Q: How was the Union able
to achieve victory in the
Civil War?

Answer: Shroud believers maintain that the stains are blood marks from the wounds of Jesus but most test results indicate paint has been used in those areas.

Explanation:

The scientists of the Shroud of Turin Research Project who released their findings in 1988, wrote that the blood stains on the shroud were made of hemoglobin and had albumin as well.

This confirms that these were indeed blood stains and not paint as suggested because both hemoglobin and albumin are substances that are present in the human blood.

As the one hundredth anniversary of the beginning of World War I approaches, one may encounter some rather strained attempts to compare the current global balance of forces to that in Europe in 1914. I recently visited several countries in south east Asia and a different comparison struck me, the similarities between now and the 1930s, weak democracies and strong dictatorships.

This comparison “jumped off the page” after a week in Bangkok, followed by several days in Hanoi - a journey from a country with weak and faltering formal democratic institutions to an apparently stable one with an authoritarian regime (bordering on a country with a considerably more brutal dictatorship, China).

In The Age of Extremes, Eric Hobsbawm argued that the conflict between capitalism and communism determined the course of the twentieth century.  This confrontation of socio-economic ideologies without doubt dominated European and global history, especially after 1945.  But another, inter-related confrontation that determined the course of the century was authoritarianism versus democracy. The capitalism-communism conflict seems but a moment of history for people in their forties and younger. However, the danger of a rising authoritarian wave is as imminent in the twenty-first century as it was in the twentieth.

In most countries of Europe in the 1930s the contest between authoritarian and democratic visions of society dominated the political struggle. The exceptions were Italy where the fascists had already established an extreme version of authoritarian rule, and Britain where a rigid class structure gave stability to superficially democratic institutions. By the middle of the decade, capitalist authoritarian regimes were clearly on the rise in Germany and much of central and eastern Europe (e.g., Hungary and Poland), as well as Portugal, with Spain soon to join the anti-democratic camp.

Indeed, in very few of the industrialised countries in the late 1930s did democracy seem the stronger trend. Among the large countries only in the United States was there an unambiguous shift towards strengthening popular participation. Ironically enough it was during the presidency of patrician Franklin D Roosevelt that trade unions asserted themselves as a major political force (which would not survive much past mid-century).

Now, well into the twenty-first century it is even more difficult to find a major country with vigorous and democratic institutions, certainly not in the United States nor in Europe. In the United States the confrontation between a well-funded right wing Republican Party and the middle-of-the road Democrat Party dominates politics, one doctrinaire and aggressive, the other muddled and vascillating. The anti-democratic trend is demonstrated by passage of laws restricting the right to vote in Republican controlled states, linked to the racist xenophobia of the Tea Party. In the White House sits a Democrat apparently unconcerned by a massively intrusive national security complex.

In Europe anti-democratic trends are if anything stronger. Britain probably has the most extensive video surveillance network in Europe (see recent articles in the Guardian), as well as legal restrictions on the right of assembly, designed to reduce public protests (as we find in Spain). In addition, the Conservative-dominated coalition government’s brutal attack on poor households receiving social support in effect legalises civil rights violations. Surveillance, attacks on the poor and the government fanning fears of immigrants combine to make a potent anti-democratic package.

On the continent pre-existing authoritarian tendencies enjoyed a quantum leap under the EU-wide austerity regime fostered by the German government under the cover of the European Commission. The unelected governments in Greece (2011-12) and Italy (2011-13) represent the most obvious and shocking examples of the authoritarian trend.  Much more serious in the long term is the EU fiscal compact (officially named the Treaty on Stability, Coordination and Governance in the Economic and Monetary Union).

This treaty, which came into effect at the beginning of 2013, severely limits the authority of national parliaments to set fiscal policy. The treaty and additional measures demanded by the German government remove fiscal policy from public control (with monetary policy in the hands of the European Central Bank and beyond national accountability). This process in which major decisions are taken away from the electorate fundamentally undermines public faith in the democratic process.

Explanation:

Authoritarian governments were able to flourish in the 1920s because democratic governments were failing especially in the late 1920s and early 1930s. On top of that socialism was spreading which scared many people and authoritarianism seemed like a better option than democracy for stopping socialism.

Authoritarian government is a political system characterized by the rejection of political plurality, the use of strong central power to preserve the political status quo, reductions in the rule of law, separation of powers, and democratic voting. Political scientists have created many typologies describing variations of authoritarian forms of government.

Authoritarian regimes may be either autocratic or oligarchic and may be based upon the rule of a party or the military. States that have a blurred boundary between democracy and authoritarianism have sometimes been characterized as "hybrid democracies", "hybrid regimes" or "competitive authoritarian" states.

