Answer:

C. It was unfair to tax the colonists since they were not represented in the British Parliament.

Explanation:

The phrase taxation without representation describes a populace that is required to pay taxes to a government authority without having any say in that government's policies. The term has its origin in a slogan of the American colonials against their British rulers: "Taxation without representation is tyranny."1

In 1898 the United States annexed Hawaii. Which scenario BEST describes what the word 'annexed' means?
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

b) Hawaii became fully controlled by the United States and lost all self-autonomy.

Explanation:

The word <u>"annexed" means to put or take over control of some weaker or smaller nation by a larger power by force and take it under their power</u>. This allows the greater power to wield authority over the governance and control everything, making the native power redundant.

When the United States annexed Hawaii, it controlled everything and took power from the monarch. <u>Hawaii became a part of the United States, fully controlled by it</u>. The island also <u>lost its self-autonomy</u>, meaning the United States made all rules and laws, and the leaders of the island and their power or authority is useless.

Thus, the correct answer is option b.

What 1997 global agreement to reduce greenhouse gases was signed by virtually every country in the world except for the united s
Furkat [3]

Answer:

The Kyoto Protocol

Explanation:

In the year of 1997, in Kyoto, Japan, the Kyoto Protocol was signed by pretty much everyone, apart from the United States. The purpose of the Kyoto Protocol has been to limit and decrease the carbon dioxide emissions in the atmosphere, based on the usage of the fossil fuels, in order to stop the global warming and the harm to the environment. While everyone agreed with it and signed it, the United States did not. The excuse of the United States was that it will harm their economy, their development, and that the country will not be able to cope with it. After that, China did the same, with the excuse of ''if they want to develop and progress, we should be able to do it as well''. Nowadays we have a situation where these countries don't obey to the Kyoto Protocol and they are responsible for almost half of the global emissions of carbon dioxide, while the smaller polluters are giving their best to decrease the usage of fossil fuels and reduce the emissions.
