Answer: The press served as one of the main tools in spreading nationalism.

Explanation:

During the American Revolution, propaganda placed through the press had a great influence on the spread of nationalism. In Europe, it was a powerful tool for emphasizing people's language as an element of nationalism. The print media replaced the weakening of the church as an institution in the New Age. They were in the hands of secular rulers who emphasized nationalist aspirations through the press. In this way, the collective national consciousness of the people was created. The press is an extremely powerful weapon in spreading nationalist aspirations. The print media technology did not invent nationalism, it is a product of state policies, but it significantly influenced the spread of these ideas.

The American War of Independence is tied to nationalism and the press. Namely, when the English wanted to increase taxes, the press all over America wrote about it. Thanks to the press, the news spread to North America with incredible speed, which led to a revolt among the people. In those years, the press spread negative news about colonial rule and emphasized creating national unity among Americans. Then various movements appeared, such as the Sons of Liberty, which spread national ideas in America through the press, and phenomena like these worried the colonial authorities. The media is still a very strong element in the spread of nationalism.

In the US the Democratic party is considered liberal, while the Republican party is considered conservative.

Which events brought unity to europe and which events brought disruption?

yaroslaw [1]

Unity was brought mainly by the decades-long process of setting up and expanding the European Union in the aftermath of WW 2; also the disappearance of the Iron Curtain in 1989 was a major factor in uniting Europe.

Major disruptive factors were of course the two World Wars, and before 1989, the existence of a Communist-dominated Eastern Europe versus Western Europe.

QveST [7]

Answer:

Since the debt crisis, the idea that public credit is the first step aimed at the loss of national sovereignty through an economic intervention has expanded. China Qing and the Ottoman Empire were caught in the vicious circle of debt

It is a very similar story that two of the most powerful empires of the pre-modern era became states that depend on international credit in the industrial age. Qing China and the Ottoman Empire suffered a long period of decline that ended their imperial status by 1840.

Explanation:

The two countries suffered some kind of crisis towards the second half of the century that pushed them towards indebtedness abroad, which would lead to the contracting of debt in international markets in order to cope with their long decline, and with the hope of modernize their industry. Following that debt would lead them to accept, foreign intervention.

During the war, the Turks, without an army with the power to confront the Egyptians, had to request the help of their former enemies, forcing the intervention of Britain and Russia. International aid was not free, and its price was through the Balta Treaty, where Turkey agrees to adopt a free market system, withholding taxes on imports.

The case of the Qing dynasty in China was very similar. By 1820, the empire showed symptoms of clear economic damage. Stuck in an extremely restrictive trading system, through which all international trade demanded through the Cohong guild, China collided with Western interests during the First Opium War. The defeat marked the beginning of a long process of decline.
