How does the common placard "Hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil" relate/apply to the Jews of Sighet when dealing with living under the threat of the Nazis up until they arrived at Auschwitz?
Answer:
This poster can be related to the view and the position of the Nazi Germans in relation to the Jews.
Explanation:
For Nazi Germany, Jews represented the evil of humanity and for that reason, it was necessary to get rid of them once and for all.
The way to get rid of evil, therefore, was not to see evil, not to hear evil, nor to speak evil. For this reason, the position of Nazi Germany was to keep Jews out of social life as much as possible, preventing them from having access to German society and then completely exterminating them in Auschwitz, preventing them from being seen, heard and spoken.

How is the Duke of Wellington able to defeat Napoleon in battle? Please elaborate on this.
Answer:
Wellington knew this ridge from another time when, twenty one years previously he had been part of another campaign where the ridge had held significance. If Wellington could hold the ridge he thought the allies could sweep Napoleon back to France. The Duke of Wellington was the greatest master of defensive tactics in Europe.
Explanation:
The Duke of Wellington, born Arthur Wellesley, rose to glorious fame fighting Napoleon in the Peninsular Campaign in 1813. He was to lead the Allied forces to victory then and was able to watch Napoleon be sent into exile on Elba in 1814. He led a strong army and must have thought it a job well done. However history was about to take a different course in the Spring of 1815 when the Duke of Wellington found himself on the battlefield at Waterloo.
Answer:
In repeated attacks, Napoleon failed to break the center of the allied center. Meanwhile, the Prussians gradually arrived and put pressure on Napoleon’s eastern flank. At 6 p.m., the French under Marshal Michel Ney managed to capture a farmhouse in the allied center and began decimating Wellington’s troops with artillery. Napoleon, however, was preoccupied with the 30,000 Prussians attacking his flank and did not release troops to aid Ney’s attack until after 7 p.m. By that time, Wellington had reorganized his defenses, and the French attack was repulsed. Fifteen minutes later, the allied army launched a general advance, and the Prussians attacked in the east, throwing the French troops into panic and then a disorganized retreat. The Prussians pursued the remnants of the French army, and Napoleon left the field. French casualties in the Battle of Waterloo were 25,000 men killed and wounded and 9,000 captured, while the allies lost about 23,000.
Napoleon returned to Paris and on June 22 abdicated in favor of his son. He decided to leave France before counterrevolutionary forces could rally against him, and on July 15 he surrendered to British protection at the port of Rochefort. He hoped to travel to the United States, but the British instead sent him to Saint Helena, a remote island in the Atlantic off the coast of Africa. Napoleon protested but had no choice but to accept the exile. With a group of followers, he lived quietly on St. Helena for six years. In May 1821, he died, most likely of stomach cancer. He was only 51 years old. In 1840, his body was returned to Paris, and a magnificent funeral was held. Napoleon’s body was conveyed through the Arc de Triomphe and entombed under the dome of the Invalides.

Describe the reasons for Oklahoma’s suburban growth in the 1960s and 70s.
(short answer)
Answer:
Responses may vary but should include some or all of the following information: Starting in 1950, the population of Oklahoma’s cities rose steadily. Oklahoma City had over 243,000 residents in 1950, surged to 368,000 in 1970, and had a growth of almost 445,000 by the 1990s. In the 1960s, Oklahoma City began to lose urban residents to suburban neighborhoods that were cheaper and allowed residents more room. Merchants within the city noticed that parking space for shoppers was reduced in comparison to the large open parking lots that suburban shopping centers offered. More residents in suburbia wanted to shop closer to home, which meant that urban businesses saw reduced activity.

List the pros and cons of isolationist policies in China and Japan. Do you believe that these policies would be more beneficial or harmful to these countries? Explain Why or why not?
List the pros and cons of isolationist policies in China and Japan:
Pros:
1. Increased focus on domestic policy.
2. Decreased need for spending on military budgets.
Cons:
1. Economy may suffer.
2. May become vulnerable to attack.
Do you believe that these policies would be more beneficial or harmful to these countries? Explain Why or why not?:
No, I believe it's harmful to these countries. No matter how well-intentioned, poorly crafted employment policies not only might annoy employees and frustrate supervisors, they also might generate negative publicity and create other risks, experts say. Some policies cause legal problems, employee turnover, bad public relations, or all of the above, particularly when they are misinterpreted or applied inconsistently. Some policies are essential, such as an Equal Employment Opportunity policy to protect against harassment and discrimination and a leave policy under the Family and Medical Leave Act (for employers with 50 or more employees). Economies may suffer and they may become vulnerable to attack.

B) european govt opposed the development of railroads
C)railroads helped promote the factory system and urbanization
D) railroads made transportation of goods less efficient
Answer: D) railroads made transportation of goods less efficient
Explanation:Cause it causing less waste or requiring less effort
The railroad is a means of transportation services in which flange-wheeled vehicles travel on two parallel steel rails, or tracks, either by identity or locomotive powering.
The correct answer is option D) railroads made transportation of goods less efficient.
The development of the railroads in the nations of the United States skyrocketed in the early 1870s. Approximately 45,000 miles of track had been constructed before 1871. Between the era of 1871 through 1900, the nation's developing railway network acquired another 170,000 miles.
The development of rail lines is responsible for most of the increase. The Pacific Railway Act, passed by Congress in 1862, ordered the establishment of a transcontinental railroad. On May 10 in the year 1869, each one of these roads was finished. By 1900, four more transcontinental railroads had been built, joining the eastern provinces to the Pacific Coast.
