History
1 answer:
olga nikolaevna [1]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The vast majority of the Americas were controlled by European states until the late 18th century. The only exceptions were a few areas in the extreme geographical points of the continent, like Patagonia in South America, or Northern Canada.

Explanation:

Slowly, people from the Americas began to rebel against the European colonizers. The first were the Americans in the English colonies, who founded the United States. The Haitians in the island of Hispaniola followed soon, rebelling against the French. In the following decades, the lands dominated by the Spanish Empire rebelled, and by 1830, Spain had lost all its former colonies but Cuba and Puerto Rico.

By the end of the 19th century, there were very few colonies in the Americas, mostly small Caribbean Islands, some of which are still colonies.

Does the existence of many and conflicting moral viewpoints mean that, logically, there are no answers to moral questions? Expla
Leno4ka [110]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The existence of many and conflicting moral viewpoints means that, logically, there are no answers to moral questions but the individual has to develop their own moral concepts that are going to be applied when it decides on an ethical issue.

Ethics studies the moral acts of human beings. Morals study the decisions that stem from the conscience. So there is no logic or reasoning because every individual has its set of moral rules or standards, depending on its culture, race, ethnicity, values, or traditions.  So when the individual is about to make a decision, he or she is aware that there is going to be consequences from that decision and the individual has to live by those consequences.

alexgriva [62]

Two inventions from the World War two are the radar and the sonar, both of which had a huge impact in the war, but also after it, becoming a widely used devices all over the world.

The radar was an invention that was enabling detection of objects in the air. Initially it is was used for detection of planes, as that's where the biggest threat was coming. This device enabled the soldiers and the civilians to be warned about the oncoming danger, but also to be able to respond adequately to the threat.

The sonar was another invention inspired by the war. It had the same basic purpose as the radar, just that it was used for detecting objects in the water. This was a crucial instrument that gave the submarines big advantage in locating the enemy and destroying it, or if not capable of that, being able to move away and avoid it.
