What type of evidence does Roosevelt use to support the claim that the United Nations must attain unanimity on the human rights
Reika [66]

Answer:

Roosevelt uses logical evidence by explaining that, once people have seen these freedoms, they will want them for themselves.

Explanation:

Eleanor Roosevelt's 1958 speech "The Struggle for Human Rights" was given in Paris to appeal to the members of the United Nations to vote for the Declaration of Human Rights. Her speech talks about the <em>"preservation of human rights" </em>and how it is important that individual rights be given enough importance as opposed to collective rights.

In her speech, Roosevelt talks about how unanimity is a difficult task to achieve, considering the <em>"different concepts of government and human rights"</em> that each government has. But at the same time, the struggle to achieve unanimity <em>"must be firm and patient." </em>She also reiterates the importance of such unity in the face of a desire to be free.

Thus, the correct answer is the second option.

How did most Europeans view the Napoleonic era?
Marina86 [1]
I'm actually ending this unit of Napoleon in class tomorrow. 
Basically Napoleon was a dictator of France who loved to carry out conquests. During the beginning of his reign he had man victories, heck in the battle of Austerlitz he was able to beat an even large Austrian and Russian army with only the french army. I'm not sure how many people were in the armies. This battle ended in a peace treaty by Austria, Treaty of Pressburg. So you can say that the Europeans thought of him as a god, for the first handful of battles. However later on he was just a shell of his glorious past. He became too selfish and ignorant in his victories, and pursued to fight England and Prussia, at the battle of waterloo. Two of the major citis that posed a threat to his conquests. 

To answer your question, Europeans would have though of him differently during his first years of his ruling, and his last years of his ruling because of the victories and losses he had in battles to try to take over all of Europe. He was a crazy dictator.

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

There are three main reasons for European Exploration. Them being for the sake of their economy, religion and glory. They wanted to improve their economy for instance by acquiring more spices, gold, and better and faster trading routes. Also, they really believed in the need to spread their religion, Christianity. The English colonized North America for several different economic reasons. Basically, they found goods that had a market in Europe. The English that settled New England found timber that was great for building ships.  The Spanish support exploration and colonization because their motivations for colonial expansion were trade and the spread of the Christian faith through indigenous conversions. The Spanish explored areas to the north, looking for a Fountain of Youth, and landed on a peninsula on the coast of North America, which he named Florida. Spain's empire was complete and fleets of ships were carrying the plunder back to Spain.

Explanation:

The opportunity to make money was one of the primary motivators for the colonization of the New World. The Virginia Company of London established the Jamestown colony to make a profit for its investors. Europe's period of exploration and colonization was fueled largely by necessity.
