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.

Why did the strongest maratha rule in India come an end
Answer:
The empire formally existed from 1674 with the coronation of Shivaji as the Chhatrapati and ended in 1818 with the defeat of Peshwa Bajirao II at the hands of the British East India Company. The Marathas are credited to a large extent for liberating most of the Indian subcontinent from Mughal rule.
Explanation:
Apart from just fighting the battle, the Maratha troops had the responsibility to protect the non-combatants from Afghans. That was the reason why Marathas suffered heavy losses even after the battle. They could not retreat quickly as they were to protect the non-combatants who were accompanying them.
Jefferson wrote, "…That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute a new Government…" 1. Clearly describe three examples from any period of American History when Americans attempted to follow these words. I need this today please!!!
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
The three examples from any period of American History when Americans attempted to follow these words were the War of 1812, the Civil War, and World War I and II.
After the Revolutionary War when the United States became an independent nation, the country has always tried to fight for freedom and democracy. When in danger of losing those individual liberties stated in the US Constitution, US citizens had supported armed conflicts. That was the case of the War of 1812. Half of the country seceded from the Union and created the Confederate States because those Americans had a different point of view of the country they wanted. that represented the beginning of the American Civil War. Finally, the United States participated in both world wars to try to impede the expansión of German power across Europe and the imminent risk this issue represented to the US economic and political interests in the region.

Previous to the Supreme Court decision overturning the ban on sports betting, only _________ permitted such forms of gaming. Now there are estimates that ________ states will permit sports betting.
Answer:
1. Delaware, Montana, Nevada, and Oregon
2. 75%
Explanation:
Over the years in the United States, there was illegality of sport betting which means, the federal government of the United States placed ban on sport betting activities. However, there were exceptional states, that are considered to be the pioneers or the grandfather of sport betting, they include the following States : Delaware, Montana, Nevada, and Oregon.
Thus, recently, the Supreme Court of United States in May 2018, passed a ruling in which it is stated that the 1992 federal ban on sports betting in most states violated the rights of a State.
Hence, with recent development on legality of sport betting ban in the United States, by the Supreme Court, it is estimated that about 75 percent of US states have either legalized sports wagering or have introduced its legislation.
Thereofore, Previous to the Supreme Court decision overturning the ban on sports betting, only DELAWARE, MONTANA, NEVADA, and OREGON permitted such forms of gaming. Now there are estimates that 75 PERCENT states will permit sports betting.

Which issue related to mexico became controversial beginning in the 1990s?
Answer:
Illegal Immigration
Explanation:
Illegal immigration was really never a problem until the 1990's. Not because it didn't happen but because nobody really saw it as a problem until racist's started seeing it as more crime and all those dumb lies. And it's not Mexicans only that immigrated, it's also people from central and south America. All illegal immigrations are just dreams, dreams of human beings wanting better lives and a better future for them and for their family. I am very grateful and I love my grandpa SO much for that and manyyyy other reasons. He left all his life behind in Mexico when he was 13, he migrated to literally a new world all by himself thinking of his future family, his evolution, ME! And all at the age of 13! 13 years old! He worked and still works very hard because of his dream, his dream to be happy and have a happy family. I could never thank that man enough. I know that all this is way too much for a simple question in school lol but i just wanna get that message out to people, so yeah, that's the answer and my opinion and story on illegal immigration lol Have a good day XD

Identify four church abuses.
Answer:
Simony (buying your job), abuses of indulgences, lack of priestly education.
The four abuses of the Catholic Church during the Reformation are Simony, Pluralism, Nepotism, and Absenteeism.
Simony is the purchase and sale of religious offices or posts. Individuals, generally affluent or important, would pay money to attain positions in the church hierarchy. Pluralism refers to a single person having various ecclesiastical posts or responsibilities. By controlling many benefices, individuals were able to amass riches and influence.
The appointment or elevation of relatives to positions of power within the church is referred to as nepotism. This practice entailed providing family members preferential treatment, frequently at the expense of more qualified individuals. Absenteeism is the practice of church officials being absent from their assigned roles without justification.
The four abuses were important in inspiring reformers such as Martin Luther to call for changes inside the church.
