History

Arisa [49]4 years ago

Answer:

The "Gilded Age" term came into use in the 1920s and 1930s and was derived from writer Mark Twain's and Charles Dudley Warner's 1873 novel The Gilded Age: A Tale of Today, which satirized an era of serious social problems masked by a thin gold gilding.

Explanation:

Mark Twain called the late 19th century the "Gilded Age." By this, he meant that the period was glittering on the surface but corrupt underneath.

How did European contact impact indigenous peoples? (Select all that apply.) European goods were traded for native lands. Native
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

The best choices from the options, to be able to answer the question: How did European contact impact indigenous peoples, would be:

B: Native tribes became ill from diseases that were not present until the arrival of Europeans. This is correct as it was not until Europeans arrived in America that such diseases as smallpox, or chickenpox, made an appearance, decimating thousands of Native Americans all over the Americas. It is now known that the arrival of diseases brought by the European settlers was one of the biggest impacts that Europe had on America.

C: Early European settlers attempted to convert Native tribes to their religion. This is especially true for all those tribes who came into contact with the Spanish conquistadores. One of the reasons why the discovery of new lands was supported originally by the Spanish crown, was the desire for the extension of the Gospels. When Columbus found these new lands, and the "savages" in them, a whole movement of Christians, particularly Catholic orders, began to move into the Americas in order to bring the Gospel. Later, with the arrival of the English in America, although at first evangelization was not the main purpose, but rather to find a new place away from religious persecution, it later did become an issue, with Puritans attempting to "civilize" the Indians through religious knowledge. After them, many of the new protestant movements made it their goal to evangelize the savage Native people of the colonies.

None of the other choices is correct, as Europeans traded with Indians for goods, not lands, and since lands were sacred to Indian tribes, they would have never traded them. Also, crops like bananas, coffee, sugar cane and wheat, were brought by the Europeans into the Americas, not taken from the Americas by the Europeans.

In your own words, explain Paul's analogy to slavery. Use complete sentences.
Arisa [49]

Answer: In Paul's sense, slavery is an ineluctable part of human existence in which we have a choice of being a slave to sin or a slave to God. Becoming a slave means giving up all claims to status and relates to Christ's humble‐mindedness in Philippians. The slave is also a model of faithfulness, comparable with God's faithfulness to Israel and Christ's faithfulness to the mission given him by his Father. Being a slave (in Paul's sense) is at the heart of the Christian life, exemplifying the ‘obedience of faith’, for it is through this faithfulness that we become righteous.

What evidence shows that the uprisings at Treblinka and Sobibor were not a complete failure?
Rama09 [41]

Answers:

Check Explanation

Explanation:

Firstly let us discuss the Treblinka uprising, the Treblinka uprising started as a result of the Nazi's wish to kill the jew by it Nazi's SS, In November 1941, they established a forced labour camb for the Jews called Treblinka 1 and in July 1942, they established Treblinka 2 where they established two Operation Reinhard killing centers, Belzec and Sobibor, these two centers contains a built Chamber, once the Jews were made to run nakedly into this Chambers, the chamber doors were sealed, an engine installed outside the building pumped carbon monoxide into the gas chambers, killing those inside.

The Germans killed an estimated 925,000 Jews at the Treblinka killing center, as well as an unknown number of Poles, Roma, and Soviet POWs.

Treblinka uprising started in Early 1943, when some Jewish inmates organize a resistance group, although they recorded some success through the seized weapon from the camp armory but were discovered before they could take over the camp. Hundreds of prisoners stormed the main gate in an attempt to escape but Many were killed by machine-gun fire.

Sobibor was also a Nazi concentration camp existed for the sole purpose of exterminating Jews.

Sobibor uprising is the same as the Treblinka uprising, the uprising which plan was developed by Alexander Pechersky and Leon Feldhendler, Ended up in Mass murder of the Jews

Although, the both uprising lead to death of many Jews ,many Jews still escape meaning that the uprising was not a complete failure..
