Based on the excerpt, what was a major factor that led the colonists to rebel against the British government?

A. The government had failed to protect the colonists’ basic rights.
B. The government was exploiting the colonies’ natural resources.
C. The government used colonial money to benefit the monarch.
D. The government imposed unjust tax rates on rebelling colonists.

In a federal system, like that of the United States and Japan, power is divided between the central (national) government and regional (state or provincial) governments.

The Constitution allocates powers between these levels of government. In contrast, a unitary system, like in Great Britain and Canada, concentrates power solely in the national government, which can delegate limited authority to regional entities.

As of today, more countries have adopted federal systems, allowing for a distribution of power and greater autonomy at the regional level, while unitary systems have become less prevalent due to their centralization of authority.

Answer:

The correct answer is the first option.

Stained-glass windows in Gothic churches supplied observers with information about European Christian beliefs.  

Explanation:

The stained glass windows of the Gothic cathedrals generally evoke the image of Jerusalem as the kingdom of heaven and constitute the collective work of the bourgeois inhabitants of the cities of the late Middle Ages. The themes for these artistic works in glass were taken from the Old and New Testaments, from the stories of the Virgin Mary and the saints. Also often represented activities of daily life .

The comparison implies each statement is as poignant as the other:-

'time is history' - every moment of time (seconds, minutes etc) passes and we cannot reclaim it, the best we can do is reflect and as we do, our understanding grows...

hence the similarity in

'space is to geography' - again, we have no control in the understanding - what we think we understand grows bigger/wider and more confusing every time we study it.

The powers of the federal government that are specifically described in the Constitution are sometimes called 'delegated' or 'expressed powers,' but most often they are known as 'enumerated powers,' and they describe how a central government with three distinct branches can operate effectively.

The president would be selected if no candidate were able to reach the needed votes in the electoral college by  the House of Representatives, Each state gets one vote.  Hope it helps

If no candidate reaches the necessary electoral votes, the presidential selection goes to the House of Representatives, where each state has one vote, while the vice presidential selection is made by the Senate.

If no candidate is able to reach the majority of electoral votes (currently 270 out of 538), the presidential election is decided by the House of Representatives, where each state casts a single vote. In this scenario, it's important to note that the process isn't based on the number of representatives but on each state having one vote. This method was used in the historical presidential elections of 1800 and 1824.

For the vice presidential selection, it falls to the Senate to make the decision. In both cases, the contingency election process is determined by the 12th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.

Native Hawaiians and Native Americans share a history of colonization, resulting in loss of sovereignty, culture, and lands, but continue to preserve and revitalize their heritage.

A key similarity between Native Hawaiians and Native Americans on the mainland United States is their shared experience of colonization, which led to both groups losing sovereignty over their lands. For Native Americans, this involved forced relocations and broken treaties, while for Native Hawaiians, it was the illegal overthrow of the Kingdom of Hawai'i and the annexation of Hawai'i by the United States. Both groups experienced a significant loss of population, displacement, and efforts to erase or assimilate their cultures. Moreover, these indigenous populations have fought to regain rights to their land and culture, with movements advocating for recognition and autonomy. Despite these struggles, Native Hawaiians and Native Americans possess resilient communities that continue to preserve and revitalize their heritage, languages, and traditions.

b. Terraces were built so shade trees, exotic shrubs, and colorful flowers could be high up on the walls.

c. Is not correct because the Gardens were built to resemble the home town of Nabuchadnezzar’s wife, Amiyitis.

d. Metal plates were not used to reflect light to make up for the shortage of sunlight in the area, because lead plates were rather used to help preserve the brick that otherwise would have been rotten by water. There was enough sun light.  

e. Fountains, pools and waterfalls were used to cool the gardens.  

