Two of the most common problems that many European colonists faced were 1) a lack of food due mostly to improper knowledge of farming, and 2) hostile native populations.
Once America entered World War II after the bombing of Pearl Harbor, the federal government called on businesses all over the country to increase production of war materials (ammunition, guns, airplanes, etc.). This need for the aforementioned products caused businesses to seek new employees to hire. Considering that millions of men all over the country were drafted into the war, this resulted in women being persuaded to join the work force.
Since women joined the workforce and men were employed by the military, the unemployment rate drops dramatically during World War II. Since more people were employed, more American citizens were getting paid consistently. This helped to ensure that America finally escaped the Great Depression once and for all.

Part A: [Based on Description]
The event that is shown in the painting reflects the fall of the Byzantine Empire because in this picture, it shows that the tall castle is surrounded by many soldiers. There is also many more soldiers waiting to attack when necessary on the boat. The soldiers waiting to attack have bows, swords, and/or shields, which means they are prepared to attack and block any attacks that come against them. You can see that some soldiers are using ladders to scale up the tower with defenders at the top waiting for them. The defenders are outnumbered by the amount of soldiers already climbing up the tower, soldiers on the ground, and soldiers on the boat. The defenders only have swords and daggers and possibly won't be ready for when the attackers start shooting their bows at them as they would not have the shields to block them.
Part B:
1. His constant wars and rebuilding of the Constantinople Cause financial problems. Justinian had scattered the Byzantine army across the empire. The empire suffered from several attacks of bubonic plague, which caused a severe shortage of human power, which weakened both the military and the government.
2. The location of the Byzantine Empire made it appealing to other places, meaning that the empire had to defend itself constantly as numerous people were attacking it so that they can get a piece of the territory. The armies that invaded the empire includes the Bulgars, the Muslim Caliphates, the Turkic People, the Mongols and the Ottomans. After each fight, the empire struggles more to keep up with the fights and have enough money to restock and resupply what they have.
