Answer:

Marius and Sulla were the first two political figures in Rome who used considerable military force to get what they wanted, and this trend continued all through the fall of the Roman Republic and into the Roman Empire. Gaius Julius Caesar, previous general and consul of Rome, played a vital role in the fall of the Roman Republic.

Answer:The Roman Imperial period followed the period of the Republic. As is true of the Imperial period, civil wars were one of the factors contributing to the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar was the last real leader of the Republic and is counted the first of the Caesars in Suetonius' biographies of the first 12 emperors, but his adoptive son Augustus (Augustus was actually a title given Octavian, but here I will refer to him as [Caesar] Augustus because that is the name by which most people know him), the second in Suetonius' series, is counted as the first of the emperors of Rome. Caesar did not mean "emperor" at this time. Between Caesar and Augustus, ruling as the first emperor, was a period of strife during which the pre-imperial Augustus fought the combined forces of his co-leader, Mark Antony, and Antony's ally, the famous Egyptian queen Cleopatra VII. When Augustus won, he added Egypt—known as Rome's breadbasket—to the territory of the Roman Empire. Thus Augustus brought an excellent source of food to the people who counted.

My role: Nurse for the Union army (a typical day) - 1862

Morning & Afternoon:

*I am stationed in the Union Armory Hospital in Washington, DC

* I am bombarded by soldiers, from 6 am, on, coming into the hospital, wounded

*Even as a seasoned nurse, I am astounded by all the blood, sometimes, and the carnage

*Sometimes, I see amputated limbs, and I feel sick

*The men are, largely, in good spirits, as they battle the enemy, the Confederate, but are they the enemy?

*Are we one nation, I often wonder?

*Even though I hate slavery, I still feel for the other side, at times

*The Union men that come in, though, are good men, and we often strike up a nice friendship

*They sacrifice so much, and I try to use my nursing skills and people skills tp help them

*I hate to see people die in front of me, with me unable to prevent them all, but we do save many lives

Night:

*I finally manage to drift away, at home, after another long, trying day

*I have seen so much blood and sadness, but also so much hope and progress

*I do love being a nurse, although tough and emotionally taxing as it is, sometimes

*I feel like I am making a difference in these mens' lives, men that are fighting for the Union

In the 1850s, what did the Democratic Party stand for, what kind of people voted for them(North,South,Poor,Rich,Urban,Rural,etc.

galben [10]

Answer:

Political Party

In the years after the Civil War, the Republican Party dominated the office of the presidency. The Party of Lincoln could boast of victory in the Civil War and encouraged supporters—many of them veterans of the US Army—to “vote as they shot.” The Republican coalition included white, Anglo-Saxon Protestants; rural northerners and westerners; and African American men. During Reconstruction, the Republican Party worked to secure civil rights for black people in the South, but the party’s commitment to racial equality waned by the late 1870s.

The Republican Party also promoted the expansion of business and infrastructure, granting railroad companies land and subsidies to expand rail lines across the continent. Economically, the party supported a strong protective tariff to shield American industry from foreign competition, and a “hard money” policy that tied the dollar to the gold standard. These policies benefited banks and business owners.

The Democratic Party

Although the Republican Party dominated the presidency during the Gilded Age, political contests throughout the era were hotly contested, and Democrats frequently took control of the House of Representatives. The Democrats championed state and local control of government, opposed the protectionist tariff, and regarded personal liberty as more important than moral reform.

The Democratic Party appealed to white southerners and northeastern city dwellers, particularly Irish and German immigrants. Democratic state governments in the South opposed civil rights for African Americans during Reconstruction and imposed segregation and Jim Crow laws afterward.

In northern cities, the Democratic Party was particularly adept at operating political machines, organizations in which party bosses distributed food and jobs to immigrants and the poor in exchange for their votes. The most famous of these was Tammany Hall in New York City, where William “Boss” Tweed ruled with an iron fist.

Know-Nothing party

Byname of American Party, U.S. political party that flourished in the 1850s. It was an outgrowth of the strong anti-immigrant and especially anti-Roman Catholic sentiment that started to manifest itself during the 1840s. A rising tide of immigrants, primarily Germans in the Midwest and Irish in the East, seemed to pose a threat to the economic and political security of native-born Protestant Americans. In 1849 the secret Order of the Star-Spangled Banner formed in New York City, and soon after lodges formed in nearly every other major American city.
