History
1 answer:
leonid [27]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:Unrest arose during periods of unemployment and economic stress. In Pennsylvania in the 1720s, hundreds of urban and rural commoners protested when Governor William Keith (1669-1749) refused to sign the Assembly's paper currency bill, meant to pull the colony out of a steep recession.

From what part of the country overwhelmingly was andrew jackson’s base?
STatiana [176]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

This is actually a hard question to answer. It also depends on which election you are talking about. John Quincy Adams won the first round (1824) and Jackson came back and won the second round (1828) resoundingly. So I take it we are talking about the second round.

Adams took the north east.

Jackson won almost everywhere else in 1828, but his most solid report came from the frontier and the south.

C is definitely wrong. Adams won the northeast.

B is also incorrect. The north east states belonged to Adams.

The 1824 election is a really interesting election. I did not know this, but apparently in that election it was really the house of representatives that decided who the president was going to be.

Adams was the only president not to win either the popular vote or the electoral college vote and still become president. I urge you, particularly if you are an American, to look up to see how that happened. It certainly was not repeated in 1828 or any time since for that matter.

The "scramble" for lands in Africa and Asia were prompted by increasing needs for raw material and new markets bought about by t
Arada [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is C. The "scramble" for lands in Africa and Asia were prompted by increasing needs for raw material and new markets bought about by the Industrial Revolution.

Explanation:

The Scramble for Africa was the phase of the colonialization process of Africa between circa 1880 and the beginning of the First World War. During this period, a number of European powers attempted to bring as much of Africa as possible under their direct rule. Until then, the role of Europe had in many cases (but not always) been limited to establishing trading posts and less direct forms of exercising power, such as concluding treaties with local rulers. As the nineteenth century progressed, it was considered increasingly urgent to be ahead of other European powers. At the Conference of Berlin of 1885, the European countries "divided" Africa among themselves.

The economic importance was twofold: tapping new markets for their own industry and investment opportunities for their own capital, and on the other hand finding sources of cheap raw materials and labor. Most European countries had experienced strong industrialization in the second half of the 19th century, in particular the United Kingdom, Germany and Belgium. Although the own markets were usually not yet saturated, new markets were looked for. These were often not present on their own continent because other markets were protected by import duties and other restrictions.

In a paragraph, define the word “worship” and briefly explain what it means.
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

The meaning of the New Testament Greek word most often translated “worship” is “to fall down before” or “bow down before.” Worship is a state of spirit. All worship is a response to truth, and that which is truth is contained. These things should be decided based on the nature of the congregation.
