Answer:

The Klondike Gold Rush is credited for helping the United States out of a depression. Still, it had a horrific impact on the local environment, causing massive soil erosion, water contamination, deforestation and loss of native wildlife, among other things. The gold rush also severely impacted the Native people. With that pronouncement, the Klondike Gold Rush was on! Within six months, approximately 100,000 gold-seekers set off for the Yukon. Winter temperatures in the mountains of northern British Columbia and the Yukon were normally -20 degrees F., and temperatures of -50 degrees F.

By the time the stampeders arrived in the Klondike to search for gold, it was too late to leave because the summers are short in the North. Each man had to build shelter for the winter, and then endure seven months of cold, darkness, disease, isolation and monotony.  The Palm Sunday Avalanche on April 3, 1898 is estimated to have killed sixty-five people on the Chilcot Trail.

Answer:

The Klondike Gold Rush was an event of migration by an estimated 100,000 people prospecting to the Klondike region of north-western Canada in the Yukon region between 1896 and 1899. It’s also called the Yukon Gold Rush, the Last Great Gold Rush and the Alaska Gold Rush.

Gold was discovered in many rich deposits along the Klondike River in 1896, but due to the remoteness of the region and the harsh winter climate the news of gold couldn’t travel fast enough to reach the outside world before the following year. Reports of the gold in newspapers created a hysteria that was nation-wide and many people quit their jobs and then left for the Klondike to become gold-diggers.

Why Black Female Activists are so important to us and society?​
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

I think that Female Black Activists are so important to us and society because they had a harder time with segregation than Male Black Activists. Not only did they go through colored segregation but they also went through gender segregation. They werent allowed to work with whites because they were black, and they weren’t allowed to have the same jobs as the black men. If they were smart and wanted to be a physician, they had to do paperwork. And get this, if they had a MAJOR discovery, they had to run it through a MAN! How messed up is that?! They were important because they taught the children, they were brave for their family when everything was hard, they cooked, they cleaned, and they had the guts (most of the time) to speak their mind.

A relatively small group that has broken away from an established church is a group of answer choices denomination. branch. sect
kirill [66]

A relatively small group that has broken away from an established church is a sect.

Usually an offshoot of a larger group, a sect is a subgroup of a religious, political, or philosophical belief system. The phrase once applied to religiously distinct groups, but it is now used to describe any group that separates from a larger one in order to adhere to a different set of rules and values. The perception of heresy by the subgroup and/or the wider group typically leads to the formation of sects.

The Latin noun secta, which means "a path, road" and is the feminine form of the verb sequin's alternate past participle, is where the word sect first appeared. In a figurative sense, a sect is a way, mode, or manner. By way of a collection of practices' and doctrines, a sect is a discipline or school of thought.
