The cold war never evolved fighting with weapons between the U.S. and the Soviet Union True or False I don't know the answer.

1 answer:

8 0

The Cold War was really just a disagreement between the Soviet Union and the US about economic systems. Yeah, they had the Arms Race, but they really were just competing with each other to see who had more. Like, for example, in the Cuban Missle Crisis, the Soviet Union put the missiles there because Cuba was close to the US, but eventually, the Soviet Union took them out, as long as the US took their own missiles out too. So technically, yes it's true.

The battle ended with the complete victory of the Greek troops and marked the end of the First Persian Invasion of Greece.

Tariff type of tax was implemented by country Q

Explanation:

Tariff is the tax levied by one republic nation on the goods brought in from another country. There are two types of tariffs which are specific and add valorem tariffs. It is best for raising the revenue of the country form imports but it results in high consumer price of the products which are imported.

When a country imports the specific goods, then the internal indigenous industries which produce the similar goods may lose their value by reducing the competition.

In olden days cross border trade was viewed to be the zero game where one can total wealth out of tariffs or other country could face total loss. There are also many instances in past which created rivalry between countries due to increase in tariffs that restricted imports.

1)how was the electoral process for choosing the president decided on at the constitutional convention?

krok68 [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

ans1-When citizens cast their ballots for president in the popular vote, they elect a slate of electors. Electors then cast the votes that decide who becomes president of the United States. Usually, electoral votes align with the popular vote in an election

ans2-Electoral votes are allocated among the States based on the Census. Every State is allocated a number of votes equal to the number of senators and representatives in its U.S. Congressional delegation—two votes for its senators in the U.S. Senate plus a number of votes equal to the number of its Congressional districts.

ans3=What do you think caused some delegates to the Constitutional Convention of 1787 to be unwilling to let the people elect the president today? They believed the responsibility was too much and they didn't trust the people. Which six states and one district have the fewest electoral votes? How many does each have?

ans4-When citizens cast their ballots for president in the popular vote, they elect a slate of electors. Electors then cast the votes that decide who becomes president of the United States. Usually, electoral votes align with the popular vote in an election.09-Feb-2021

ans5-(Reuters) - In the United States, the winner of a presidential election is determined not by a national vote but through a system called the Electoral College, which allots “electoral votes” to all 50 states and the District of Columbia based on their population.

Complicating things further, a web of laws and constitutional provisions kick in to resolve particularly close elections.

Here are some of the rules that could decide the Nov. 3 contest between President Donald Trump and his Democratic challenger Joe Biden.

How does the Electoral College work?

There are 538 electoral votes, meaning 270 are needed to win the election. In 2016, President Donald Trump lost the national popular vote to Hillary Clinton but secured 304 electoral votes to her 227.

Technically, Americans cast votes for electors, not the candidates themselves. Electors are typically party loyalists who pledge to support the candidate who gets the most votes in their state. Each elector represents one vote in the Electoral College.

The Electoral College was a compromise between the nation’s founders, who fiercely debated whether the president should be picked by Congress or through a popular vote.

All but two states use a winner-take-all approach: The candidate that wins the most votes in that state gets all of its electoral votes. Maine and Nebraska use a more complex district-based allocation system that could result in their combined nine electoral votes being split between Trump and Biden.

Can electors go rogue?

Yes.

In 2016, seven of the 538 electors cast ballots for someone other than their state’s popular vote winner, an unusually high number.

Thirty-two states and the District of Columbia have laws intended to control rogue electors, or “faithless electors.” Some provide a financial penalty for a rogue vote, while others call for the vote to be canceled and the elector replaced.

When do the electors’ votes have to be certified by?

Federal law requires that electors meet in their respective states and formally send their vote to Congress on “the first Monday after the second Wednesday in December.” This year that date is Dec. 14.

Under U.S. law, Congress will generally consider a state’s result to be “conclusive” if it is finalized six days before the electors meet. This date, known as the “safe harbor” deadline, falls on Dec. 8 this year.
