Answer:

In the late 1800s, the focus of the american federation of labor was work hours, safety, and the right to organize.

The American Federation of Labor (AFL) constituted a national federation of labor unions existing in the United States founded in Columbus, Ohio, in December 1886 by an alliance of craft unions disaffected from a national labor union known as the Knights of Labor. It was the largest union grouping in the United States for the first half of the 20th century.

What changed in the Holy Land between 550 CE and 750 CE? How might this have affected relationships between Jewish people, Roman
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

Between those years, the Holy Land went from being part of the Byzantine Empire, to being part of the Muslim Empires or Caliphates that formed since the death of Muhammad.

Explanation:

This affected relationships between people from the religions listed in the question, because while before, christians were the ruling group in the land, muslims became the rulers after their conquests.

The christians, both catholic and orthodox, saw Muslim control over the Holy Land as outrageous, because of precisely the fact that this land is considered Holy for Christians, because it is the place where Jesus was born and lived.

For this reason, from the 11th century onwards, the Pope launched a series of wars with the goal or retaking the Holy Land from Muslim control. These wars are known as the Crusades.

It is our true policy to steer clear of permanent alliances with any portion of the foreign world; so far, I mean, as we are now
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

Right choice:

(3) Alliances could draw the United States into wars.

Explanation:

Since its inception, the American republic was wary of distant foreign entanglements, especially in Europe. That was the feeling of a majority in society in different times. Those attitudes changed in the 20th century, only after WWII. In the first decade of the American government of Washington, there were debates and the temptation to side with France or Britain in their contemporary wars. Washington decided to stay neutral because he knew the US was not strong enough to fight war.
