Answer: Columbus's Voyage

By: Me.

Explanation: Christopher Columbus was an Italian explorer who stumbled upon the Americas and whose journeys marked the beginning of centuries of transatlantic colonization.  

Christopher Columbus originally wanted to find an all new water route to Asia, He was positive that he could get to Asia by sailing west on the Atlantic Ocean. This idea proved him to be very courageous due to the fact that no one has even discovered the true distance of the Ocean to the west. King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella of Spain agreed to fund his voyage because they believed that if a whole new sea route was to be discovered that landed in the Indies it would help Spain have the upper hand in the competition against Portugal.  

Throughout Columbus's voyage, Columbus began treating the natives very badly. This includes: enslavement, slaughtering & genocide, r..a..pe, and even starvation. Though Ferdinand and Isabella ordered that the natives be treated with the utmost kindness, Columbus looked past this little order and instead neglected the native's cultural history and identity by causing destruction on thousands of Native American families and individuals.  In 1495, in a large slave raid, Columbus and his men rounded up 1,500 Arawak men, women, and children, and put them in pens. They selected what they considered the best natives and loaded them onto ships back to Spain. Two hundred died en route. Disease and death was one consequence of Columbus's voyages.  Pre-Columbian America had been isolated from many infections that had swept through Asia, Europe, and much of Africa. American Indians had been spared most of the diseases common to societies that raise livestock.

When he returned to Spain in 1504 after his last voyage, Columbus was fifty-three and in poor health. Inflammation of the eyes sometimes made it impossible for him to read and he suffered agonies from what was once diagnosed as gout or arthritis but is now suspected to have been something called Reiter's syndrome.

MORE TO BE WRITTEN....   DONT MIND THE OTHER COMMENTS DOWN BELOW THAT I WROTE, JUST ADD THE WORK CITED MESSAGE.

Hope this helps! By the way, Columbus sucked.

Answer: c. The United States government passed laws intended to limit immigration

Explanation:

The United States was built on immigration however, towards the late 1800s, economic conditions were poor in some parts of the country and with people still coming into the country, the government felt a responsibility to act so that Americans would have more job opportunities.

This led to some laws being passed to limit immigration. Acts such as the ''Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882'', ''Alien Contract Labor laws of 1885 and 1887'' and the ''General Immigration Act of 1882'' ensured tried to stem the flow of immigrants.

Kay [80]

During World War II, the government argued that it should be able to waive the Fourteenth Amendment, claiming that the Constitution <em>did not apply during wartime. </em>

As a context, the 14th amendment adopted on July 9, 1868, as one of the Reconstruction Amendments, addressed citizens rights and equal protection of the laws. Since it was a later response to the American Civil War, the above rights also covered early freed slaves.

Back in the WWII, the 14th amendment was temporarily suppressed, thus disactivating its protection, back up by the claim that the Constitution did not apply.

An example of how personal liberty restrained was imposed, was the detention and relocation of the Japanese residents of the Western states, including those who were native-born citizens of the US.
