Answer:
The Roman Empire provided safety and protection from outside forces due to their vast army. When the Western Empire fell, Vandals, Visigoths, and other germanic peoples started to settle the area. Many germanic kingdoms began to sprout up. Without an army to protect the poor, people began turning towards Lords (and those who had the means for an army). They entered into an agreement where peasants would work and maintain their land in exchange for protection from invaders. It was a mutual agreement. Eventually, this turned into the Middle Ages as we know it.
Abraham Lincoln said, the issues of the Lincoln-Douglas debates would be discussed long after “these poor tongues of Judge Douglas and myself shall be silent.” What were the short term and long term effects of the Lincoln-Douglas debates?
Although senators were elected by the state legislatures until 1913, Douglas and Lincoln took their arguments directly to the people. The timing of the campaign, the context of sectional animosity within which it was fought, the volatility of the slavery issue, and the instability of the party system combined to give the debates a special importance. Not long before, Douglas had defied President James Buchanan and the southern Democratic leadership when he opposed the admission of Kansas as a slave state under the controversial Lecompton constitution, a stand for which he received support from Republicans in Congress as well as their interest in his reelection. At the same time, Buchanan and the southern slave interests gave tacit (and in some instances explicit) support to Lincoln’s candidacy because of their hostility to Douglas. As a result of this strange alignment, Lincoln’s principal task was to keep Illinois Republicans from supporting Douglas by exposing the moral gulf that separated them from the senator and to win the support of radical abolitionists and former conservative Whigs. A relative newcomer to the antislavery cause (before 1854, he said, slavery had been a “minor question” with him), Lincoln used the debates to develop and strengthen the moral quality of his position.
On election day, the voters of Illinois chose members of the state legislature who in turn reelected Douglas to the Senate in January 1859. Although Lincoln lost, the Republicans received more popular votes than the Democrats, signaling an important shift in the political character of the state. Moreover, Lincoln had gained a reputation throughout the North. He was invited to campaign for Republican candidates in other states and was now mentioned as a candidate for the presidency. In winning, Douglas further alienated the Buchanan administration and the South, was soon to be stripped of his power in the Senate, and contributed to the division of the Democratic party.

Explanation:
Through their natural resources and their own inventiveness, the Phoenicians were able to provide trade items that other civilizations could not. Phoenicians had access to highly valued "cedars of Lebanon" (Phoenicia was located in modern Lebanon), they had learned how to obtain a royal purple dye named "Tyrian purple" (Tyre was a major city in Phoenicia), and they had invented a way to make valuable glass artwork. The Phoenicians also traded other items such as ivory, silver, and slaves.
describe the wave power of the December 26th 2004 tsunami

What were three advantages the North had in the Civil War?
a. It was fighting most battles on home ground.
b. It had a greater number of soldiers.
c. It had more highly skilled military leaders.
d. It had a stronger navy.
e. It had a better network of railroads.
Answer:
b. It had a larger number of soldiers.
c. It had a stronger navy.
e. It had a better network of railroads.
Explanation:
Why it is not A or C.
Most of the battles (except for a couple), were fought on the Southern home field. This allowed for easier transportation for the South (as they were fairly agriculture and had little to no up-to-date transportation), but with Northern advancement, it lead to a detriment in the destruction of their few transportation routes.
Also, many well-known military leaders resigned from the U.S. army, to fight for their home state. These include but are not limited too Stonewall Jackson, Robert E. Lee, and many others. They trained together with many of their Northern compatriots, and knew each other quite well.
