What is significant about the text of the oath giving the person taking it a choice between the words "swear” and "affirm?"​

History

DaniilM [7]3 years ago
8 0
An oath is a verbal promise to tell the truth made while holding the Bible. A witness may choose to swear an oath on another relevant religious text. An affirmation is a verbal, solemn and formal declaration, which is made in place of an oath. A person may choose to make an affirmation rather than taking an oath. It’s making sure they promise not to break it and if they do they have their own words against them.

Explain the meaning behind the term Pax Romana.
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

The term "Pax Romana," which literally means "Roman peace," refers to the time period from 27 B.C.E. to 180 C.E. in the Roman Empire. This 200-year period saw unprecedented peace and economic prosperity throughout the Empire, which spanned from England in the north to Morocco in the south and Iraq in the east. During the Pax Romana, the Roman Empire reached its peak in terms of land area, and its population swelled to an estimated 70 million people. Nevertheless, Rome's citizens were relatively secure, and the government generally maintained law, order, and stability. The Pax Romana began when Octavian became the leader of the Roman Empire.

Germany hoped to achieve a quick victory in the First World War by invading which country first?
Levart [38]


The best answer is  C

The plan to attack France first was a plan by the German Chief of General Staff, Alfred Von Schlieffen which he came up with way back  in 1905.

He decided that France was the enemy to be defeated first, with Russia held off until the French were annihilated. He  worked out a detailed time timetable that took into account possible French responses to German actions. He believed that Germany would defeat France within six weeks, then after that  he would turn his full force on Russia. 

Schlieffen plan was heavily modified by his successor Moltke, thus during the outbreak of WWI in 1914, it was not implemented  as Schlieffen had envisioned.

The majority of people who immigrated to America in the late 1800s and early 1900s
sasho [114]

The majority of people who immigrated to America in the late 1800s and early 1900s worked at challenging jobs in the cities. They worked in the industrial field.  

 

EXPLANATION  

 

Periods of mass immigration occurred from 1880 to 1920. During these periods the contribution of immigrants and their offspring to the growth and transformation of the American labor industry was quite high. This can be seen from the presence of immigrant communities and their homes in big cities, even with varying living conditions. Based on this fact, it means that they were the mainstay of the American industrial workforce.

In 1920, more than half of manufacturing workers were immigrants and their children. If it’s calculated with the third generation (grandchildren of immigrants), there were more than two-thirds of workers in the manufacturing sector are immigrants. On the other hand, native-born workers were seen as less interested in the industrial field, although higher wages were received plus better working conditions. The pace and scale of the American industrial revolution seemed to slow down if judged from there.

In the 1920s, the door to mass immigration was closed. This is an attempt by the government to increase recruitment for native-born workers, especially native Southern workers sent to industrial cities in the north.
