History

Answer:

The correct answer is that in some ways it did, and in some other ways it did not.

Explanation:

For example, colonialism brought economic development to many colonies. In India, the British build a large railroad network that crosses the country, and that is still in used to this day. In Latin America, the Spanish founded many universities in each of their colonies, that continue to be important institutions of education and thought.

However, in many other ways, colonialism did not improve the lives of those colonized. Colonialism often brought war, violence, slaughter, and even genocide to the colonized populations. It also led to the destruction of many ethnic and domestic cultures and ways and thoughts.

So in conclusion, it depends on the country, the period, the aspect that is being treated, and the analysis that is made.

What was the romantic image of the West, and what was the reality?
svetlana [45]

After the Civil War Americans began considering expanding into the west of the nation. They were inspired by the vast land and excited by its opportunities. This excitement of Manifest Destiny helped to create the American Dream. The Great expanse of the American Midwest was idealized as a vast picturesque, open expanse with the limitless possibility in store for those willing and able to tame the land. The problem was that were was no wood on the plains, Mountains made building the railroad more difficult and the barren, dry landscape made settling a challenge.

Families went to the West excited to create a life of their own out of nothing. The idea of farming brought them a great opportunity. But farming in the Plains revealed to be very challenging. The landscape was incredibly dry and there was a minimal rainfall. Families struggled to keep their crops growing and producing, and when they succeeded, storms often destroyed their harvests.

There was also a myth regarding the Native Americans that pictured them as uncivilized savages. However the Native culture was an advanced and sophisticated one, and the term uncivilized depends on one’s viewpoint. They were always depicted as the villain of the story, often the one-dimensional character that is bent on theft in fictional stories.

Which group does not trace its origins from the Anabaptists?
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

Jehovah Witnesses

Explanation:

Anabaptists believe that baptism is valid only when candidates freely confess their faith in Christ and request to be baptized. This believer's baptism is opposed to the baptism of infants, who are not able to make a conscious decision to be baptized.  

According to my research, the Amish, baptists, and Mennonites originate from anabaptists.

If this is wrong, very sorry :/
