Answer: Mesopotamia

Explanation:

Civilizations first appeared in Mesopotamia (what is now Iraq) and later in Egypt. Civilizations thrived in the Indus Valley by about 2500 BCE, in China by about 1500 BCE and in Central America (what is now Mexico) by about 1200 BCE. Civilizations ultimately developed on every continent except Antarctica.

The D-Day invasion in June 1944 was important to the outcome of World War II because it

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

Opened a new Allied front in the Europe

Explanation:

There was only one front after the fall of France which were the Soviet. Soon after another front was created in Italy, where Italy negotiated for peace meaning another front was created. Then the success of the D-day, landing allowed for a 3rd front to open up, which spread the German soldiers very thin.

Soviet was a de facto ally of the Entente so it cannot be the fourth one. Italy only surrendered because the war was growing unpopular in Italy and Benito was toppled from power. They also surrendered as the Entente had got a holding of Sicily so it cannot be the third one. It cannot be the second one, as I am pretty sure that the Luftwaffe would have prevented this from ever happening

Question 3: The answer is false.

Question 4: The answer is true.

Question 5: The answer is true.

Question 6: The answer is false.

Question 7: The answer is true.

Question 8: The answer is true.

Question 9: The answer is true.

Explanation:

Question 3: About 2.75 million soldiers fought in the Civil War — 2 million for the North and 750,000 for the South.

Question 4: The North produced 17 times more cotton and woolen textiles than the South, 30 times more leather goods, 20 times more pig iron, and 32 times more firearms. The North produced 3,200 firearms to every 100 produced in the South. Only about 40 percent of the Northern population was still engaged in agriculture by 1860, as compared to 84 percent of the South.

Even in the agricultural sector, Northern farmers were out-producing their southern counterparts in several important areas, as Southern agriculture remained labor intensive while northern agriculture became increasingly mechanized. By 1860, the free states had nearly twice the value of farm machinery per acre and per farm worker as did the slave states, leading to increased productivity. As a result, in 1860, the Northern states produced half of the nation's corn, four-fifths of its wheat, and seven-eighths of its oats.

Question 5: The South had much better leadership during the American Civil War than the North. Generals such as Robert E. Lee , Stonewall Jackson, and J. E. B. Stuart were well trained, skilled generals, contrasting to the ineffective generals of the North. Lincoln was so displeased with his military leaders, he fired General McClellan because he did not trust him.

Question 6: The outcome of the victory of the South could have been another Union, ruled by the Southern States. The United States of America would have another capital in Richmond. They would have kept the name of “confederation” in memory to the “civil war” and to the position of the Southern states, but being a true federal country. The industrious prosperity of the North would have been stopped and slavery would have remained in the entire United States for a long time.

Question 7: The 1862 Homestead Act accelerated settlement of U.S. western territory by allowing any American, including freed slaves, to put in a claim for up to 160 free acres of federal land. President Abraham Lincoln’s signing of the Homestead Act on May 20, 1862 granted Americans 160-acre plots of public land for the price a small filing fee. The Civil War-era act, considered one of the United States’ most important pieces of legislation, led to Western expansion and allowed citizens of all walks of life—including former slaves, women and immigrants—to become landowners.

The incentive to move and settle on western territory was open to all U.S. citizens, or intended citizens, and resulted in 4 million homestead claims, although 1.6 million deeds in 30 states were actually officially obtained. Montana, followed by North Dakota, Colorado and Nebraska had the most successful claims. Native Americans were forced from their lands and onto reservations to make way for homesteaders.

Question 8: The initial British goal was to contain revolutionary sentiment to Massachusetts. But the British redcoats suffered horrendous casualties at the Battle of Bunker Hill outside of Boston in July 1775, where 47 percent of the British redcoats were killed or wounded. In January, 1776, cannons that the patriots had captured at Fort Ticonderoga, a British post at the southern end of Lake Champlain in New York, reached Boston. The cannons enabled the patriots to fortify the high grounds south of the city. Recognizing that they could no longer hold the city, the British evacuated Boston and sailed to Canada.

The new British strategy was to capture New York, where many Loyalists lived, and use it as a base to conquer the middle colonies. In 1776, the British launched the largest sea and land offensive before the Allied invasion of North Africa in 1942, and nearly trapped Washington's army in Brooklyn. Washington's forces retreated through New Jersey into Pennsylvania.

In 1777, the British launched another offensive, designed to split New England off from the rest of the colonies. While one British army marched south from Montreal, another was to march northward from New York City. The northern army was defeated at the battle of Saratoga, 30 miles north of Albany, N.Y., and 5,000 British soldiers surrendered.

Question 9: Jefferson was a “brutal hypocrite” even when judged by the standards of his time. It is noted that “while many of his contemporaries, including George Washington, freed their slaves during and after the revolution--inspired, perhaps, by the words of the Declaration--Jefferson did not.” Jefferson also avoided opportunities to diminish slavery or advance racial equality.

How did geography affect the route of the Santa Fe Trail that William Becknell laid out?

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

The Santa Fe Trail was mostly a trading route, although it saw its share of emigrants, particularly during the California Gold Rush and the Colorado Pike's Peak Gold Rush. The track was also used as a stagecoach route, a stagecoach mail route, and a postal route for the famous Pony Express.
