Answer:
Jewish history is very old and dynamic, tracing back to over 3,000 years.
A common theme in Jewish history has been the persecution that has been suffered by the Jewish people.
The Jewish people have often hold their ancestral homeland: Israel, but they have also been expelled from these lands several times.
Jewish history is also the history of the Jewish diaspora: for centuries, there have been Jews living all over Europe and the Middle East, even in other areas.
Finally, Jewish history also includes the history of the Holocaust, the genocide in which over 5 million Jews were killed during the Second World War.
For these reasons above, Jewish history shapes Jewish culture. It makes the Jewish people cohesive and protective of their own people, because of all the suffering they have been through.
Answer: A. An organization of workers that fought for an eight-hour workday
Explanation:
The Knights of Labor started as <em>a secret organization</em>, which was founded in the 19th century by a small group of tailors from Philadelphia. The organization promoted the rights of workers and its main concern was labor and laborers' rights and position in society.
This organization grew in size throughout the years, reaching 800.000 members in 1886. It operated in the United States and Canada mainly, but it also had representatives in Australia and Great Britain. From a secret organization, it gradually turned into a laborers' union.
The Knights of Labor fought for an 8 hour workday and ending child and convinct labor.
One reason is because the republicans feared immigrants who would support the Federalists future elections.
Another reason is that the Antifederalists wanted to gain more members so they passed the act in order to welcome those entering the country.
Ghana became an independent state on March 6, 1957, when Britain relinquished its control over the Gold Coast and Ashanti, the Northern Territories Protectorate, and British Togoland. In 1957 Ghana became the first African country to gain independence.
The independence of Ghana, appeared to be a mirage, until the United Gold Coast Convention was birthed on August 4, 1947 at Saltpond; thankfully, its formation became the springboard towards our attainment of Statehood.
The independence of Ghana was not realized on a silver platter; as a matter of fact, it took years of struggle, pain, disappointment, betrayal, and even deaths before we were able to gain freedom from our colonial overlords—the British. The patriots, who sacrificed their energy, resources, and lives deserve commendation and must be celebrated.
The correct answer is A. Marshall Plan.
The treaty of Versailles was an international agreement that put an end to the WWI and established an economic recovery plan for the reconstruction of the victorious countries. This treaty put all the responsibility of the war on the central powers, who had to pay exorbitant compensations to the allies.
The Marshall plan was a United States initiative to help Western European countries to recover after WWII, mainly the UK, France, and Western Germany. Its main goal was to avoid Communism to spread over Western Europe and to make of these countries important allies of the United States against the Soviet Union.
Due to the common objectives of these two economic recovery plans and the context in which they were applied, we can see they share many similarities.
