Creates a sense of security and comfort.

In the case of the US, original colonies were set up in the likeness of European cities and countries. The Spanish and French set up colonies reflecting the power of the Catholic Church and the culture found in their home countries. This was even more true in the English colonies as they did not want to interact with the Native Americans. They created settlements with names that referred back to home such as New England as a colonial region. They brought their religion, language, and families to continue their norms of home. With every immigrant group that came, ethnic neighborhoods were created to create a sense of home. This is why major US cities still have Italian, Irish, Jewish, and Chinese neighborhoods for example.

Which event best shows the destruction of the natural landscape due to the settlement of the West?

Margarita [4]

The correct answer is:

Many settlers were unable to farm the Great Plains due to the challenges of working with the land.

The Great Plains land was not good for farming since it was very dry and flat. Settlers had to learn how to farm in that soil held together by grassroots, called sod. Settlers had to break through the sod to plant crops. Since there was not a lot of wood, they used sod to build homes.

This is an excerpt from Secretary of State Marshall’s speech explaining his plan for European recovery,

givi [52]

Secretary of State Marshall suggested his plan to help rebuild European economies after World War as a way of staving off political instability and poverty conditions, which would become breeding grounds for governments that would go against freedom.

Explanation/context:

The "Marshall Plan" was named after the man who then was US Secretary of State, George C. Marshall. Officially the plan was called the European Recovery Program. Marshall announced the plan in 1947, and it went into effect in 1948. The intent was to provide aid and rebuilding to European economies after the damaging effects of World War II.

In his speech introducing the plan, Secretary Marshall presented the plan as aid for any and all nations, saying : "Our policy is not directed against any country, but against hunger, poverty, desperation and chaos. Any government that is willing to assist in recovery will find full co-operation on the part of the United States. Its purpose should be the revival of a working economy in the world so as to permit the emergence of political and social conditions in which free institutions can exist." <em>[I provided more context for the quote you had shown, to see more of his intent in the remarks.]</em>

The view in the communist-controlled Eastern bloc was that the US was trying to use such a policy to spread its influence and threaten their patterns of government under communism. So the plan ended up building allies for the US in Western Europe, while the Eastern European countries sided with the Soviet Union. So it was an example of Cold War tactics of competition between the US and the USSR, apart from the use of military force.

What was one result of the Black Plague in England?

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

The population was reduced, and working people had more power.

Explanation:

consequence of the Black Death was the raising of the real wage of England (due to the shortage of labor as a result of the reduction in population), a trait shared across Western Europe, which in general led to a real wage in 1450 that was unmatched in most countries until the 19th or 20th century.
