lion, as disease killed many that were on the middle journey.

6. One was obviously hunger. Disease, lack of clothes, the beatings from their masters, and separation of family as well as discrimination were all pretty big factors to slave life.

7. N/A (although, if I had to guess, it's because they had a common factor; both were abused and disliked the white man)

8. Well, all of the factors from number 6 can be applied here. Essentially, slaves were like property; they do whatever you want them to do and you treat them as you like.

9. They were taken from their homes, stripped of their dignity and their rights/freedom. Religion was the one thing that the whites couldn't really take from them, and therefore was guarded with their lives.

10. Disease sometimes meant that some slaves didn't make it to America, and those that did didn't make it long due to disease (in combination with the factors of number 6). Disease made the transfer hard, as well as the life of the slave hard.

Sorry I couldn't fill every spot in, but I hope this can help in some way! :)

can you havs an effective social contract if you have significant economic and social inequality? (answer in 4 sentences)​
jekas [21]

Answer:

Social contract is the covenant between an individual and the state. Existence of the states is defensible when the individuals of the society obliquely approve to confine to the standards of the society in return for the peaceable survival and living in the society.

Explanation:

Thomas Hobbes was the one who proposed this social contract theory during Enlightment era. Societies agree to obey in all matters in return for an assurance of harmony and safety in the society. If inequality prevails in the society, then there will not be amity, peace and harmony.  

Many protests would take place which makes the people go against the laws of the government.
