History

Yuki888 [10]3 years ago
8 0
As World War I erupts in Europe, President Woodrow Wilson formally proclaims the neutrality of the United States, a position that a vast majority of Americans favored, on August 4, 1914. After a fierce debate in Congress, in November of 1939, a final Neutrality Act passed. This Act lifted the arms embargo and put all trade with belligerent nations under the terms of “cash-and-carry.” The ban on loans remained in effect, and American ships were barred from transporting goods to belligerent ports.

Compare and contrast the American and French Revolutions. 
lawyer [7]

The French Revolution and American Revolution were the instances of civilians rebelling against their government. The French rebelled against their government in a violent manner, as did the Americans.


Similarities : - The French Revolution and American Revolution are similar. They are similar because the people who rebelled were ordinary citizens taking up arms and attacking their governments. This is significant because both revolutions had this connection. In the same manner, the muskets and artillery were used to attack each other into submission. The people no longer marched in blasting away at each other. In comparison, the first instances of declaring independence were used, not seen in the magnitude that they were declared in before. That shows that the two revolutions are the same.


 Differences : - The American Revolution and French Revolution have differences as well. One of them is the fact that the American's had warships and the French rebels did not. This is significant because the French rebels did not have a navy as the Americans had a navy. In contrast to the similarities between the French Revolution and American Revolutions, the Americans were a colony that rebelled against their own government. This is significant because the American colonists probably had more time to prepare for an invasion and as an addition to, the country of Britain was far away from America. In spite of all the similarities, the American Colonists had uniforms and the French did not.

In the 1920s were young women who reacted against traditional roles for women?
Wewaii [24]

The correct answer to question one is B) The Flapper. Although Flappers were inspired by the earlier Gibson Girls that had existed 30 years before, they rose to prominence during the 1920s. Their hair was bobbed, they listened to Jazz, were sexually active and promiscuous and far more independent and assertive than their older female counterparts. Good examples are renowned actress Louise Brooks and Daisy Fay Buchanan from the novel <em>The Great Gatsby by </em>F. Scott Fitzgerald<em>.</em>

The correct answer to question two is: True. The driving notion behind this societal shift was The Lost Generation. WWI or The Great War as it was known at the time greatly shocked and horrified both the veteran survivors and civilians throughout all belligerent nations. The Spanish Flu pandemic also killed millions of children and youngsters. Young people (including women, e.g. Flappers) considered that life was too short and uncertain to not enjoy it as much as possible since it might be over soon due to war or disease. they also criticized the rampant materialism of their generation.

Which of these BEST gives the time period associated with "Manifest Destiny?"
kati45 [8]

Historian Frederick Merk says this concept was born out of "a sense of mission to redeem the Old World by high example ... generated by the potentialities of a new earth for building a new heaven".[4]

Historians have emphasized that "manifest destiny" was a contested concept—pre-civil war Democrats endorsed the idea but many prominent Americans (such as Abraham Lincoln, Ulysses S. Grant, and most Whigs) rejected it. Historian Daniel Walker Howe writes, "American imperialism did not represent an American consensus; it provoked bitter dissent within the national polity ... Whigs saw America's moral mission as one of democratic example rather than one of conquest."[5]

Newspaper editor John O'Sullivan is generally credited with coining the term manifest destiny in 1845 to describe the essence of this mindset, which was a rhetorical tone;[6] however, the unsigned editorial titled "Annexation" in which it first appeared was arguably written by journalist and annexation advocate Jane Cazneau.[7] The term was used by Democrats in the 1840s to justify the war with Mexico and it was also used to divide half of Oregon with the United Kingdom. But manifest destiny always limped along because of its internal limitations and the issue of slavery, says Merk. It never became a national priority. By 1843 John Quincy Adams, originally a major supporter of the concept underlying manifest destiny, had changed his mind and repudiated expansionism because it meant the expansion of slavery in Texas.
