What was the reason for the drastic increase in congressional staff during the 20th century?
Georgia [21]
<span>Congressional staff increased greatly in the 20th century due to the shift in politics from grassroots to higher levels of lobbying, groups and special interests. The congress person was not only invested in their district but in those special interest groups requesting meetings and events with the congressperson. By increasing staff, they would be able to learn more about these groups and lobbyists so they could make a more informed decision. It also allowed the staff to deal directly with the public. A congressman in the early 20th century would only have in person visits and the occasional phone call, but by the end of the 20th century, the congressperson would have contact via appointment, call, letter, email and even rudimentary instant contact via Instant Messenger and sites like Myspace.</span>

What country claimed land west of the original 13 colonies
Alex

Hello!

The only two country's that were nearby by the time of the colonies were Spain and France. The Spanish had first claimed the Columbia islands and from there had explored into what is now known as Mexico, Florida, and South America. This is all south of the 13 Colonies. Then there is the French. The French had claimed Canada and then they decided to move south to gain more land.

So your answer is The French.

I hope it helps!

What effect did Iconoclast Controversy have on Byzantine society
mamaluj [8]
The use of images had probably been increasing in the years leading up to the outbreak of iconoclasm.[6]<span> One notable change came in 695, when </span>Justinian II<span> put a full-faced image of Christ on the </span>obverse<span> of his gold coins. The effect on iconoclast opinion is unknown, but the change certainly caused </span>Caliph Abd al-Malik<span> to break permanently with his previous adoption of Byzantine coin types to start a purely Islamic coinage with lettering only.</span>[7]<span> This appears more like two opposed camps asserting their positions (pro and anti images) than one empire seeking to imitate the other. More striking is the fact that Islamic iconoclasm rejected any depictions of living people or animals, not only religious images. By contrast, Byzantine iconomachy concerned itself only with the question of the holy presence (or lack thereof) of images. </span>
