What was trade like between European and Africans before the 1800’s ?

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

Traders from Europe went to West Africa and offered cloth, rum, salt, and other goods in exchange for slaves. Many Africans became wealthy by trading slaves for goods like these. In addition to these goods, the European traders also offered to trade guns for slaves.

European trading had a transforming impact on Africa. Europeans poured into Africa enormous volumes of commerce, the whole range of European manufactured goods and hardware, notably firearms, luxury goods (especially alcohol) and transhipped items from Asia (particularly textiles).

This political cartoon was drawn in 1889 at the height of the "Gilded Age." Explain the purpose & symbolism of the cartoon.

agasfer [191]

Answer:

Explanation:

"The Bosses of the Senate" was a political/satirical cartoon that was drawn by Joseph Keppler.

The purpose of the cartoon was to show how the wealthy monopolists or rich businessmen controlled the Senate in order to gain more power and money. During the "Gilded Age," political issues arose, such as the interest given to businessmen regarding tariff and business policies. Through the Senate, they were supported through their tariffs and were given business policies that were friendly.

The cartoon portrays many symbols. The entrances to the Senate in the picture were two: the "People's Entrance" and the "Monopolists' Entrance." The monopolists' entrance was widely-opened and proximal, while the people's entrance was closed and distal. This clearly shows how the monopolists can immediately gain an easy access to the Senate, while the people cannot do anything. The fat people at the back represents the monopolists (who are considered the bosses of the Senate), while the smaller people in front represents the Senate. Their fat body is a representation of greediness and their being at the immediate back of the Senate, represents their control over the Senate. This means that the monopolists during the Gilded Age had an easier influence when it comes to the policies regarding their businesses.
