In the late 19th century, there was also growing support for the idea that the United States had a special mission to lift up "backward" people around the world. Mainstream Protestant denominations established religious missions in Africa and Asia, and by 1890 there were 500 missions in China.

Describe the white planters in the Haitian revolution and why they wanted a revolution
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

  By the fall of 1792, French troops had succeeded in regaining control of most of the island.  But the French and the whites in the colony were becoming increasingly divided among themselves about the French Revolution.  In France, the king, Louis XVI, was overthrown in August 1792, and a new, more radical assembly, the National Convention, was elected.  When this news reached Saint Domingue, it split the white population.  The radical revolutionaries in France sent a commissioner, Sonthonax, to take charge of the island, but most whites refused to obey him.  Sonthonax began to seek support among the free coloreds, insisting that they should have the same rights as whites.  In June 1793, white forces opposed to the Revolution and the granting of rights to people of color tried to seize control of the island’s main city, Cap Français.  Outnumbered, Sonthonax made a radical move:  he called on the black in surrectionaries to attack the city, promising that slaves who fought on the side of the Revolution would be freed.  This allowed him to defeat the whites, although Cap Français was burned down in the fighting.  In August 1793, Sonthonax extended his abolition decree to cover the entire slave population.

Althea de Puech Parham, ed., My Odyssey:  The first person account of a young white man from France who fought against the slave revolt.  He gives some interesting descriptions of the black fighters.

Madison Smartt Bell, All Souls’ Rising and Master of the Crossroads:  a novel series by a contemporary American author that gives a dramatic and fairly accurate picture of the Haitian Revolution.  Bell plans a third volume carrying the story down to the achievement of Haitian independence in 1804.

what trait of civilization involves a society keeping track of food supplies, numbers of soldiers, and building projects?
ale4655 [162]
A census is what this is called. A census (depending on the type and by who is conducting it) basically counts something like the number of people in the population so that whoever is using it can get accurate results for something. Like lets say a king wanted a census of his people, animals, soldiers. He would instantly have his men count all the people in the city. They would record the amount of animals. And the same for soldiers. Then they would put all this information in a big book and keep it in the palace. It was frequently updated as people moved or died.
