They wanted to build the erie canal so that there would be an easier way of transportation of goods from the Ohio valley and other places to the West of them
For Nazi Germany to invade the Soviet Union, they required 2 important factors:
1. Good Climate
2. Swift movements in the country as soon as possible.
The Nazis easily took the eastern parts of Soviet Union but quickly experienced their first problem.
Germany was a highly developed country with a modern road network and infrastructure, however, when the German forces entered Soviet Union, they found a much poorer country, with a poor road network and out dated infrastructure.
This greatly slowed down the mobility of the advancing forces. German cars and even tanks were slowed down due to muddy roads and farmland.
Before the Nazis could reach Moscow, the Russian winter came with full force and the temperatures quickly dropped below zero.
Gasoline in military jeeps froze, horses died and many Nazi soldiers suffered frostbite and other diseases.
Both climate and infrastructure, were in Soviet union's favor and helped to defeat the Nazis
Answer:
The correct answer is B. The Great Compromise created two houses on Congress, one representing states equally and the other representing states based on population.
Explanation:
The Great Compromise of 1787 was originated in the creation of the American legislative bodies. It merged the Virginia Plan, that favored population-based representation, and the New Jersey Plan, which listed each state as an equal.
It established a bicameral system: one chamber in favor of the Virginia Plan, based on the population of the States, and the other in accordance with the New Jersey Plan, by which all States voted in equality.
This was an important issue in the new United States. The small States, with a small population, wanted their voices to be heard in the Congress, as well as those of large states with a large population, such as Virginia or New York. With its plan, Virginia wanted to have greater representation because a large percentage of the American population was in that state. In this way they would have control over what happened in the United States.
Answer:
The origins of the National Woman's Party (NWP) date from 1912, when Alice Paul and Lucy Burns, young Americans schooled in the militant tactics of the British suffrage movement, were appointed to the National American Woman Suffrage Association's (NAWSA) Congressional Committee. They injected a renewed militancy into the American campaign and shifted attention away from state voting rights toward a federal suffrage amendment.At odds with NAWSA over tactics and goals, Paul and Burns founded the Congressional Union for Woman Suffrage (CU) in April 1913, but remained on NAWSA's Congressional Committee until December that year. Two months later, NAWSA severed all ties with the CU.
The CU continued its aggressive suffrage campaign. Its members held street meetings, distributed pamphlets, petitioned and lobbied legislators, and organized parades, pageants, and speaking tours. In June 1916 the CU formed the NWP, briefly known as the Woman's Party of Western Voters. The CU continued in states where women did not have the vote; the NWP existed in western states that had passed women's suffrage. In March 1917 the two groups reunited into a single organization–the NWP.
In January 1917 the CU and NWP began to picket the White House. The government's initial tolerance gave way after the United States entered World War I. Beginning in June 1917, suffrage protestors were arrested, imprisoned, and often force-fed when they went on hunger strikes to protest being denied political prisoner status.
The NWP's militant tactics and steadfast lobbying, coupled with public support for imprisoned suffragists, forced President Woodrow Wilson to endorse a federal woman suffrage amendment in 1918. Congress passed the measure in 1919, and the NWP began campaigning for state ratification. Shortly after Tennessee became the 36th state to ratify women's suffrage, the 19th Amendment was signed into law on August 26, 1920.
Once suffrage was achieved, the NWP focused on passing an Equal Rights Amendment. The party remained a leading advocate of women's political, social, and economic equality throughout the 20th century.
Answer:
Speaker 2
Explanation:
One of the main ideas of the Enlightenment is that of the Social Contract, developed by Jean-Jacques Rousseau.
According to this idea, people, by their own will, give up some of their freedoms to the state, in exchange for protection and the administration of justice. By the same logic, if the rulers govern in ways that go against the wishes of the people, then they have the right to depose their rulers because they would be violating the social contract.
For this reason, speaker 2 would be the one who mostly agrees with enlightenment ideas, because speaker 2 is expressing the idea of the social contract, and the right of the people from the colonies to depose their ruler: King George III.
