McCarthyism is a term used in reference to accusations of disloyalty, subversion or treason, without due respect to a fair legal process where the rights of the accused are respected.

It originates in an episode in the history of the United States that took place between 1950 and 1956 during which Senator Joseph McCarthy (1908-1957) unleashed an extended process of statements, unfounded accusations, denunciations, interrogations, irregular processes and blacklists against people suspected of being communists.

What effect did the Iconoclast controversy have
Grace [21]
The Iconoclast controversy caused the banning of religious icons in Christianity and the killing of supporters of the veneration of icons. The iconoclast controversy happened twice during the Byzantine Empire. This impacted the growing divergence between Western and Eastern Christian traditions, but the Western Church stood firmly with the belief that icons could be used, but the Church was still unified at the time.

Which answer best expresses what the Articles of Confederation said about taxing Americans?
PIT_PIT [208]

The correct answer is B) Only states could raise taxes, so the national government had a hard time paying its debts and expenses.

Ther Articles of Confederation was America's first constitution after breaking away from Great Britain. One of the main questions when developing this constitution was who would have the power to tax. Considering that taxation without representation was one of the causes for America's decision to leave Great Britain, it helps us to understand why this power was not given to the federal government. Rather, this power was given to state governments as citizens interacted more with their state government rather than the federal government.
