Answer:

British Mandate
Arab-Israeli War
Balfour Declaration

Balfour Declaration

Following the defeat of the Ottoman Empire in World War I, the British assumed control of Palestine. In November 1917, the British government issued the Balfour Declaration, announcing its intention to facilitate the "establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people." In 1922, the League of Nations granted Britain a mandate over Palestine which included, among other things, provisions calling for the establishment of a Jewish homeland, facilitating Jewish immigration and encouraging Jewish settlement on the land.

Arab-Israel War

The Arabs were opposed to Jewish immigration to Palestine and stepped up their attacks against the Jews. Following an increase in Arab attacks, the British appointed a royal commission in 1936 to investigate the Palestine situation. The Peel Commission recommended the partition of the country between Arabs and Jews. The Arabs rejected the idea while the Jews accepted the principle of partition.

At the end of World War II, the British persisted in their immigration restrictions and Jewish survivors of the Holocaust were violently turned away from the shores of Palestine. The Jewish Agency and the Haganah continued to smuggle Jews into Palestine. Underground cells of Jews, most notably the Irgun and Lehi, engaged in open warfare against the British and their installations.

The British concluded that they could no longer manage Palestine and handed the issue over to the United Nations. On November 29, 1947, after much debate and discussion, the UN recommended the partition of Palestine into two states one Jewish and one Arab. The Jews accepted the UN resolution while the Arabs rejected it.

British Mandate

Meanwhile, since the time of the British Mandate, the Jewish community in Palestine had been forming political, social and economic institutions that governed daily life in Palestine and served as a pre-state infrastructure. Zionist leader David Ben-Gurion (1886-1973) served as head of the pre-state government.

The British mandate over Palestine officially terminated at midnight, May 14, 1948. Earlier in the day, at 4:00 p.m., David Ben-Gurion proclaimed the creation of the State of Israel and became its first prime minister. Longtime advocate of Zionism in Britain Chaim Weizmann (1874-1952) became Israel's first president. On May 15, the United States recognized the State of Israel and the Soviet Union soon followed suit.

The fledgling State of Israel was faced with many challenges. While fighting a war of survival with the Arab states who immediately invaded the new nation, Israel had to also absorb the shiploads of immigrants coming in daily to the Jewish homeland. Many were penniless refugees from Europe broken in body and in spirit. They needed immediate health and social services in addition to acculturation to their new home.

Answer:

Transcendentalism is an American literary, political, and philosophical movement of the early nineteenth century, centered around Ralph Waldo Emerson. Other important transcendentalists were Henry David Thoreau, Margaret Fuller, Amos Bronson Alcott, Frederic Henry Hedge, and Theodore Parker. Stimulated by English and German Romanticism, the Biblical criticism of Herder and Schleiermacher, and the skepticism of Hume, the transcendentalists operated with the sense that a new era was at hand. They were critics of their contemporary society for its unthinking conformity, and urged that each person find, in Emerson's words, “an original relation to the universe” (O, 3). Emerson and Thoreau sought this relation in solitude amidst nature, and in their writing. By the 1840s they, along with other transcendentalists, were engaged in the social experiments of Brook Farm, Fruitlands, and Walden; and, by the 1850s in an increasingly urgent critique of American slavery.

notka56 [123]

The Afghanistan War took a heavy financial toll on the Soviet Union during the 1980s. Similar to the American invasion of Afghanistan in the early 2000s, the Soviets realized it to be very difficult to defeat an enemy when an invading force attempts to restructure another nation's government or eradicated a non-political force (such as the Mujaheddin or al-Qaeda).

Answer:

1. Slavery

2. Republicans

3. Democrats

Explanation:

Slavery is the main reason the states fought and was a prevalent issue in the states for a long time mainly starting at the 3/5ths compromise. The two parties of Republican and Democrat were origianlly created as a single party, lead by Thomas Jefferson and James Madison, but were split into the Whig Party and The Democrats after a political division inside the party about the election of 1824. In the mid-nineteenth century the Democrats were split on the issue of slavery and eventually the Democrats in the north (+ the Whig Party and some other politicians) joined together to make a new Republican party that was against slavery (leaving the southern Democrats as pro-slavery).

Eddi Din [679]

Nationalism spread across Europe during Napoleon's time. It was repressed for a generation under the Congress of Vienna and the Concert of Europe until the revolutions of 1845/1845. The term "Nationalism" can be defined as a group of people with the same nationality should unite together under a single flag. Napoleon nationalised France and then moved across the rest of Europe, conquering countries along the way. Eventually, Napolean was defeated and the Congress of Vienna was held by the heads of the European countries. The aim of these meeting was to ensure peace and stability in Europe. The revolutions of 1845/1848 overthrew the repressive European governments of the day.
