what are the purges? who was "purged" or punished from the soviet union, and how?
Answer:
In politics, purge refers to the removal of undesirable people from their positions. Purges are used to describe the removal of some of the ruling elites or those in charge of various state structures by monarchs or dictators. They were usually characterized by massiveness and ruthlessness. The most common motivation for carrying out them was the obsessive suspicion of the ruler and an overwhelming desire to eliminate even alleged enemies.
In the Soviet Union, purges were carried out against opposition leaders, intellectuals, officers, artists, Trotskyists, rightists and their relatives, friends and namesakes. Randomly chosen ordinary citizens also fell victim to Stalin's purges. Many of these people ended up in Gulag camps, but also dozens of prominent party members and soldiers were executed after mock trials in Moscow.

Vladivostok, a thriving city situated at the end of the Trans-Siberian Railway, was once closed to
foreigners and most Russians because of its strategic military importance. Its navy was based
there. It was opened by Mikhail Gorbachev near the end of the Cold War and during his period of
"Glasnost". Now people from different countries may visit Vladivostok freely.
Situated on Golden Horn Bay, which empties into the Sea of Japan and the Pacific Ocean, it is
still the headquarters of Russian Pacific naval operations.
According to the passage above, why was Vladivostok once closed to
foreign countries?
Answer:
Vladivostok was once closed because of its military importance, for it was the location of the Russian navy base.
Explanation:
In the given passage about Vladivostok, the speaker explicitly mentions why the place had been previously closed to outsiders and even Russians. Even though it had now been opened for the public, the same has not been the case during the period of the Cold War.
Opened by Mikhail Gorbachev, Vladivostok was a "strategic military" location for the Russian Navy and thus, closed for easy access, especially during the Cold War. But more lately, though still the "headquarters of the Russian Pacific naval operations", the base is now open for everyone to visit.

Write a one page essay of the following question:
1. Explain how the three branches of government work in our government and how does
separation of power provide limited power in our government.
Answer:
The Separation of Powers is central to the US system of government.
Explanation:
The experience of the American colonists at the hands of the British was such that they were determined to guarantee that no single branch of government would become too powerful after they won independence.
There are three parts of government, and this is how they operate, in theory.
Firstly there is the legislature which in the USA is Congress. The legislature makes laws. To try and guarantee fair representation all states have 2 senators, and in The House of Representatives representation is based on population size. The support of Congress is needed to declare war and appoint Supreme Court judges. Congressional committees in public can hold the executive to account e.g. Watergate.
Secondly there is the executive which in the US is the President and government. Unlike the UK, the executive is separate from the legislature. The President appoints his own executive, but is constrained by Congress for example in extreme circumstances can be impeached. In recent decades the powers of the executive have increased as Presidents increasingly bypass Congress, for example Nixon using Kissinger as a foreign policy advisor unaccountable to Congress.
Thirdly there is the judiciary, in the US The Supreme Court. Throughout US history the 9 judges have made historic ruling on issues such as slavery Scott Versus Sandford and abortion Roe Versus Wade. They are appointed for life so if vacancies come up during a Presidential term, this gives a President the ability to make appointments reflecting their own politics, which will influence if not determine Supreme Court rulings for decades.
Was Stalin successful in achieving the kind of state he described in this passage?
It’s a long shot but I am pretty sure it won’t be solved anyways.
He didn't succeed in achieving the state stated, no. The Soviet Union's populace was not subjected to economic exploitation, but rather to merciless dictatorship.
What are unions?The term unions refer to that a social group formed by workers in a particular trade, industry, or troupe for the purpose of bettering pay, benefits, and working conditions. Union associates work together to negotiate and enforce a contract with the administration.
Russia prospered as a result of Stalin's policies, but there was no freedom of speech for the populace. People were killed because they didn't agree with their government. It was widespread oppression. different from the kind he describes in the passage.
Therefore, By successfully in achieving this kind of state Yes he used the 5-year plan and gained power over the communist party.

Answer:
The first documented settlement of Europeans in the Americas was established by Norse people led by Leif Erikson around 1000 AD in what is now Newfoundland, called Vinland by the Norse. Later European exploration of North America resumed with Christopher Columbus's 1492 expedition sponsored by Spain. English exploration began almost a century later. Sir Walter Raleigh established the short-lived Roanoke Colony in 1585. The 1607 settlement of the Jamestown colony grew into the Colony of Virginia and Virgineola (settled unintentionally by the shipwreck of the Virginia Company's Sea Venture in 1609) quickly renamed The Somers Isles (though the older Spanish name of Bermuda has resisted replacement). In 1620, a group of Puritans established a second permanent colony on the coast of Massachusetts. Several other English colonies were established in North America during the 17th and 18th centuries. With the authorization of a royal charter, the Hudson's Bay Company established the territory of Rupert's Land in the Hudson Bay drainage basin. The English also established or conquered several colonies in the Caribbean, including Barbados and Jamaica.

The correct answer to this open question is the following.
You ask us to use the PEE method, so here it is
Point.
I agree with the idea that the rise of nationalist ideas was the most significant consequence of the War of Independence of 1857.
Evidence.
Princes, landlords, and rajas joined together in an attempt to end the British rule in India, which meant they were tired of the oppression and injustices of Great Briant ruling India.
After the fight, the rule of the British company called the East India Company ended. Another nationalistic consequence of the war was that the inconvenient Law of Lapse came to an end too.
Explanation.
After many years of the East India Company overseeing and managing the British interest in India, people decided it was time to rebel against the English presence in the Indian land. It was clear for the Indian people that the only interest of the English crown was to exploit the many raw materials and natural resources of India, not helping the Indian people.
The nationalism ideas generated under the British presence motivated people in India to start the unthinkable under those conditions.

Explanation:
Enlightenment philosophy strongly influenced Jefferson’s ideas about two seemingly opposing issues: American freedom and American slavery. Enlightenment thinkers argued that liberty was a natural human right and that reason and scientific knowledge—not the state or the church—were responsible for human progress. But Enlightenment reason also provided a rationale for slavery, based on a hierarchy of races.
