Some people referred to Prohibition as a "noble experiment” because it
led to people home-brewing alcohol.
was never expected to improve morals.
tried to force people to improve their morals.
had the support of upstanding citizens.

Answers

I believe the answer is "C. tried to force people to improve their morals."

Hoover called prohibition the "Noble Experiment" because the goals (keeping families together, eliminating alcohol abuse) were deemed "noble". While these goals were never met, the nickname caught on.

Some people referred to Prohibition as a "noble experiment” because it tried to force people to improve their morals. Thus, "tried to force people to improve their morals" is the correct option.

Why some people referred to Prohibition as a "noble experiment”?

The ban keeps people from taking alcohol, which is bad for their health and general well-being. As a result, enforcing this restriction immediately raises people's morality. This question relates to the law that "prohibited" individuals from taking alcohol since it was an experiment in moral improvement rather than an awareness campaign.

Alcohol prohibitionists have their roots in the religious world. Numerous religious people believed that spousal violence and neglect, among other issues, were brought on by alcohol in American society. This group believed that making alcohol illegal would make Americans behave appropriately.

Therefore, "tried to force people to improve their morals" is the correct statement.

Primary source #4: Testimony from [British] Captain Thomas Preston (provides an entirely different perspective on the events of March 5, 1770)
About 9, some of the guard came to and informed me the town inhabitants were assembling to attack the troops, that that the bells were ringing as the signal for that purpose . . . In my way there, I saw people in great commotion, and heard them use the most cruel and horrid threats against the troops . . . about 100 people passed . . . towards the custom house where the king’s money is lodged. They immediately surrounded the sentry [British soldier] posted there, and with clubs and other weapons threatened to execute their vengeance on him. I was soon informed by a townsman their intention was to carry off the soldier from his post and probably murder him . . . he assured me he heard the mob declare they would murder him. This I feared might be a prelude to their plundering [stealing] the king’s chest. I immediately sent an officer and 12 men to protect the sentry and the king’s money . . . they [the soldiers] rushed through the people and by charging their bayonets in half circles, kept them [the townspeople] at a little distance . . . the unhappy affair took place without any loading in their pieces [muskets]; nor did I ever give orders for loading them. The mob still increased and were more outrageous, striking their clubs...and calling out, come on you rascals, you bloody backs, you lobster scoundrels, fire if you dare . . . fire . . . At this time I was between the soldiers and the mob, parleying with and endeavoring all in my power to persuade them to retire peacefully, but to no purpose.

Should the United Nations have created Israel? You may conduct a brief Web quest if needed. Write your answer in an
essay of at least 100 words.

Answers

Answer:

Alright, so this is strictly a matter of opinion. Some people believe that Israel should have been created whilst others believe that Israel should have never existed at all. I personally believe the latter: The United Nations should not have created Israel. There isn't a moral case for the existence of Israel, it's simply the realization of a biblical statement.

Also, IT'S NOT THEIR LAND. That is a major reason in why many people oppose the creation of Israel. There were many Jews who lived in Palestine before 1948, and all the different cultures mingled peacefully! They had no right to just barge into the Arabs' homes and claim it as their own. That's like the Europeans coming over to America, killing off the Natives, and claiming this country to be theirs -- it's not. Because the land was stolen by Palestinians, it's simply not even fair that Israel was created. They can't use "covenant with God," as an excuse for their terrible behavior towards the native people.

Although Jews have suffered in Europe during WWII, their past suffering absolutely does not justify their long-term and brutal occupation of Palestine and its people. It's simply an issue of morality.

Explanation:

Answer:

Yes.

God's Covenant to the Jews.

God promised that he would give Israel to the Jews and keep them safe from Egyptian bondage. It is strictly their land, no matter what religion you believe in. This covenant has lasted through thousands of years and will continue to last until the end of time. No matter what man can do, God's promise will stand.

should the federal goverment have more power than the state goverment.

Answers

Answer:

Yes , Any dispute about which is more powerful -- the federal government or the states -- was settled in 1789 when the Constitution granted the federal government the right to collect taxes, regulate interstate commerce, raise an army and adjudicate legal disputes between states.States, or alliances of states, have attempted to nullify federal power, but the federal government has eventually prevailed, although in the case of Southern slavery, it took a four-year war for the federal government to do so. Beyond that, states have served as pockets of resistance or innovation, attempting to weaken federal laws, or to advance new legislation that the federal government is not yet ready to consider.

what is sovereignty? how did it affect how people thought about thier government​

Answers

Sovereignty, in political theory, the ultimate overseer, or authority, in the decision-making process of the state and in the maintenance of order. The concept of sovereignty—one of the most controversial ideas in political science and international law—is closely related to the difficult concepts of state and government and of independence and democracy. Derived from the Latin superanus through the French souveraineté, the term was originally understood to mean the equivalent of supreme power. However, its application in practice often has departed from this traditional meaning.

Why did many American settlers come to Texas​

Answers

Answer:

As early as 1803, Americans settled there. After the Mexican Revolution of 1824, the Mexican government needed settlers to protect it from foreign invasion, and they offered liberal land grants to anyone who would become citizens, accept the Catholic faith, and settle there.

Explanation:

Answer:

After Moses Austin's death in 1821, Stephen Austin won recognition of the empresario grant from the newly independent state of Mexico. Austin convinced numerous American settlers to move to Texas, and by 1825 Austin had brought the first 300 American families into the territory.

Answer:

d) Government concern with domestic problems and frontier security

Explanation:

China was a great maritime power, long before Portugal and Spain won this title. The Chinese dominated not only shipbuilding, but also shipbuilding and had a fleet of more than 200 ships and 27800 sailors and soldiers. With all this power, China began a series of exploratory trips to the Indian Ocean in the early 15th century. These explorations were very profitable, but they had to be interrupted due to the constant internal conflicts and the frequent threats of invasion that provoke the need to protect the borders.
