History
1 answer:
lina2011 [118]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The word “genocide” was first coined by Polish lawyer Raphäel Lemkin in 1944 in his book Axis Rule in Occupied Europe. It consists of the Greek prefix genos, meaning race or tribe, and the Latin suffix cide, meaning killing. Lemkin developed the term partly in response to the Nazi policies of systematic murder of Jewish people during the Holocaust, but also in response to previous instances in history of targeted actions aimed at the destruction of particular groups of people. Later on, Raphäel Lemkin led the campaign to have genocide recognised and codified as an international crime.

Trees give off oxygen that we need to breathe. Trees reduce the amount of storm water runoff, which reduces erosion and pollution in our waterways and may reduce the effects of flooding. Many species of wildlife depend on trees for habitat. Trees provide food, protection, and homes for many birds and mammals.

True or false: after two previously unsuccessful attempts at independence, mexico was only able to overthrow the peninsulares wh
Scorpion4ik [409]

Mexican independence was achieved when Mestizo and Creole leaders joined forces in the early 1820s so this statement is <u>True</u>.

<h3>How did the Mexicans achieve independence?</h3>

The Mexicans tried to gain independence twice but because they were divided, the Spanish were able to crush both rebellions.

This changed in the early 1820s when Mestizo and Creole leaders joined forces. This led to the installation of a King/ Emperor in the form of Agustin de Iturbide but his reign lasted for just a year.
