And remember if you don’t know the answer or don’t understand it and just want points don’t even bother to write a “ANSWER” down because it is irritating and annoying and it lastly wastes my time and has no help towards me!!!!


Also please ANSWER THE QUESTION. Any other information posted will be REPORTED if the question isn’t answered and posted a random information!!!!

Answers

Answer:

The Camps were a difficult place to live because the Japanese Americans who lived there had to endure bad food, inadequate medical care, and poorly equipped schools.

People who lived in the camps had to share bathroom and laundry facilities, and hot water was usually limited. The camps were surrounded by barbed wire and guards who were supposed to shoot those who tried to escape.

  To summarize, the camps were not overly harsh or terrible, but it was unfair to force Japanese Americans to live in them when they had done nothing wrong, and when the living conditions at the camp were inadequate.

How did slaves in Texas gain their freedom? Why were some former slaves fearful after learning of their freedom?

Answers

Answer:

Before the general emancipation of American slaves during the Civil War, many secured their own freedom through escape, self-purchase, or being freed by the slaveholder.

The history of slavery in Texas, as a colonial territory, then part of Mexico, later Republic in 1836, and U.S. state in 1845, began slowly. The use of slavery expanded in the mid-nineteenth century as White American settlers, primarily from the Southeastern United States, crossed the Sabine River and brought slaves with them. Slavery was present in Spanish America and Mexico prior to the arrival of American settlers, but it was not highly developed, and the Spanish did not rely on it for labor during their years in Spanish Texas.

help me please i'm doing 75 points for the full thing please i really need help!

Answers

Answer:

Monarchy:

Advantages:

1. Decisions are carried out on his word alone (no fighting or bickering)

2. Clear line of succession

3. Can inspire GREAT loyalty among the people, creating a strong bond to hold a nation together.

Disadvantages:

1. Varying quality of hereditary leaders (a great leader may be followed by one that is not so great)

2. Difficult for a monarch to run a modern nation (the job has become simply too big for just any one but the great monarchs to do well)

Dictatorship:

Advantages:

1. Power centralized in a single person (more efficient)

2. Complete control of the military and police; can put an end to political unrest and maintain peace and order

Disadvantages:

1.Dictators can abuse citizens who oppose his rule(Good example is Animal Farm)

2.Citizens may demand that the dictator return control to elected officials

Theocracy:

Advantages:

1. Single state-supported religion encourages political and social unity.

2. Ensures that leaders make their decisions in line with their citizens values and beliefs

Disadvantages:

1. Making sure everyone follows the teaching of just ONE religion can be hard.

2. Citizens who do not believe in the religion of the majority CAN have their rights abused, or taken away!!

Single-state Party:

Advantages:

1. Avoids bickering between different political parties.

Disadvantages:

1. Views of party members may be very different from the interest of the people as a whole leading to unrest.

2.People with different views on politics are often completely shut out of the political process.

Parliamentary Democracy:

Advantages:

1. Combines the legislative and executive branches.

2. Since the legislature and the prime minister come from the same party its easier to pass legislation.

3. Prime minister controls the executive branch, which means legislation can quickly become law.

Disadvantages:

1. Lack of separation of executive and legislative branches means the prime minister is VERY powerful.

2. Considered unstable.

Presidential Democracy:

Advantages:

1.President is directly elected by the people; which makes him more responsive to the people.

2.Separates executive and legislative powers; allows each branch to watch the other branches to prevent any abuse of power.

3. Fixed terms allows more STABLE system.

Disadvantages:

1.Almost impossible to remove a president from power before their terms end.

2. Hard to reach an agreement when presidents are NOT from the political party that CONTROLS the legislature.

3.Some presidents establish Authoritarian Regimes

These are all I know.

 Taekwondo is the representative national sport of South Korea. Other popular sports include baseball, basketball, football, and golf.

In Madagascar, the three most popular sports are moraingy, a traditional martial art with similarities to Thai boxing, petanque, in which the Malagasy have twice been world champions (1999 and 2016), and rugby union, in which they have twice reached the final of the Africa Cup.

Supreme Court & other federal court judges are nominated by the president & need to be approved by the Senate. This is an example of.....
A.checks & balances
B.separation of powers
C.precedent
D.original jurisdiction

Answers

Answer:

Checks and Balances

Explanation:

The president nominates all federal judges, who must then be approved by the Senate. The appointment of judges to lower federal courts is important because almost all federal cases end there. Through lower federal judicial appointments, a president “has the opportunity to influence the course of national affairs for a quarter of a century after he leaves office.” Once in office, federal judges can be removed only by impeachment and conviction.

Answer:

A. checks and balances

Explanation:

In this question, the actions of one branch of government (Executive) has to be "approved" by another branch (Legislative). This is an example of checks and balances, where one branch of government regulates the activity or another to ensure fairness and avoid abuse of power.
