Answer: Persistent

Explanation:

Jeanne Baret was the first recorded woman to circumnavigate of the globe. She joined Louis Antonie de Bougainville’s expedition as a valet and assistant to naturalist Philibert Commercon. However, the French Navy at the time prohibited women on its ship, which meant that Baret had to disguise herself as a man while on the three year journey. It is unknown when her gender was revealed, but when she eventually returned home to France, she was widely celebrated for her achievement.

A British socialite and niece of William Pitt the Younger, Lady Hester Stanhope was bred to live the life amongst Britain’s elite. However, the tenacious woman craved for a more adventurous life, thus travelling to the Middle East to live and work as an archaeologist. She became the first European woman to cross the Syrian desert, and the first to conduct modern archaeology in Ashkelon in 1815, as part of the Holy Land archaeology.

Elizabeth Cochran Seaman, otherwise known by her pseudonym, Nellie Bly, was an American journalist working for the New York World during the late 1800s. She pitched an idea to her editor to try and beat the fictional ‘world record’ set by the character, Phileas Fogg, from the famous novel, Around the world in 80 days. When the editor insisted on sending a man on the journey instead of her, she threatened to take the idea to another newspaper. Ultimately, he agreed to send her. Not only did Bly beat the record by completing her travels in 72 days, but became the first recorded female solo traveller to traverse the globe.

Explain these compromises
Marat540 [252]

The Great Compromise was a agreement made between large and small states which partly defined the representation each state would have under the United States Constitution, as well as in legislator.

The 3/5th Compromise was to count three out of every five slaves as people. Its purpose was to give the Southern states a third more seats in Congress and a third more electoral votes than if slaves ad been ignored.

The Slave Trade Compromise gave Congress power to ban slave trade, but not until 1800. The convention later voted to extend the year to 1808. A final major issue involving slavery confronted the delegates; Southern states wanted other states to return escaped slaves.