The Gardens of Babilon were amazing engineer constructions that King Nebuchadnezzar (605 BC) built for his homesick wife to resemble the gardens of her hometown. He used slaves to construct them. They consisted of terraces raised one above another resting upon hollow pillars filled with earth to allow trees of the largest size to flourish. The technology used to build the Gardens of Babilon included water irrigation system from Euphrates River which then had to be lifted far up so it could flow down through the terraces, watering each level of plants. This was a big engineering task because it had to include a chain pump with two large wheels, one above the other; on one chain buckets were hung and as the wheel was turned, the buckets dipped into the pool and picked up water. The chain then lifted them to the upper wheel, where the buckets were tipped.

Slaves powered the equipment used to move water to the top of The Hanging Gardens. This is the most likely explanation for how the water was raised to the top of the gardens.

Terraces were built so shade trees, exotic shrubs, and colorful flowers could be high up on the walls. This is necessary to support the plants that would have been grown in the gardens. The terraces would have been made of mud bricks and other materials that could withstand the weight of the plants and the soil.

If you are referring to the period of reconstruction after the Civil War, then the answer would be yes. At this time, much of the North was not only structurally stable, but economically as well due to the fact that the North had more industrial areas with which to produce goods faster, plus did not have to pay the reparations that the South did after the war. Much of the areas in the North were converted into war time factories which were able to produce things like guns and ammunition quicker than the South during the Civil War, and was just as easy to convert back to civil factories which would produce the steel needed to rebuild what was lost during the war. Along with the fact of many more opportunities were offered in the North at this time with there being an influx of work for both the urban and rural areas which meant that one could work in a factory, be a farmer, or whatever they chose to be, versus in the South where much of the work was mainly rural and only were able to offer jobs such as farming and ranching.

The influx of labor into the North during the 19th century was indeed accompanied by rapid technological innovation and infrastructure development leading to significant urbanization. Advances in industry and significant population increases in cities drove infrastructural changes. The integration of immigrant labor also resulted in cultural development.

Yes, the influx of labor into the North during the 19th century was indeed accompanied by rapid technological innovation, infrastructure development, and urbanization. This period in history, commonly known as the Industrial Revolution, saw major changes in society.

Technological advancements, such as precision machinery and the steam engine powered factories, created significant industrial growth and demand for workers. In turn, this led to increased urbanization as people moved to cities to work in factories. This mass migration of workers led to the development of more complex social structures and infrastructures in cities such as Boston, New York, and Philadelphia.

There was an important correlation between these shifts as the influx of labor led to an increase in urban population, which in turn, drove further industrialization and infrastructure development. The growth of the urban environment also led to significant cultural development as more immigrants settled in these areas, enriching the cultural fabric with their customs and traditions.

In response to the heavy influx of immigrants and rapid urbanization, cities were compelled to make substantial improvements to their infrastructures. Innovations such as electric lighting, improvements in communications, intracity transportation, and the rise of skyscrapers helped to transform urban life and accommodate the rapidly growing population.

From the 1880s to the 1920s, the number of industrial workers in the United States quadrupled, hand in hand with the population of urban centers. All these transformations (immigration, urbanization, industrialization) hence concurred to radically transform American society from primarily rural to significantly urban.

Exodusters were Southern African American migrants who moved to the Great Plains and northern border states seeking freedom and opportunity post-Reconstruction. The push factors included racial discrimination, economic hardships, and violence in the South. Despite challenges, they established self-supporting communities and contributed to the economic development of the regions they moved to.

Exodusters were African American migrants who moved from the Southern states to the Great Plains and northern border states such as Indiana after the end of Reconstruction. Around 20,000 individuals made this journey, driven by the desire for political, legal, and economic freedom that was denied to them in the post-Reconstruction South. The Exodusters demonstrated courage and determination by pooling their resources, planning their moves meticulously, and maintaining faith in a better future despite the numerous challenges they encountered.

The main push factors for the Exodusters included the resurgence of racial discrimination in the form of Jim Crow laws, the lack of economic opportunities in the South, and violence from white supremacist groups. These conditions, coupled with the diminishing prospects for African Americans following the end of Reconstruction, motivated the Exodusters to seek new lands where they hoped to live with greater dignity and autonomy. Their exodus also inspired congressional investigations and pushback from Southern whites who feared losing their labor force, as well as from Northern whites who opposed the influx of black settlers.
