History
1 answer:
Shtirlitz [24]2 years ago
7 0

The primary purpose of settlement houses is "to provide resources and education in poor immigrant neighborhoods"

  • This idea of settlement houses started around the Progressive Era in the late 19th century. During this period, the wealthy or privileged class moved from urban areas to extremely poor or rural areas to form settlements.
  • The main objective of this action is to lift the people in the rural neighborhoods.

Hence, they carried out activities that promote enlightenment such as "providing resources and education in poor immigrant neighborhoods."

What were the events surrounding the siege and surrender of vicksburg
Goryan [66]

Answer:

Look below

Explanation:

First off, Vicksburg was one of the Union Army’s most successful campaigns of the American Civil War. The Vicksburg campaign was also one of the longest. Although General Ulysses S. Grant’s first attempt to take the city failed in the winter of 1862-63, he renewed his efforts in the spring. Admiral David Porter (1813-91) had run his flotilla past the Vicksburg defenses in early May as Grant marched his army down the west bank of the river opposite Vicksburg, crossed back to Mississippi and drove toward Jackson. After defeating a Confederate force near Jackson, Grant turned back to Vicksburg. On May 16, he defeated a force under General John C. Pemberton (1814-81) at Champion Hill. Pemberton retreated back to Vicksburg, and Grant sealed the city by the end of May. In three weeks, Grant’s men marched 180 miles, won five battles and captured some 6,000 prisoners. Grant made some attacks after bottling Vicksburg but found the Confederates well entrenched. Preparing for a long siege, his army constructed 15 miles of trenches and enclosed Pemberton’s force of 29,000 men inside the perimeter. It was only a matter of time before Grant, with 70,000 troops, captured Vicksburg. Attempts to rescue Pemberton and his force failed from both the east and west, and conditions for both military personnel and civilians deteriorated rapidly. Many residents moved to tunnels dug from the hillsides to escape the constant bombardments. Pemberton surrendered on July 4, 1863, and President Abraham Lincoln (1809-65) wrote that the Mississippi River “again goes unvexed to the sea.” The town of Vicksburg would not celebrate the Fourth of July for 81 years.

The Spanish families are very numerous; Lima according to the lowest computation, containing sixteen or eighteen thousand whites
FinnZ [79.3K]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Based on the source titled "A Voyage to South America" and my prior knowledge, I can say that the impact of colonization in the New World was that Spanish people married Native South American Indians -in this case, Inca people- and they bred a new race called "Mestizos."

These Mestizos were born from a Spanish father/mother and a Native Indian father/mother.

This also happened in Mesoamerica with the Aztec civilization people and the Spanish conquerors.

This was part of the consequences of the Spanish conquest in Mesoamerica and South America, and the later foundation of New Spain.

Let's not forget that one of the negative consequences of the Spanish presence in America was that they brought many mortal diseases such as chickenpox, malaria, smallpox, cholera, and influenza. These diseases almost wipe out 80% of Native American people.
