Answer:

A. Craftspeople

Explanation:

Impacts of Industrialization

As factories expanded to manufacture things other than textiles, the process of making goods became highly mechanized. And as machine production replaced handcrafts, the level of skill required to manufacture items went down. Operating a machine in a factory took far less skill than making something by hand. As a result, manufacturing products' manufacturing process became cheaper, allowing the middle classes to buy more consumer products. Along with this, however, the wages for working-class laborers dropped and some trades had a difficult time competing with machines. When factories and machines replaced workshops and handcrafted work, tradespeople became workers. As workers tied to an employer, they were forced to accept lower wages for less-skilled jobs. This shift from skilled to unskilled labor made it difficult for workers to demand better working conditions and pay since factory workers were easy to train and easy to replace. This meant that workers could do little about their low wages or the difficult working conditions in the factories.  

Working conditions in factories were incredibly harsh. Workdays were often as long as 16 hours with very few breaks. Factory conditions were uncomfortable and unsafe. With all the machines running, room temperatures could become very hot, and the conditions were crowded. Working the machines could be hazardous, and injuries and even deaths were common. And, despite all these risks and poor conditions, the wages were quite low.

Why did many Americans protest the Vietnam War? Why or why not?
Setler79 [48]
<span>Many Americans opposed the war on moral grounds, opposed by the devastation and violence of the war. Others claimed the conflict was a war against Vietnamese independence, or an intervention in a foreign civil war; others opposed it because they felt it lacked clear objectives and appeared to be unwinnable.</span>

What constitutes a complex society and how do they compare with the neolithic communities that come before?
nalin [4]
Complex societies are characterized by a large population living in an area, with an agricultural surplus which supports a healthy and growing population.

This eventually gives away to a clear distinction between various classes based on their jobs and wealth they possess. Again, this further gives rise to a culture, tradition and laws of the society to be developed.

However, neolithic communities of the stone ages were more simple in nature with the largest communities not more than a couple of hundred people, mostly from within the same extended family.

Farming was not abundant and many of these communities were scavengers and nomads who would travel in different seasons for better farming land.

Due to this, a complete complex society was able to develop in one place.

Publius, Roman aristocrat, was one of the people responsible in overthrowing the monarchy.
