Answer:

The circumstances surrounding an event.

Explanation:

When historians refer to the historical context of an event, they are talking about the political, cultural, social and economic environment that existed in that particular moment in time. All of these characteristics can affect the ways in which we interpret history. If we do not take these into account, we could end up misunderstanding or misinterpreting the historical events we are studying.

What similarities do you see between the United States today and the United States of the past? What issues and problems do we c
kozerog [31]
<span>I see similarities in many things that the United States used to have issues with. Many people fought for African American and Women’s rights but now it is becoming an issue again. Yes, things are much better than they were in the past, but women still are being segregated in ways that men aren’t. Segregation in many ways is still an issue in the united states, and most likely always will be because of how the past was. Something that is a similarity that is very apparent is the fact that immigration is very much still a huge part of our nation and our economic growth. Another similarity is the structure of the government. This is something that has been in place for a very long time and with only small changes has worked for us for a long time.</span>
