The correct answer is the following.

The War of 1812.

Military engagement at Fort Detroit = British and American Indians took US soldiers as prisoners of war.​

Battle of Lake Champlain = The British launched an unsuccessful attack on New England.

Battle of the Thames = William Henry Harrison defeated the British and Tecumseh's troops.

Military engagement at Lake Erie = Oliver Perry led the US Navy to a victory.

The War of 1812 confronted again the United States against Great Britain due to the impressment or kidnapping of Americans by the British Navy. The problem persisted until United States President James Madison had to ask Congress for a declaration of war.

What law established the first federal minimum wage and abolished child labor?
Margaret [11]

Answer:

Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938

Explanation:

The Supreme Court had been one of the major obstacles to wage-hour and child-labor laws. Among notable cases is the 1918 case of Hammer v. Dagenhart in which the Court by one vote held unconstitutional a Federal child-labor law. Similarly in Adkins v. Children's Hospital in 1923, the Court by a narrow margin voided the District of Columbia law that set minimum wages for women. During the 1930's, the Court's action on social legislation was even more devastating.3

New Deal promise. In 1933, under the "New Deal" program, Roosevelt's advisers developed a National Industrial Recovery Act (NRA).4 The act suspended antitrust laws so that industries could enforce fair-trade codes resulting in less competition and higher wages. On signing the bill, the President stated: "History will probably record the National Industrial Recovery Act as the most important and far-reaching legislation ever enacted by the American Congress." The law was popular, and one family in Darby, Penn., christened a newborn daughter Nira to honor it.

As an early step of the NRA, Roosevelt promulgated a President's Reemployment Agreement "to raise wages, create employment, and thus restore business." Employers signed more than 2.3 million agreements, covering 16.3 million employees. Signers agreed to a workweek between 35 and 40 hours and a minimum wage of $12 to $15 a week and undertook, with some exceptions, not to employ youths under 16 years of age. Employers who signed the agreement displayed a "badge of honor," a blue eagle over the motto "We do our part." Patriotic Americans were expected to buy only from "Blue Eagle" business concerns.

In the meantime, various industries developed more complete codes. The Cotton Textile Code was the first of these and one of the most important. It provided for a 40-hour workweek, set a minimum weekly wage of $13 in the North and $12 in the South, and abolished child labor. The President said this code made him "happier than any other one thing...since I have come to Washington, for the code abolished child labor in the textile industry." He added: "After years of fruitless effort and discussion, this ancient atrocity went out in a day."

Why did North Ireland, Egypt, Trans-Jordan, Syria, and Palestine fight on the side of the Allies
AVprozaik [17]
They were colonies of great Britain
Great Britain had taken over the areas and declared them to be British spheres of interests following the decline of the Ottoman empire. Egypt specifically was of prime significance to Britain as it was the new route to India and the colonies in the Eastern coast of Africa.
