Answer:

The North Sea Empire

Explanation:

The Viking presence dwindled until 1066, when the invading Norsemen lost their final battle with the English at Stamford Bridge. The death in the battle of King Harald Hardrada of Norway ended any hope of reviving Cnut's North Sea Empire; it is because of this, rather than the Norman conquest, that 1066 is often taken as the end of the Viking Age. Nineteen days later, the Normans, themselves descended from Norsemen, invaded England and defeated the weakened English army at the Battle of Hastings.

Answer:

The felling is called Nationalism

Explanation:

Nationalism, in short, would be the feeling of belonging of a subject to a group either by proximity or by the racial, linguistic or historical bond. Thus, it is an ideology that exalts the national state to which the individual belongs rather than the image of what is foreign. Hitler however, raised this feeling to megalomania that scared the world.

Excerpt from civil Disobedience

liq [111]

Answer:

According to the article "Excerpt from civil Disobedience" we can say that it is fair that we do not get involved in problems and disadvantages that are happening in the world, but for that we need to stop exploring each other, so that those who are stuck in these problems can fight your own fight.

Explanation:

"Civil Disobedience" is the most famous work by Henry David Thoreau, where he opposes the practice of paying taxes to governments. In "Excerpt from civil Disobedience" we can see that Thoreau says that no man has a responsibility to solve the problems that exist in the world. This reinforces the idea that nobody has a duty to pay taxes, because the government does not have this responsibility and if it does not fulfill it.

However, Thoreau says that these problems exist and that no one can be prevented from solving them. However, it is necessary that people who are involved in the problem are not exploited or prevented from fighting to solve these problems. We can see elements that serve as a basis for this argument, in our personal life, since we could overcome many of our problems if the State gave us full freedom to do so, instead of being obliged to finance problems of which we are not part.

What event above is being depicted in the cartoon to the right? Explain

anzhelika [568]

Answer:

The political cartoon entitled "He Wouldn't Take it Any Other Way" by Victor Gillam shows the exaggeration that Filipinos were savage-like creatures, unaware of civilization, and lived a rather outdated lifestyle similar to the Native-Americans. Another exaggeration in this comic is the paper at the end of the knife pointing towards the Filipino man reading:

'Liberty and Civilization'

which basically represents the Americans' view of the Filipinos being reluctant to accept the United States' offers of "liberty and civilization" which they forced upon the Filipinos to accept, anyway.

The "bringer" of "Liberty & Civilization" is depicted as the United States (drawn by an American at the time). The bringer seems to be using force and threatens the Filipino with a knife. This demonstrates how the United States will go as far as threatening those of the land which they are trying to posses.

The message of this cartoon is somewhat biased, however it could be depicted as something along the lines of the following:

- The Filipinos were underdeveloped people who were reluctant to accept the offers of the willing Americans, and the only way they'd accept is if the Americans threatened them.

- The Philippines were possessed by the United States and, willing to improve and maintain their territory, were reluctant about accepting what the U.S. has to offer.

The message of the cartoonist seems to lean towards the first message, and that the United States only wanted to help the Philippines.

Obviously, with the cartoonist's message in mind, they are in favor of U.S. imperialism, as the expansion of U.S. territory out of boundaries is no problem, even if those of the territory are reluctant towards the idea.
