Answer:

How voting restrictions impacted African Americans during this era.

African Americans were slaves who were brought to America through large vessels from Africa to work on plantations and homes. They were mostly maltreated and killed on very flimsy excuses and whenever it suited their masters.

The slaves eventually began to rebel and it was a hard struggle before they gained their freedom and the government recognized them as citizens.

However, even though they were recognized as citizens, they were denied access to voting which was their right by means such as paying huge amounts of money for poll taxes, disqualifying the black voters on the grounds of illiteracy and outright intimidation and thus tactic was largely successful. A grandfather clause was also set up which stated that unless your grandfather had previously voted, you couldn't vote, and this was impossible for the African Americans because their grandparents were slaves.

However, in the 1930s,a law was eventually passed that granted the African Americans the right to vote without paying poll taxes or taking literary tests

Does any president deserve credit for an economic boom or recession? Who is more important in influencing the economy-the presid

stepan [7]

Every year, the Federal Reserve conducts a massive survey of American households to paint a portrait of their economic habits and spirits. The recently published findings for 2017 are worth examining for what they say about who should — and shouldn't — get credit for the resilient U.S. economy.

There is nothing unusual about this. When the economy does well, presidents of both parties routinely brag about the results. Trump did just that last week with the latest jobs report. But as I — and many other commentators — have written, the $20 trillion economy is simply too big and complicated to be easily manipulated for partisan advantage.

Answer:

World War I

World War I was also catastrophic but total casualties are much harder to calculate as deaths were not well documented. Some sources estimate that there were over 10 million military deaths plus civilian casualties, of which there are thought to be even more (so in total, the number of deaths is estimated at 20 million or more).

World War II

The largest and bloodiest war of the 20th century (and of all time) was World War II. The conflict, which lasted from 1939 to 1945, involved most of the planet. When it was finally over, between 62 and 78 million are estimated to have died. Of that enormous group, which represents about 3 percent of the entire world population at the time, the huge majority (over 50 million) were civilians.

Factoring in the deaths caused by the 1918 influenza epidemic, spread by returning soldiers at the end of World War I, this war's death total is much higher. The epidemic alone was responsible for at least 50 million deaths.

Russian Civil War

The third bloodiest war of the 20th century was the Russian Civil War. This war caused the death of an estimated 13.5 million people, almost 10% of the population—12 million civilians and 1.5 million soldiers. Unlike the two world wars, however, the Russian Civil War did not spread across Europe or beyond. Rather, it was a struggle for power following the Russian Revolution, and it pitted the Bolsheviks, headed by Lenin, against a coalition called the White Army.

Interestingly, the Russian Civil War was over 14 times deadlier than the American Civil War. By comparison, the latter was a much smaller war that resulted in 642,427 Union casualties and 483,026 Confederate casualties. However, the American Civil War, which began in 1861 and ended in 1865, was by far the deadliest war in history for the United States. The second deadliest in terms of American soldier fatality was World War II with a grand total of 416,800 military deaths.
