(pls help i'm timed)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: C.) They wanted to use the waterways to transport goods and crops to distant markets.

Explanation:

The Northwest Territory was a territory created by the US Congress in 1787, the government created the Northwest Ordinances that organized land policy and territorial government in the area. Most of the settlers preferred to choose land close to the lakes and rivers because the territory was inhabited until that moment, so if they were closer to rivers they would be able to transport goods and crops from a long distance, which would make life easier in that region.

C. Christian boys were drafted to be slaves for the sultan; they were trained and educated as soldiers and bureacrats.
D. All non-Shi'a Muslims were forced to convert to Shi'a Islam; this included all Sunni Muslims,

Answers

Answer: C. Christian boys were drafted to be slaves for the sultan; they were trained and educated as soldiers and bureacrats.

Explanation:

The devshirme system has existed since the earliest period of the rise of the Ottoman Empire. These Christian boys received a great education in every sense, and primarily in the military. That elite military formation was called the Janissaries, and they were under the sultan's direct control. Some people have made a lot of progress in their careers with the devshirme system. Thus, Mehmed Pasha Sokolović, who was taken from the Balkans to Constantinople by Devšir, became the Grand Vizier. This is the highest position in the empire after the Sultan.

C

Christian boys were drafted to be slaves for the sultan; they were trained and educated as soldiers and bureacrats.

One simple multiple choice question!! Is this right?

Answers

Answer:

They competed to dominate the slave trade.

Explanation:

One negative about the slave trade was that it tended to increase the amount of war that occurred in West Africa. The reason for this is that European (and American) slave traders did not simply go out into the African countryside and kidnap their own slaves. Instead, they bought slaves from the coastal kingdoms. Those kingdoms generally got slaves to sell through war and through raids against inland tribes. Because the slave traders wanted more slaves, the coastal kingdoms were encouraged to wage more wars and conduct more raids.

. . . Powers of the king.—The King, Louis XVI, was absolute. He ruled by the divine right theory which held that he had received his power to govern from God and was therefore responsible to God alone. He appointed all civil officials and military officers. He made and enforced the laws. He could declare war and make peace. He levied taxes and spent the people’s money as he saw fit. He controlled the expression of thought by a strict censorship of speech and press. By means of lettres de cachet (sealed letters which were really blank warrants for arrest) he could arbitrarily [without reason] imprison anyone without trial for an indefinite period. He lived in his magnificent palace at Versailles, completely oblivious to the rising tide of popular discontent [frustration]. . . .

What did the colonies of Maryland and Pennsylvania have in common?
They were both located in New England.
They were both established by Spain.
They were both governed by Calvert.
They were both places of religious tolerance.i

Answers

Answer:

They were both places of religious tolerance.

Explanation:

Lord Baltimore refers to the proprietary governor of the province of Maryland.

Lord Baltimore established the Maryland colony in 1632, in response to the discrimination against Roman Catholics living within England during the period of the European wars of religion. The English Catholics were being discriminated against greatly by the Roman Catholic church in England.

The colony of Maryland was named after the Queen Consort known as Henrietta Maria of France, who was also a devoted catholic.

Also, the colony of Pennsylvania was founded in 1681 by William Penn when he acquired (obtained) a land grant from King Charles II of England, so as to provide refuge for the Quakers based on religion tolerance.

Hence, what the colonies of Maryland and Pennsylvania had in common was that, they were both places of religious tolerance.

Read the following passage from a book by modern-day author Adam Hochschild describing King Leopold’s treatment of the Congo.

“Talk of the lazy native accompanied the entire European land grab in Africa, just as it had been used to justify the conquest of the Americas. To an American reporter Leopold once declared, ‘In dealing with a race composed of cannibals for thousands of years it is necessary to use methods which will best shake their idleness and make them realize the sanctity of work’.”

According to this passage, how did King Leopold justify his treatment of the Congolese people?

Answers

Answer:

According to King Leopold, the Congolese were an inferior race/ people and needed to be treated harshly for them to understand the importance of hard work.

Explanation:

When Europeans first began explorations in the African continent, Africa was deemed an "uncivilized" world. Thus, the need to "civilize" and change them to be 'normal' people were the work put out for the new arrivals by themselves.

In the given passage provided, King Leopold termed the people of Congo as "lazy native[s] . . . composed of cannibals". He even stressed the need for "methods which will best shake their idleness and make them realize the sanctity of work", hinting at a harsh treatment as the only means to make the native people learn. He, therefore, justifies the treatment meted out to the Congolese so as to make them learn about the sanctity and need for hard work.

Answer:

The Congolese were an inferior people who needed harsh treatment for them to learn how to work.
