Why have many Middle Eastern nations had difficulty achieving unity since winning indepedence?

Answers

The correct answer is D) they have been beset by sectarian violence.

The other options of the question were A) they have been at war with their former colonial powers. B) the democratic governments rely on oil revenue. C) dictators have had problems transitioning to democracy

Many Middle Eastern nations had difficulty achieving unity since winning independence because they have been beset by sectarian violence.

That is exactly the case of Iraq, for instance. Once the Bush administration ordered the invasión of Iraq to capture leader Sadam Hussein, Iraq started a violent period where all the sects in the country started to confront each other and attached the US troops stationed in Bagdhad. Historians understood then, that the presence of a true dictator such as Hussein served to maintain the order in the nation, although through questionable methods.

how were African Americans were treated in the South during Reconstruction.

Answers

Answer:

During the period of Reconstruction, which lasted from 1865 to 1877, Congress passed and enforced laws that promoted civil and political rights for African Americans across the South. Most notable among the laws Congress passed were three Amendments to the US Constitution: the Thirteenth Amendment (1865) ended slavery, the Fourteenth Amendment (1868) guaranteed African Americans the rights of American citizenship, and the Fifteenth Amendment (1870) guaranteed black men the constitutional right to vote.

African Americans actively took up the rights, opportunities, and responsibilities of citizenship. During Reconstruction, seven hundred African American men served in elected public office, among them two United States Senators, and fourteen members of the United States House of Representatives. Another thirteen hundred African American men and women held appointed government jobs.

Led by Republicans in Congress, the federal government insisted on civil and political rights for African Americans in the face of fierce resistance by southern whites. Federal military occupation of the defeated Confederacy ensured African Americans' civil and political rights.

#1. True or False: Many immigrants lived in poverty once they arrived in America.

#2. Which industries had the greatest impact on westward expansion?

Answers

Answer:

#1 True

Explanation:

When immigrants arrived in America they had no sewage, overcrowding, public health issues, bad sanitation, and crime. Also there was very few building, safety or fire codes.

Answer:

1. I believe it is True. The reasoning for this is that most immigrants (from anywhere) are usually poor anyways. They hope that immigration can allow them to find work/ a job. Reasons for this may be; they are not qualified for work in their country, they are from a war-torn country that does not allow them to work, or they may just hope that immigrating to America will bring them new opportunities.

However, a small minority of immigrants may have the money to overcome poverty, however this is rarely the case.

Answer:

(3) passage of Jim Crow laws

Explanation:

Jim Crow's laws were segregationist laws implemented in the southern United States that prohibited black people from having access to any type of object than white people. As a result, black people could not use the same bathroom as white people, the same sink, the same chairs and not even the same public drinking fountains. Everything was separated between "allowed for black people" and "allowed for white people", an example of which can be seen in the figure below, where a black man drinks water from a public drinking fountain entitled "colored", indicating that that drinking fountain should be used only by black people.

Who belonged to the poorest class during the Middle Ages?

Answers

The poorest class during the Middle Ages were the peasants. Within these classes there were multiple other people within them, containing different rights and freedoms.

Freemen were peasants, except they had some rights. They were free and were not enslaved and in some cases could even own land. Many Freemen lived a pretty good life, despite being in the poorest class.

Serfs, or villeins, had no rights. Serfs did labor work in exchange for a bit of land that belonged to the tenant. They did not get any money out of this, they would just work for protection and housing.

The last people that belonged to the peasant class were the slaves. Slaves were bought and sold and used for labor, they had terrible living conditions and had no rights whatsoever.
