Pretend you are a poor person living on the east coast of the U.S. post Civil War, during Reconstruction and Westward Expansion.

You hear of a law that the government has passed called the Homestead Act where you can go out west and get cheap land. Given the fact that there is not a lot of upward mobility where you live (your grandpa was poor, your dad was poor, and your children will most likely be poor), would you be a settler and go out west? (Even though you now know in 2021 what happens to several Native American tribes).

Answer:

No.

Explanation:

No, I will not be a settler and go out west because there is no opportunity there for changing social status. There is very less job opportunities in the west so I prefer to stay in the old place and find a job to better by social status. There are more opportunities in the old place due to higher mobility as compared to the west. So that's why I choose to stay at the old place instead to be settler and go to west.

What ended the war of 1812?
Natasha2012 [34]

In June 1812, the United States declared war against Great Britain in reaction to three issues: the British economic blockade of France, the induction of thousands of neutral American seamen into the British Royal Navy against their will, and the British support of hostile Indian tribes along the Great Lakes frontier. A faction of Congress, made up mostly of western and southern congressmen, had been advocating the declaration of war for several years. These “War Hawks,” as they were known, hoped that war with Britain, which was preoccupied with its struggle against Napoleonic France, would result in U.S. territorial gains in Canada and British-protected Florida.

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

"Feared the use of weapons of mass destruction"

Explanation:

This was the official explanation. However, there were no real signs that Iraq had any such weapons. Based on US govt. documents detailing the sale of Iraqi oil fields and a conscious decision to make a foe of Iran, the real reasons seem to have been to control Iraq's oil and to box in Iran.
