Answers

Answer:

1. Cortes marched up the coast of Mexico and conquered Veracruz

2. Cortes established alliances with enemies of the Aztecs

3. Moctezuma II welcomed the Spanish

4. Cortes and his men brought smallpox to Tenochtitlan

Explanation:

Cortes first arrived in the south of Mexico and had a brief encounter with the Maya.  From there he continued up the coast until he reached Veracruz where he founded the first Spanish settlement.  It was here that Cortes learned of the powerful Aztecs and about the many enemies they had among the prehispanic groups that had been conquered by them.  Cortes had very few men with him so he knew he could not defeat the powerful Aztec empire alone.  He decides to make alliances with the Tlaxcaltecans and begins his march towards Tenochtitlan, the Aztec capital.  When the Spanish finally arrive, Moctezuma welcomes them (though it's not true that he thought Cortes was the reincarnation of Quetzalcoatl, that is an incorrect interpretation).  Meanwhile, a new fleet of Spanish ships arrived in Veracruz and made their way to Tenochtitlan.  One of the men in this group was sick and began the massive smallpox epidemic that wiped out around half of the indigenous population.

China 's desire to annex Taiwan and securely cling on to its control of Tibet is direct proof of China's interventionist ambitions. Chinese government deliberately avoids ethnic minorities or other cultures in their official policies. It fosters the One China agenda of the government.

Which best describes a major challenge faced by Soviet President Boris Yeltsin in the 1990s?

expanding the military
gaining support from the West
complying with the SALT treaties
transitioning to a free-market economy

Answers

Answer:

transitioning to a free-market economy

Explaination

The Soviet economy was faltering and dissidents and internal and external critics were calling for an end to political repression and government secrecy.

Answer:

transitioning to a free-market economy

Explanation:

With the Soviet Union out of the way, Yeltsin eliminated most price controls, privatized a slew of major state assets, allowed for the ownership of private property and otherwise embraced free market principles. Under his watch, a stock exchange, commodities exchanges and private banks all came into being. But although a select few oligarchs became shockingly wealthy, many Russians lapsed deeper into poverty due to rampant inflation and the rising cost of living. Yeltsin’s Russia also struggled with the taint of being an ex-superpower and with corruption, lawlessness, decreased industrial output and falling life expectancies. Moreover, Yeltsin began treating himself to some of the perks, such as chauffeured limousines, that he had previously criticized.

As president, Yeltsin broke from his Soviet predecessors by generally supporting freedom of the press, permitting public criticism and letting Western popular culture seep into the country. He also agreed to nuclear arms reductions and brought home soldiers from Eastern Europe and the former Soviet republics. Nonetheless, he did not completely disavow military action. After surviving impeachment proceedings, Yeltsin disbanded the communist-dominated parliament in September 1993 and called for elections to a new legislature. He then resolved the ensuing standoff by ordering tanks to shell the parliamentary building. The following year Yeltsin sent troops into the breakaway republic of Chechnya, an action that left roughly 80,000 people dead—the majority of them civilians. Though the fighting ceased in August 1996, it picked back up again in 1999 and lasted most of the next decade.

Health problems, some of them caused by heavy drinking, eventually began to take their toll on Yeltsin. In 1995 alone he had at least three heart attacks. Yet he decided to run for president anyway in 1996, winning a second term and then undergoing quintuple bypass surgery. Near the end of his time in office, he survived another round of impeachment proceedings and went through a string of prime ministers. In August 1998 the ruble collapsed and Russia defaulted on its treasury bills. Soon after, the economy finally turned around with the help of rising oil prices.

Manchuria was rich in natural resources that Japan needed for industries and to make Japan wealthy.

My guess about the economic Great Depression is B !

There was less money available to assist trade since the U.S. government was removing money from circulation to achieve this purpose. Hence option C is Correct .

What was the Economic Depression ?

The US government passed the Coinage Act of 1873 in April of that year, during a period of declining silver prices that were made worse by the cessation of the German Empire's thaler coin output. This effectively forced the United States to abandon its bimetallic standard and adopt a pure gold standard for the first time.

The United States' strict monetary policy to return to the gold standard after the Civil War was the main contributor to the price depression in that country.

This law, which its opponents referred to as "the Crime of 1873" and was the subject of William Jennings Bryan'sThe 1896 Cross of Gold speech compelled the United States to reduce its money supply.

Even as new silver mines were being created in Nevada, it further depressed silver prices. This encouraged mining investment but also boosted supply at a time when demand was declining.

Ordena cronológicamente como se se presentan los periodos en historia de Grecia. Marca el número que corresponde al lugar que ocupa en la línea de tiempo. Periodo Helenístico Periodo Clásico Edad Oscura Periodo Arcaico SEAN SERIOS POR FAVOR

Answers

Answer:

1. Edad Oscura - 1100 - 800 A.C

Esta etapa esta marcada por la escasez de hallazgos arqueológicos, de ahí su nombre. También corresponde a la era cronológica en la cual tienen lugar las obras de Homero, que son semi-mitológicas.

2. Periodo Arcaico - 800 - 450 A.C

En esta etapa, la población de la Antigua Grecia crece de forma dramática, y se forman las primeras ciudades estados, o polis, como Esparta o Atenas. El final de la etapa está marcado por la segunda invasión Persa a Grecia.

3. Periodo Clásico - 450 - 323 A.C

Esta etapa está marcada por un gran desarrollo en las artes, ciencias, y política griegas. Los desarrollos culturales del período clásico influirían profundamente en Roma, y por ende, en toda la cultura occidental. Su final está marcado por la muerte de Alejandro Magno.

4. Periodo Helenístico - 323 - 31 A.C

Durante esta etapa, la influencia cultural griega llega a su máximo, ya que la cultura griega (o "helénica", de ahí el nombre) se expande por todas las regiones que habían sido conquistadas previamente por Alejandro Magno. Su final está marcado por la conquista del Egipto Ptolemaico, y el posterior nacimiento del Imperio Romano.

“But what I want you to concentrate on learning now is a skill you can always use, something you can always depend on to earn some money."

"Like horse training?"

"No. Like carpentry. Not just knowing how to nail two pieces of wood together, but how to build something fine and of quality. There'll always be a need for that. The Lord Jesus Christ Himself was a carpenter, so you know you couldn't ask for a better trade. You can use your horse training too, but carpentry is something solid and dependable, and there'll always be a need for it.”

Based on the historical setting, why does Paul’s father want him to learn a trade?

Paul’s father understands the societal limitations on Paul’s career choices.
