Sharecropping was a labor system in which one person and their family grew crops for a large landowner.  The landowner would allow them to purchase tools, fertilizer, seed, etc... on credit and when the crop was harvested, the sharecropper would receive a "share" of the crop.  Often it was not enough to pay off their credit and the cycle began again.  Often known as another form of slavery, but 2/3 of sharecroppers were white.

How did the French view Joan? How did the English view her?
kherson [118]

The French saw Joan of Arc as a heroine, a savior, a fighter and an inspiration. The English saw her as a threat and a heretic and were responsible for her death.

Explanation:

During the Hundred Years' War between France and England (1337 - 1453) Joan of Arc was an important figure who helped change the course of the war in Frances favour which in the long run enabled their victory.

She was an interesting person in history as from a young age she claimed to hear the voice of God and that he guided her in her actions and pursuits to come to the aid of the monarchy and the army to help fight in the war and have the rightful monarch on the throne. She dressed as a boy most of the time (which the English used against her as one of their charges to discredit her name) and in addition to leading the army in battle she also helped as a nurse on the battlefield. She inspired the French people and army with her determination and courage and many battles were won because of her.

The English saw her as a heretic, accused her of witchcraft, dressing as a boy and a threat to them securing a victory in the war. They captured her in 1430 and tried her. She was sentenced to death and burned alive. The English hoped this would deter the French and dampen their spirits but in fact the opposite happened. Today she is the Patron Saint of France.

The Panama Canal was completed 6 months early because
igor_vitrenko [27]
The correct answer is :The completion of the construction of the Panama Canal took place six months early because new machines and technologies were invented.
-
The preparations lasted three years and the construction of the canal began in 1907. It was a very large company. The workers began their journey at 7 in the morning and rested on Sundays. At dusk they were transported by trains to their homes. In the morning, crews of workers drilled the rock to introduce dynamite. At lunchtime, the workers rested and the dynamiters began their turn. In the afternoon, crews equipped with mechanical shovels loaded the debris into the wagons. At 5 o'clock in the afternoon most of the workers stopped working, but drilling and explosions continued.
The Americans decided to build two sets of gates: one to raise the boats up to the level of Gatun Lake - about 26 m above sea level, at the exit of the canal to the Caribbean - and another to lower them at the opposite end of the canal. These gigantic gates, built on the ground, required 3.4 million cubic meters of concrete. Its base had a thickness of 4 to 6 m and the walls, perforated like a hive to empty or fill the gates, measured almost 15 m thick at the base.
The Panama Canal cost the US government 352 million dollars - four times more than the Suez Canal - and claimed 5,609 lives, including accidents and illnesses. Even so, the cost was 23 million dollars less than budgeted and the channel was inaugurated six months earlier than expected, in August 1914.

The concept of gross national happiness has been critizied in recent years because​
VladimirAG [237]

Gross national happiness is a proportion of financial and good progress that the King of Bhutan presented during the 1970s as a choice to total national output. Instead of concentrating carefully on quantitative monetary measures, net domestic bliss considers an advancing blend of personal satisfaction factors

Gross domestic happiness bliss is abused. It covers issues with debasement and low expectations for everyday life in the entire nation, as indicated by the nation's new head administrator.
