Answer:
The Great White Fleet was the popular nickname for the group of United States Navy battleships which completed a journey around the globe from December 16, 1907 to February 22, 1909 by order of United States President Theodore Roosevelt. Its mission was to make friendly courtesy visits to numerous countries while displaying new U.S. naval power to the world. The hulls of these ships were painted a stark white, giving the armada its nickname.[1]
It consisted of 16 battleships divided into two squadrons, along with various escorts.[2][3] Roosevelt sought to demonstrate growing American military power and blue-water navy capability. Hoping to enforce treaties and protect overseas holdings, United States Congress designated funds to build American naval power. Beginning in the 1880s with just 90 small ships, over one-third of them wooden and therefore obsolete, the navy quickly grew to include new steel fighting vessels. Although the fleet's capital ships were already obsolete at the time of the mission's commencement, the mission was a success and influenced later American ship design.

Explanation:
From 1855 to 1890, western settlement increasingly brought Americans and American Indians into conflict with one another, especially on the plains. Analyze the causes and effects of these conflicts.
Answer:
The main cause of the Indian Wars of this period was the notion of Manifest Destiny. For decades, Americans from the east were pushing west in an effort to gain control of more land and resources. Many felt that it was their God-given right to control the continent from sea to sea. This was accelerated by the expansion of the railroad during the latter half of the nineteenth century. Sometimes valuable resources such as gold and other precious metals were discovered on native land. This encouraged more settlers and led to inevitable conflict. Land was also desired for the purposes of ranching and farming.
Explanation:
This meant that the the relations between Americans, and natives would be in a enemy context.
Answer:
During the late 1800s, Americans and the natives typically experienced tensions with regard to territory, resources, and competition among the groups. With that being said, the main cause of the Indian Wars of this period was the notion of Manifest Destiny. For decades, Americans from the east were pushing west in an effort to gain control of more land and resources. Many felt that it was their God-given right to control the continent from sea to sea. This was accelerated by the expansion of the railroad during the latter half of the nineteenth century. Sometimes valuable resources such as gold and other precious metals were discovered on native land. This encouraged more settlers and led to inevitable conflict. Land was also desired for the purposes of ranching and farming. As a result of this destructive mindset, much of Native American land was taken away not only by settlers, but by the United States federal government. Americans increasingly began to see the West as land of the United States' and, consequently, treated it as such. Eventually, natives were forced to neglect their traditional nomadic lifestyle and seldom assimilate into American culture and society.

how many women were present at the constitutional convention?
Answer:
the 55 Delegates to the Convention The delegates to the Constitutional Convention did not represent a cross-section of 1787 America. The Convention included no women, no slaves, no Native Americans or racial minorites, no laborers.
Explanation:
“But what if women indeed were mentioned? Would we have to change our interpretation of the place of women in the Constitution?”
Women were introduced, as it were, to the Constitutional Convention on June 11, in one of the early debates about representation in what would become the House of Representatives. According to James Madison’s notes, Roger Sherman of Connecticut proposed that each state’s representation “should be according to the respective numbers of free inhabitants.” Two South Carolinians, John Rutledge and Pierce Butler, immediately responded that representation should instead be based not upon population but upon each state’s material contribution to the national government. It was in this context, a debate about whether representation should be based upon population or wealth (which would include slaves), that Pennsylvania’s James Wilson, one of the most active and influential members of the convention, suggested that it be “in proportion to the whole number of white & other free Citizens and inhabitants of every age sex & condition including those bound to servitude for a term of years and three fifths of all other persons not comprehended in the foregoing description, except Indians paying taxes, in each state.”
Answer:
The Convention included no women, no slaves, no Native Americans or racial minorites, and no laborers.

''The British Empire was a force for good in India.” How far do you agree with this statement?
Answer:
uh, nowhere. They were HORRIBLE
Why not, you may ask?
- The Jallianwala Bagh Massacre
- By 1890 about 6,000 British officials ruled 250 million Indians
- Racism was also reflected in the penal code. There had never been a taboo against homosexuality in Indian culture and practice until the British Victorians introduced one.
- Britain also helped solidify and perpetuate the iniquities of the caste system, which was a horrible division of people.
- Religion became a useful means of divide and rule, with the fostering of a two-nation theory that eventually divided the country and made partition inevitable; one million were killed and 17 million displaced.
- Winston Churchill, widely heralded as one of the greatest brits was viciously racist and perpetuated hardline racism in British colonies around the world, once saying: “I hate Indians. They are a beastly people with a beastly religion . . . Let the Viceroy sit on the back of a giant elephant and trample Gandhi into the dirt.”
- Up to 35 million died unnecessarily in famines; London ate India’s bread while India starved, and in 1943 nearly four million Bengalis died. It was their own fault, according to Churchill, for “breeding like rabbits”.
and that's barely skimming the surface. The sheer number of atrocities Britain has committed in India established its legacy as being one of genocide, tyranny, cultural theft and erasure. The few positive things its presence accomplished are far outweighed by the sick acts it carried out on the Indian people.
