History
1 answer:
DochEvi [55]3 years ago

Answer:

Mystery religion, any of various secret cults of the Greco-Roman world that offered to individuals religious experiences not provided by the official public religions. They originated in tribal ceremonies that were performed by primitive peoples in many parts of the world.

Explanation, the word mystery is derived from the Greek verb mien (“to close”), referring to the lips and the eyes.

History  

Dionysiac

In every Greek city the god Dionysus was worshipped by fraternities and sororities and also by mixed communities. Dionysus was a god of fruitfulness and vegetation but especially of wine. The Dionysiac festivals provided an opportunity for stepping outside of the daily routine. The festivals included not only drinking wine and engaging in sexual activity but also participating in such significant features of Greek civilization as choral singing and mimes. In many cases, only the initiated could participate in the ceremonies. As almost every Greek did join in, initiation into the Dionysiac cult might be compared to tribal initiations. It seems that initiation into the Dionysiac Mysteries was accompanied by initiation into sexual life.

Answer:

People like Sanford Dole needed the island to be part of the United States to ensure their entrance to American sugar markets.

Explanation:

Hawaii was a kingdom until 1893 when American planters established corp to overthrow Queen Liliuokalani. Hawaii became a republic in 1894. In 1840, a constitutional monarchy was established, stripping the Hawaiian monarch authority. The economic reasons have contributed to the overthrow of the Queen from power. American planters generated money in Hawaii through sugar plantations. Sugar exports to the United States expanded greatly over the period, and American investors and sugar planters on the islands increased their domination over affairs to establish their control over the people in Hawaii.

in your opinion,how will WW2 help form or strengthen the civil rights movement during the 1960s for african american ?
masha68 [24]

After the World War II and all of the terrors witnessed through it on ethnic and racial basis, the international community was determined that something like that should never happen again, and that all humans are equal and deserve the same rights.

That benefited the African American population in the United States a lot, as they now had the basis and support with which they were able to push through to gain all of the rights they deserve, thus be equal with all of the rest. That led to the formation of multiple organizations for the rights of the African Americans, widespread propaganda, protests, and eventually it gave a positive result, with the African Americans gaining all of the rights they deserved, but also putting the racism aside in the American society.
