Answer:

Explanation:

Constitutional Convention, (1787), in U.S. history, convention that drew up the Constitution of the United States. Stimulated by severe economic troubles, which produced radical political movements such as Shays’s Rebellion, and urged on by a demand for a stronger central government, the convention met in the Pennsylvania State House in Philadelphia (May 25–September 17, 1787), ostensibly to amend the Articles of Confederation. All the states except Rhode Island responded to an invitation issued by the Annapolis Convention of 1786 to send delegates. Of the 74 deputies chosen by the state legislatures, only 55 took part in the proceedings; of these, 39 signed the Constitution. The delegates included many of the leading figures of the period. Among them were George Washington, who was elected to preside, James Madison, Benjamin Franklin, James Wilson, John Rutledge, Charles Pinckney, Oliver Ellsworth, and Gouverneur Morris.Constitutional Convention, (1787), in U.S. history, convention that drew up the Constitution of the United States.

How did trade and economics contribute to americas entry into World War 1
Leto [7]

Until April 6th, 1917, America was still a declared neutral state and she had tried to keep out of World War 1. However, she had economic relationships with nations involved in the war such as loans and financial support. American Secretary of State William Jennings opposed this financial support of warring nations, arguing that refusing to loan to any Allied nations in Europe would help to accelerate the end of the war. Even though President Wilson agreed at first, he retreated this when France argued that if it was not legal to take out credits from America, then it was not legal to buy American goods as well.  

Regarding this, the American steel industry had faced declining profits during the Recession of 1913–1914. And when the war began in Europe, the increased demand for tools of war began a period of intensified productivity that relieved many U.S. industrial companies.

In 1948 the united nations divided the land Palestine between a arabs and Jews. Which nation was created by is action
DanielleElmas [232]

In 1948,the United Nations divided the land Palestine between an Arab and Jews.United Nations made Palestine and Israel,two independent nations,side by side,in 1948.So we can say that Israel was created by this action of land in 1948.

The modern conflict between Jews and Arabs dates back to the 1910s,when both groups laid claim to the British controlled territory.

The Jews were Zionists,recent emigrants from Europe and Russia who came to the ancient homeland of the Jews to establish a Jewish national state.

The native Palestinian Arabs sought to stem Jewish immigration and set up an Islamic Muslim Palestinian non secular state.

In 1929,Arabs and Jews openly fought in Palestine,and Britain attempted to limit Jewish immigration as a means of appeasing the Arabs.As a result of the Holocaust in Europe,many Jews illegally entered Palestine during World War 2.
