place the following major events and processes from the early history of the americas in chronological order.

denis23 [38]

The chronological order from oldest to newest is: Paleoamerican, Archaic Period, Preclassic Period, Classic Period, and Postclassic Period.

<h3>How are the periods of early America organized chronologically?</h3>

The historical development of early America is divided into four major stages in which the communities that populated America developed different dynamics, these stages were:

Paleoamerican: This period is considered the initial and longest era in American history because it includes all the events that occurred approximately before 8000 BC. c.

During that time the first stone tools and the foundations of the ethnic and linguistic diversity of pre-Columbian America were developed.

Archaic period of America: (8,000 BC - 1,500 BC) This period coincides with the beginning of the Holocene, when the ice ages ended and the entire planet suffered global warming.

During this period the prehistoric peoples, totally nomadic, discovered agriculture and began a process of sedentarization.

The Preclassic Period of America: (between 1500 BC and 292) This period is characterized by the fact that the communities began to form sedentary towns and around this the formation of more complex societies took place, initially in Mesoamerica and the Central Andes.

Classic Period of America: (292 and 900) This period is considered the era of splendor of the most outstanding civilizations of the continent, especially in Mesoamerica, such as the Maya.

This period is characterized by the fact that civilizations grew, they built large cities using large stones that they carved for that purpose. They also improved agricultural, goldsmith, metallurgy and ceramic and social techniques for publication.

Postclassic Period of America: (1000 and 1500) This is the last period before the meeting of the continent with Europe and at this time the great American empires are consolidated, especially the Aztecs and Incas, and other civilizations such as the Mayans. Additionally, the indigenous confederation of South America was formed: the Muiscas.

Write a one page diary entry about life in the Ghettos.You can include wider research to help you with this. Describe what it wa

laiz [17]

Answer:

Life in the ghettos was usually unbearable. Overcrowding was common. One apartment might have several families living in it. Plumbing broke down, and human waste was thrown in the streets along with the garbage. Contagious diseases spread rapidly in such cramped, unsanitary housing. People were always hungry. Germans deliberately tried to starve residents by allowing them to purchase only a small amount of bread, potatoes, and fat. Some residents had some money or valuables they could trade for food smuggled into the ghetto; others were forced to beg or steal to survive. During the long winters, heating fuel was scarce, and many people lacked adequate clothing. People weakened by hunger and exposure to the cold became easy victims of disease; tens of thousands died in the ghettos from illness, starvation, or cold. Some individuals killed themselves to escape their hopeless lives.

Every day children became orphaned, and many had to take care of even younger children. Orphans often lived on the streets, begging for bits of bread from others who had little or nothing to share. Many froze to death in the winter.

In order to survive, children had to be resourceful and make themselves useful. Small children in the Warsaw ghetto sometimes helped smuggle food to their families and friends by crawling through narrow openings in the ghetto wall. They did so at great risk, as smugglers who were caught were severely punished.

Many young people tried to continue their education by attending school classes organized by adults in many ghettos. Since such classes were usually held secretly, in defiance of the Nazis, pupils learned to hide books under their clothes when necessary, to avoid being caught.

Although suffering and death were all around them, children did not stop playing with toys. Some had beloved dolls or trucks they brought into the ghetto with them. Children also made toys, using whatever bits of cloth and wood they could find. In the Lodz ghetto, children turned the tops of empty cigarette boxes into playing cards.

Explain why you think the close ties between church and state in Massachusetts helped or hurt their government?

Sladkaya [172]

<span>The close ties between the church and the state in Massachusetts did not help the government, but rather hurt the government. Although the Church and the government had close ties with each other but still it was not right for the church to have a say in the government. Church would always want the members of their religion in the government and that would have a negative impact on the government and people as a whole. General people’s ideas would not find importance if the government was controlled by the church. </span>

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

Roaring twenties

Explanation:

Roaring twenties was age of political and social change,It lasted from 1920 to 1929 and was followed by the Great depression.

It was the time when more Americans were living in cities than on countryside and US wealth doubled from 1920 to 1929. Due to this economic growth American society became a society of consumers.

The mass consumer culture of 20's also led to economic slowdown. The companies were producing more and offered the goods on easy instalments and this motivated people to spend more and save less and it led to overproduction

Roaring twenties culture was also different from before as women roles has changed. Women had gotten the right to vote and a new liberal young woman emerged whose dressing was more liberal and listened to new form of music called jazz.
