History

-John Wycliffe directly challenged the Church and clergy, calling out the luxury and privilege they indulged in and categorizing them as sinners. According to him, it only made sense that <u>the entire clergy should give up all their property and live in poverty to right their wrongs</u>. The Council of Constance made a declaration on May 4th of 1415 that marked Wycliffe as a heretic and banned his writings.

-Jan Hus also attacked religious institutions for their moral failings. His efforts were centered around denouncing the Church's ethical abuse, and he set the seeds for the Reformation movement to come. After his condemnation and death, his following had become so large that most of the Czech population of the Kingdom of Bohemia represented <u>a powerful military force, battling and winning several crusades and revolts</u>.

-Joan of Arc went from a French peasant to leading armies in some of the biggest battles against England in the Hundred Years War. From an early age, she claimed to have visions of angels and saints who guided her, supporting her beliefs against torture that any exceptional person no matter what level of society they come from, can receive a divine calling. She shared the same fate as the previous 2 figures, as she was also tried for heresy and ended up being burnt at the stake.

Answer and Explanation:

<u>The answer is All of the Above.</u>

--

In early 1915, Germany introduced a policy of unrestricted submarine warfare in the Atlantic. This meant U-Boats were hunting and sinking merchant shipping without warning. The RMS Lusitania left New York on 1st May, 1915, bound for Liverpool. On 7th May it was spotted off the coast of Ireland by U-20 and torpedoed. Of 1,962 passengers, 1,198 lost their lives. Among the dead were 128 Americans, causing widespread outrage in the US.

--

In January 1917, the German diplomatic representative in Mexico received a secret telegram penned by German Foreign Secretary Arthur Zimmermann. It proposed a secret alliance between Germany and Mexico, should the United States enter the war. If the Central Powers were to win, Mexico would be free to annex territory in New Mexico, Texas and Arizona. Unfortunately for Germany, the telegram was intercepted by the British and decrypted by Room 40. The British passed the document to Washington and it appeared on the front page of American newspapers on 1st March.

This combination of factors turned public opinion around. On 6 April, the United States declared war on Germany and began to mobilize. The first American troops arrived in Europe in June.

--

Germany resumed unrestricted submarine warfare in 1917. Knowing they risked provoking the United States into joining the war, Germany gambled on defeating the British before the US had a chance to mobilize. During February and March, several US cargo vessels were sunk without warning, resulting in the United States severing diplomatic ties with Berlin.

How are isolationism and nativism related in the 1920s what actions did americans take that revealed their distrust of others?
Scilla [17]

Isolationists were people who pulled away from involvement in foreign affairs. This mainly happened after WWI. U.S.A did not want to become involved with the League of Nations.The League of Nations was a group of countries that tried to create world peace. The Americans did not want to be entangled into another war with the Germans. 
 ativism is a term that is used to mean the opposition of immigration. Nativism favored the primary race of the country (White). This was a post WWI trend. Millions of Europeans were seeking to immigrate in other parts of the world and many of them tried to come to the United States. Many Americans mainly did not like the Germans because they started the war. Many Americans were nativists and had prejudices 
 Against the German people.   
The Emergency Quota Act was a movement that limited the number of immigrants each year that emigrated to the U.S. All of these topics affected politics in the 1920’s, especially the Quota System. This favored all western Europeans and created a drop in immigrations for the U.S. The Americans did not play any German music. Also, they wouldn’t allow the Americans to speak German.
