The Soviet Union set up the Iron Curtain in order to -
A. Extract iron from the Ural Mountains to help support their industrial growth
B. Prevent foreign ships from delivering supplies to Soviet controlled harbors
C Serve as a buffer between the Soviet Union and its enemies
D. Training and develop future military leaders​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C.

Explanation:

The Iron Curtain served as an imaginary boundary between the Soviet Union and the West world. The term iron curtain was used by the Prime Minister Winston Chruchill in his speech and popularised thereafter.

This boundary divided the communist eastern Europe from the west. Stalin build barbed wires, ditches, and concrete walls to stop his citizen from fleeing to the Western Europe.

Therefore, the Iron Curtain served as a buffer between the Soviet Union and the West. Thus option C is correct.

In your readings this week you have read about positive and negative impacts of exploration. Exploration forever
changed the world. Exploration caused ideas to spread, new plants to be discovered (helped prevent famine; found
cures for disease), trade to increase, economies and wealth to grow, new technologies to be developed, etc. However,
exploration also led to the spread of diseases to native
populations, unfair working conditions, eradication of hundreds
of languages, loss of land from native peoples, slavery, imperialism, etc.
All decisions come with a cost. Was exploration justified? Was it worth it? Did the end (the positives of exploration)
justify the means (the negatives of exploration)?

I prefer to look at todays world and try to imagine, how would todays world look if exploration and colonization after never happened. Many goods and other stuff would not exist, Population density would be a lot higher, people would poorer, many people who changed the history of world would maybe never be borned or they would not ever have the chance to change the world. On the other hand, many languages would still be spoken and many people would have easier lifes.

What were some features of the German religion

Answers

Answer:

They were Christian, and they also have a long and rich history

Explanation:

The main religion in Germany is Christianity, with around two-thirds of the population identifying as Christian. The number that actively practices Christianity in the form of church attendance, however, is significantly lower.

Germany is known for its long and rich history, one that has put it at the forefront of European thought, politics, and art for over 1,000 years. This history has shaped a culture that combines predominantly Christian values with literature, art, philosophy, logic, reason, and, of course, a love of beer and sausages.

Why do you think the Bible emphasizes a merry heart as the way to be cheerful?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Because Bible assumed that with a merry heart, people would be able to follow God's rules and instructions. That is, to be cheerful might not be that easy to become, however, with a merry heart people would be able to believe that doing what God wants is for the greater good and the glory of God.

In short, the Bible emphasizes a merry heart as the way to be cheerful because it assumed a merry heart would always be obedient to God's will.

This is evident in Proverbs 17:22 which says, "A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones."

What would be an important thing to know about pre-contact Native North America?

Answers

Answer:

The history of American Indians before European contact is broadly divided into three major periods: the Paleo-Indian period, the Archaic period (8000–1000 b.c.), and the Woodland period (1000 b.c.–1600 a.d.). The limited evidence available about the Paleo-Indian period suggests that the first Indians in the Southeast, as elsewhere, were nomadic, hunting and defending themselves with stone tools (knives and scrapers), clubs, and spears, which were at times tipped with wellcrafted, fluted stone points. During the Archaic period, basketry, bone tools, and finer stone tools appeared. Archaic peoples also began to develop more specialized knowledge of their local environments and the animals and plants that lived there. Though they did not generally travel far beyond these familiar environments, American Indians during this period did begin to establish trade and migration routes that brought the native peoples of the Carolinas in contact with other bands and tribes. Scholars suggest that small-scale agriculture began to develop among American Indians in the Southeast around 1000 b.c., marking a slow transition to what is known as the Woodland period. During the early Woodland period, native peoples began to concentrate settlements near streams and rivers, where the rich soil allowed successful farming. This Woodland tradition took root among Indians in the Carolina region. Many Woodland people planted crops such as sunflowers, corn, pumpkins, squash, and beans and built permanent wooden homes. Nevertheless, Indians in the Woodland period still relied primarily on hunting, fishing, and gathering. Among the enormous variety of animal resources available, deer was a primary staple, providing food, clothing, blankets, and tools made of antler and bone. Fishing methods included the use of hooks, spears (sometimes poisoned), nets, traps, weirs, and dugout canoes. In most tribes, work was shared by men and women. Indian housing typically consisted of lodges made of bark or thatch, at times raised off the ground. Some Indians, including the Cherokee, also built earthen winter homes without windows. Homes were furnished with straw or cane mats, pottery, basketry, and wooden utensils. As family groups and larger bands formed around productive agricultural or hunting grounds, villages developed. Some villages were surrounded by protective palisades, and most included a council house for public gatherings. Use of the bow and arrow probably evolved during the middle and late Woodland period; the oldest examples of arrow points in North Carolina have been located near the Yadkin River in the Piedmont. Tobacco pipes of stone and clay, beads, and other ornaments made of shell and clay also came into common use. Pottery began to appear, as did a clear concern for the dead, evidenced in some regions by burial or effigy mounds and earthen enclosures. In some cases, the dead were placed in round or oval pits and buried with grave goods. The Woodland Indians of North Carolina, though scattered and in many ways diverse, shared a number of cultural traits. Tribal societies were generally organized by leaders rather than rulers, governed by consensus rather than decree, and directed by a sense of community more than by individualism. Community rituals for marking the passage of time and seasons and for personal cleanliness and purification developed along with religious beliefs about the ability of individuals to tap into the supernatural world, which was seen as full of spirits. Sometime around the middle of the Woodland period (ca. 700 a.d.), an important American Indian cultural tradition known as the Mississippian tradition took shape along the Mississippi River and its tributaries. Over time, Mississippian tribal groups began to migrate into the Southeast, including North Carolina. While Mississippian peoples had many similarities to Woodland peoples, there were also important differences. Mississippian cultures were rooted more deeply in farming than were Woodland cultures, and Mississippians developed large town sites that served as hubs for religious ceremonies and trade. These towns often included large pyramid shaped mounds topped by temples and meeting houses, and the mounds were surrounded by public grounds for games and public rituals. Individual houses, often made of wood, surrounded these public grounds, and beyond the homes were often extensive cultivated fields.

