History

Zarrin [17]2 years ago
3 0
At ancient Greek sports festivals it was the custom to give ribbons to winning athletes. Later, at the awards' ceremony, the athlete received a wreath of leaves such as olive, laurel or wild celery leaves, depending on the festival. The identity of the athlete and the event he won are not known. Athletes are selected by their respective NOCs, who are responsible for supporting them and entering them for the Games. The IOC sends out invitation letters to all NOCs one year before the Opening Ceremony and those NOCS then submit entries for the Games who are then approved or otherwise by the IOC. They got The Olympic Order award for winning.

Nataly [62]

Answer:

Within three months after the election of 1860 seven southern states had left the Union.

Explanation:

The presidential election of 1860 led to the outbreak of Civil War. The country was divided throughout the 1850s on state rights and slavery in the new territories. In 1860, this ultimately caused a split in the dominant Democratic Party into southern and northern factions. This led to the election victory of the Republican Party candidate Abraham Lincoln without any support from the southern states.

The immediate result of Lincoln’s victory was the declaration of South Carolina, and then other southern states, to withdraw from the United States. The withdrawal statement was declared illegal by both President James Buchanan, who was still in office, and President-elect Abraham Lincoln.

Why did German nationalists like Otto von Bismarck support the colonial ideas of Carl Peters and others?
nasty-shy [4]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.

German nationalists like Otto von Bismarck support the colonial ideas of Carl Peters and others because he agreed with them in that the many different German tribes needed unification.

Carl Peters was the German politician that supported the idea of having a German unification through a league in which many German organizations could participate.

So Bismark followed through in this nationalistic idea and could unify Germany in 1871 and became its first chancellor. He ruled the unified state until 1890.