Minimally defined, an authoritarian government lacks free and competitive direct elections to legislatures, free and competitive direct or indirect elections for executives, or both.

Answer:

Negritude is the literary and intellectual movement that developed in Paris among the black writers in France. This movement was a sort of open declaration and acceptance of their black or African origin and their public expression of being accepted as Black writers.

Explanation:

The term "Negritude" refers to the literary movement during the early 19th century that originated in France. This literary movement was a result of the collected group of black writers and intellectuals banding together to raise concerns and cultivate their African identity and origin.

The concept of negritude developed first in Paris among the black or African writers and intellectuals who speak French and desired to express and openly declare their African origin. It was a result of their desire to be accepted and identified as black writers, their acceptance of their culture and identity. The movement was a sort of reaction against the European colonization of Africa and the need to assert the cultural racism that the Europeans had directed against the colonies.

The correct answer is C. 1933 - 1945.

Explanation

In 1929 there was a world financial crisis that affected the great world powers like the United States. Therefore, the 1930s represented a challenge for President Franklin D. Rosevelt, who had to lead the economic reactivation after this crisis. For this reactivation, Franklin D. Roosevelt implemented the New Deal in which he included broad support for workers through laws such as The Fair Labor Standards Act of 19383 and the National Industrial Recovery Act of 1933. These policies contributed to the strengthening of unions and labor rights over the next decade. So the correct answer is C.

Answer: We are unable to use scientific methods to date these ancient wrappings

Explanation:

There are various ways an archeologist can use to date an ancient artifact or fossil and one of them is to date the wrappings the fossil was covered in using scientific methods.

One such method involves the use of microscopic analysis of the wrapping to find out how long it has been decaying for. This will show the date that these wrappings were applied because they were freshly used when first applied.

Explanation:

The North was more industrial while the South was more agricultural.

This difference played out heavily in the US Civil War - while the South was better led, constant shortages of weapons and equipment, along with blockades of ports to prevent supplies from coming in, led ultimately to the South losing the war.

Slaves from other colonies ran away to Georgia.

Being a slave, who is unable to leave the duty they are performing for an enslaver and who is treated as the enslaver's property, is both the state and the condition of being an enslaved person.

Slavery was practiced in many different ways throughout historical Africa, including debt slavery, the enslavement of prisoners of war, military slavery, slavery for prostitution, and the enslavement of criminals. Slavery was frequently used in Africa for household and legal purposes.

The  statement that explains one method the Roman Catholic Church used to unify Europe after the Roman empire collapsed is B.It brought European Christians together to combat the spread of Islam.

It should be noted that the Catholic Church unified Europe socially through the continuing masses, as well as the holding baptisms and weddings, and caring for the sick.

However the  Catholic Church unified Europe politically  through the process of acting as a unifying "leader" for Christians and it can be considered as a place people could come to for help they needed and the Church would be there, hence considering the case above it brought European Christians together to combat the spread of Islam.

Unfortunately, you did not attach the options for this question.

Without the options, we can only answer with a term that can make sense, although it could not be part of the original options.

However, trying to help, we can comment on the following.

The development of intensive agriculture triggered the first appearance of cities and the emergence of civilization. This occurred because the vast increase in food production enabled by intensive agriculture provided support for human early civilizations to be established.

That was the case of the oldest civilization on planet earth: the Sumerians. It was also the case of other ancient civilizations such as ancient Egypt, the Indus Valley Civilization, and ancient China.

The Neolithic Revolution, also known as the Agriculture Revolution, was the time in human history when humans stopped being Nomads and started to settle in one place to establish the firsts civilizations, as was the case of the Sumerians, the oldest civilization on Earth. The Sumerians settled in the middle of the Euphrates and Tigris Rivers, in the Middle East.

They developed agriculture techniques, learned to benefit from the flood of the rivers to have fertile soil and grow crops, planted seeds, domesticated animals, produce a surplus of food, and established powerful city-states such as Nippur, Eridu, Lagash, Kish, Uruk, and Ur.

Answer:

The correct answer is B. World War I.

Explanation:

A trench warfare is a war in which both sides have dug themselves opposite each other in trenches and other fortified positions, with the aim of halting the advance of the enemy, which culminates in a stalemate where neither side succeeds in breaking through the enemy lines. The best-known trench warfare is World War I.

In general, trench warfare is the result of technological advances that allow enemy soldiers to be killed faster than they can advance. For example, in World War I, repeating rifles, machine guns, and modern artillery made it possible to mow down soldiers in the open by bushes. However, as armies still moved largely on foot and horseback, they could not cross those same open battlefields fast enough to get close enough to the enemy and fire effectively at the enemy.
