The U.S. is often described as a two-party system. The Democrats and the Republicans are said to hold a duopoly, meaning that they share almost all the political power in the country. Several other countries have a larger number of parties. For example, Japan has at least four parties and Israel has at least twelve parties each vying for power in the elections. Please explain at least 2 ways in which the U.S. government and electoral process would change if a third party emerged and political power in the U.S. was split across three political parties instead of two.
Answer:
The United States has only two major political parties: the Democrats and the Republicans. These parties have a Duopoly, meaning that they share almost all the political power in the country.
Parties In Other Democracies
Most democratic countries have more than two parties. In Israel, for example, twelve parties or party alliances held seats in the seventeenth Knesset. Japan has several major parties, including the Liberal Democratic Party, the Democratic Party of Japan, the New Komeito, and the Japanese Communist Party.
The Electoral System
In the United States, a candidate wins the election by gaining a Plurality, or more votes than any other candidate. This is a Winner-Take-All System because there is no reward for the party or candidate that finishes second. Parties aim to be as large as possible, smoothing over differences among candidates and voters. There is no incentive to form a party that consistently gets votes but cannot win an election. As a result, two political parties usually dominate plurality electoral systems to the disadvantage of smaller third parties, just as the Democrats and the Republicans dominate the American political system. No one person or organization prevents third parties from forming, but the plurality system itself usually hinders their efforts to win votes.
The United States also has mostly Single-Member Districts, meaning that each legislative district sends only one member to the legislature. There is no benefit to finishing second. Some countries use Multiple-Member Districts, which makes it easier for minor parties to succeed because there are more members winning seats in the legislature.
The Electoral College
The Electoral College exacerbates the winner-take-all system because in all but two states, whoever wins the most popular votes wins all of the state’s electoral votes in the presidential election. The electoral rules favor a two-party system, and minor parties have a very difficult time competing in such a system. Even successful third-party candidates often fail to get a single electoral vote.

on a raw, soggy day in March 1936, Dorothea Lange was driving home to Berkeley after six weeks spent photographing migrant workers in California, New Mexico and Arizona. Her staff position at the Resettlement Administration (RA), an agency set up to help tenant farmers during the Depression, was tenuous: since there was no budget for a photographer, Lange had been hired as a clerk-stenographer, and she invoiced her film and travel expenses under "clerical supplies."
As Lange drove along the empty California highway that day, she noticed a sign that said Pea-Pickers Camp. Knowing that the pea crop had frozen, she debated for 20 miles before finally turning back. After pulling into the camp's muddy lane, Lange approached a female migrant worker, requested and got permission to photograph her and shot just five exposures. Lange's field notes read in part: "I did not ask her name or her history. She told me her age, that she was 32. She said that they had been living on frozen vegetables from the surrounding fields and birds that the children killed. She had just sold the tires from her car to buy food."
Back home, Lange developed the images and, clutching the still-wet prints, told the editor of the San Francisco News that migrant workers were slowly starving to death in Nipomo, California.

Why are questions on the causes and solutions for the Great Depression controversial today
Answer:
The Great Depression was the largest economic crisis in the history of capitalism, which took place between 1929 and 1933 and affected virtually all countries and practically all sectors of the economy. It is traditionally assumed that the crisis appeared in the United States after the so-called Black Thursday on October 24, 1929, when, according to preserved information, the prices of virtually all shares fell sharply, entailing a chain of bankruptcies and debts that gradually spread to almost all countries.
The effects of the crisis were mitigated by the New Deal, a program of economic and social reforms (involving the employment of the unemployed in state-led investments) introduced by President Roosevelt; the economic doctrine of Keynesianism assuming state intervention in the economy gained popularity at that time which for many years then dominated in the theory and practice of the economy of capitalist countries.

A. the Europeans were too sickly to sacrifice to their gods.
B. if the foreigners had the power to cause the disease, so many of them wouldn't also have died.
C. more Europeans might show up and seek revenge against the Native Americans.
Answer: B. if the foreigners had the power to cause the disease, so many of them wouldn't also have died.
Explanation:
It has been estimated that diseases brought by the Europeans to the Americas led to the loss of 90% of Native Americans as they had no prior immunity to counteract the new diseases.
Europeans also died from those same diseases however as shown above with the death of 80% of them in this instance. De Vaca's host was able to stave off revenge killing on the Europeans by showing the Natives that Europeans were equally affected and so did not spread the disease on purpose.
