In what ways did America fulfill the American Dream for Immigrants? In what ways did it fall short?

What are three reasons and/or motivations for European exploration in the 15th and 16th centuries?
Answer: The aim to establish a religion, a goal of opening new trading routes, and an aim to uncover valuable items such as gold.
Explanation:
One of the main motivations for exploration from European countries during this time period was in fact to open up new trade routes. Back then they did not have many of the luxuries that we have today which allow for fast travel of goods so trading routes were pivotal to the survival and success of civilizations back then. It allowed different civilizations to meet together to barter and trade for goods that were not available in their region. These explorations also hoped to uncover gold and other fine items that could be used for royalty or as bartering tokens to increase a nations wealth. Lastly, Europeans who were vastly Christian aimed to spread their religion to other cultures who lived in other lands.

From 1924 to 1929 the Weimar Republic was much stronger than it had been just after the war. Led by Stresemann in the Reichstag, the different parties managed to work together. The extreme parties such as the Nazis gained fewer seats in the elections. The German people were better off and more content. Life had significantly improved for the average German, which included freedom of speech and expression. The Weimar Republic looked safe.

P - I agree/disagree with Wimlott’s view
E - Wimlott states that… and gives a positive/negative view about the strengths of the Weimar Republic.
E - I agree/disagree with this because
Answer:
Explanation:
It is 1929 and the misery that had aided the efforts of Weimar’s enemies in the early 20s has been relieved by five years of economic growth and rising incomes. Germany has been admitted to the League of Nations and is once more an accepted member of the international community. Certainly the bitterness at Germany's defeat in the World War I and the humiliation of the Treaty of Versailles had not been forgotten but most Germans appeared to have come to terms with the new Republic and its leaders.
Gustav Stresemann has just died. Germany has, in part, as a result of his efforts become a respected member of the international community again. Stresemann often spoke before the League of Nations. With his French and American counterparts Auguste Briand and Frank Kellog, he had helped negotiate the Paris Peace pact which bore the name of his fellow diplomats Kellog-Briand. Once again Gustav Stresemann had decided to take on the arduous job of leading a battle for a policy he felt was in his nation’s vital interest even though he was tired and ill and knew that the opposition would be stubborn and vitriolic. Stresemann was the major force in negotiating and guiding the Young Plan through a plebiscite. This plan although opposed by those on the right-wing won majority approval and further reduced Germany’s reparations payments.

What was demanded from all Americans?
Answer:The entry of the United States into World War II caused vast changes in virtually every aspect of American life. Millions of men and women entered military service and saw parts of the world they would likely never have seen otherwise. The labor demands of war industries caused millions more Americans to move--largely to the Atlantic, Pacific, and Gulf coasts where most defense plants located. When World War II ended, the United States was in better economic condition than any other country in the world. Even the 300,000 combat deaths suffered by Americans paled in comparison to any other major belligerent.
Building on the economic base left after the war, American society became more affluent in the postwar years than most Americans could have imagined in their wildest dreams before or during the war. Public policy, like the so-called GI Bill of Rights passed in 1944, provided money for veterans to attend college, to purchase homes, and to buy farms. The overall impact of such public policies was almost incalculable, but it certainly aided returning veterans to better themselves and to begin forming families and having children in unprecedented numbers.
Not all Americans participated equally in these expanding life opportunities and in the growing economic prosperity. The image and reality of overall economic prosperity--and the upward mobility it provided for many white Americans--was not lost on those who had largely been excluded from the full meaning of the American Dream, both before and after the war. As a consequence, African Americans, Hispanic Americans, and American women became more aggressive in trying to win their full freedoms and civil rights as guaranteed by the Declaration of Independence and U.S. Constitution during the postwar era.
The postwar world also presented Americans with a number of problems and issues. Flushed with their success against Germany and Japan in 1945, most Americans initially viewed their place in the postwar world with optimism and confidence. But within two years of the end of the war, new challenges and perceived threats had arisen to erode that confidence. By 1948, a new form of international tension had emerged--Cold War--between the United States and its allies and the Soviet Union and its allies. In the next 20 years, the Cold War spawned many tensions between the two superpowers abroad and fears of Communist subversion gripped domestic politics at home.
In the twenty years following 1945, there was a broad political consensus concerning the Cold War and anti-Communism. Usually , there was bipartisan support for most US foreign policy initiatives. After the United States intervened militarily in Vietnam in the mid-1960s, however, this political consensus began to break down. By 1968, strident debate among American about the Vietnam War signified that the Cold War consensus had shattered, perhaps beyond repair.

Explanation: since i helped can i have brainlist please that would be greatly appericated :D
Answer: President Johnson intended to remove Edwin Stanton.
Explanation:
The Mandate Act is a law in the United States that came into force in 1867 and was valid until 1887. The law sought to limit the powers of the United States president to remove people from certain positions without the consent of the senate. The president thus sought to eliminate Edwin Stanton from the post of Minister of War. He did not have the Senate's support for this action, which led to the recall of President Johnson in 1868. The explanation stated that Johnson violated the law in that way.

PLZZZ!! 2-3 Sentences Describe Ottoman's rise and fall of power
Explanation:
1.The Ottoman Empire was founded in Anatolia, the location of modern-day Turkey. Originating in Söğüt (near Bursa, Turkey), the Ottoman dynasty expanded its reign early on through extensive raiding. This was enabled by the decline of the Seljuq dynasty, the previous rulers of Anatolia, who were suffering defeat from Mongol invasion.
2.There are many reasons as to why the empire was as successful as it was, but some of them include its very strong and organized military and its centralized political structure. These early, successful governments make the Ottoman Empire one of the most important in history.
