On March 25, a Saturday afternoon, there were 600 workers at the factory when a fire began in a rag bin. The manager attempted to use the fire hose to extinguish it, but was unsuccessful, as the hose was rotted and its valve was rusted shut.

Explanation:

So one person was using a rag and had wiped up oil with the rag. Without knowing it, there was an electrical wire sticking out of the wall that was poking through one of the holes in the rag bin. When the person threw the rag in the bin, It happened to land in the right spot to be touching the electrical wire. The rag started on fire and spread.

How did the mexican war lead to the civil war?

Andreas93 [3]

It did not lead to the Civil War, what led to the civil war was the war of 1812. That was when U.S.A recognized that it needed to become stronger, and slaves were transported to the United States and put in the working class under bad conditions. Child labor and prejudice began there as well.

torisob [31]

In The Odyssey, Odysseus’ greatest strength is his trust and his compassion to his men. Though he trusted and is compassionate to his men, this will only become his strength if his men follow his orders. This same strength became his weakness when his men didn’t follow his instructions as he is also seen as a boastful person.