New amendments need to be added to the constitution (true or false) and why?

Answers

Answer:

A constitutional amendment is a modification of the constitution of a polity, organization or other type of entity. Amendments are often interwoven into the relevant sections of an existing constitution, directly altering the text. Conversely, they can be appended to the constitution as supplemental additions (codicils), thus changing the frame of government without altering the existing text of the document.

Most constitutions require that amendments cannot be enacted unless they have passed a special procedure that is more stringent than that required of ordinary legislation. Examples of such special procedures include supermajorities in the legislature, or direct approval by the electorate in a referendum, or even a combination of two or more different special procedures. A referendum to amend the constitution may also be triggered in some jurisdictions by popular initiative.

Australia and Ireland provide examples of constitutions requiring that all amendments are first passed by the legislature before being submitted to the people; in the case of Ireland, a simple majority of those voting at the electorate is all that is required, whereas a more complex set of criteria must be met in Australia (a majority of voters in a majority of states is also necessary). Switzerland has procedure similar to that of Australia.

The special procedures for the amendment of some constitutions have proven to be so exacting, that of proposed amendments either few (eight Amendments out of 44 proposed in Australia), or none (as in Japan) have been passed over a period of several decades. In contrast, the constitution of the U.S. state of Alabama has been amended 948 times since its adoption in 1901.

What economic relationship did the American Colonies have with England?
Select one:
a. An Open Market
b. A Laissez faire Market
c. A Captive Market
d. A Tax-and-Trade Market

Answers

Answer:

c. A Captive Market

Explanation:

A captive market can be defined as a type of market in which the consumers or potential customers are only able to buy (purchase) what is made available to them due to the limited number of competitive suppliers (wholesalers or suppliers) in the market.

This ultimately implies that, in a captive market, the choice of the consumers is very limited and as such they can only buy goods or services that are made available by the supplier. Therefore, a captive market is characterized by oligopoly or monopoly and as a result of this, the price of goods and services are generally higher with minimal choice for the consumers.

Hence, the economic relationship the American Colonies had with England is known as a captive market.

In the 16th century, the American Colonies was typically a captive market for Great Britain as a raw materials such as lumber, rice, fish, or tobacco in exchange for sugar and slaves.

What led to fighting between the Ottomans and the Safavids?​

Answers

Answer:

First of all the wars between the Ottoman and Safavid Empires were the result of the threat that the Safavids were to the Ottoman Empire and imperialism by both empires. The origins of the war lie with the establishment of the Safavid state. In 1500 Ismail led his Shia warrior sect of Azerbaijan to rebel against the Ak Koyunlu Sultanate.

Answer:

Explanation:

The source of the conflict between the Ottomans and the Safavids was religious; the Ottomans were sunni, the Safavids were shia, and both the sultan and the shah claimed to be the leader of Islam. As such, Safavid expansion and massacres of Sunni Muslims goaded the Ottomans into action against them.
