The
Scarlet Letter shows readers the lives of a Puritan community in the 17th
century. Religion (blind religion) meant everything to them, and the words of
their Reverends was law. Breaking any religious rules was punished by public
humiliation and punishment of the person who committed it, for example, Hester
Prynne. When the church found out that she was committing adultery, they forced
her to wear a scarlet letter 'A' on her chest, so that her sin could follow her
everywhere and she (and others in the community), could be constantly reminded
of it. <span>
<span>This kind of belief in punishing supposed "sinners"
made relationships between men and women in this Puritan community very
strained. Religion governed their way of life. They failed to realize that no
human is perfect, and no human can precisely follow that kind of a lifestyle.
In the end, when the reader finds out who the man was that Hester had committed
adultery with, it is obvious what Hawthorne was trying to communicate about
such strict organized religion; no one is as perfect as God, therefore looking
up to reverends and priests in such a blind belief is dangerous because they
are only human and make similar mistakes as everyone else.</span></span>
<span>Geography is the study of how the land of the world is made up. This also includes the peoples, animals, and plant life in these various areas.
Without a clear knowledge of geography, you cannot understand how the make up of the land and other factors influence history throughout its many events.
For example, how could you describe the history of world exploration, if you don't know where any place is, or what it looks like?</span>
The Jim Crow laws supported the mistreatment
The north army is known as the Union army and the south army is called to be Confederate.
Explanation:
there were theaters of war and the theater is a large area which is not yet taken. Army of Potomac is the major union army and the army of Virginia is the main army of southern states. Citizens opened recruiting offices, went on rallies and and signed up voluntarily the document which wanted him to become a soldier. Willingness to fight and the spirit of nationalism is high due to the union recruiting offices and the confederates have to open offices prior to the union offices because of its smaller population. Each state in the north as well as south were responsible for raising armies.
Conscription laws were passed to fill the positions in the army. It was observed that the confederate soldiers were considered to be highly trained and abled whereas the union soldiers took a long time to get trained in order to make a come back. Desertion used to be a major problem in the confederates. Union had more troops and good rifles. Confederates were better led by the Army general and had higher morale. Union believed in anti slavery dictum whereas Confederates believed in slavery.
That would be B, The British.
