Analyze the imperial motives of the United States in the 1800s to the early 20th Century.
Write a sentence position paper whether you think American actions were justified or
unjustified.
Answer:the battalion of 1880
Explanation:
Answer:
the imperial motives of the United States were unjustified. I believe this for many reasons, here are a few.
The actions of the United States were unjust because the nation brought upon itself to intervene in international/other nations' affairs. At that time America also, apparently, thought of itself highly and as a better nation. I think that if one nation isn't having issues like a war or a world-threatening problem, then there is no reason to get involved. This was also because the United States government was trying to reach its' goal of earning money and establishing an empire.
Often when the United States was beginning to be very unjust was in the early 1800s. Cuba began rebelling several times against the Spanish in the 1800s but was overpowered each time, harm against the Cuban citizens horrified many Americans. "in 1898 Maine accidentally blew up killing 260 men, the Americans falsely accused the Spanish of blowing up Maine as an excuse to go to war with them." The last part in my opinion is incredibly wrong to do.
Those were a few reasons that I think made the United States unjustified. What do you think?

Explanation:
Why did American colonists want to dissolve their union with England?
Answer:
The american colonists wanted to dissolve their union with England because England was placing taxes on them so that the colonists would pay for all the war money that was used in the war. Many of these taxes were rather unfair, and also way too much to pay so the colonists got tired of this and decided that they didnt want England to tax them on most of the things they bought. Some of the taxes that were placed upon the colonists were, The Tea Act, The Intolerable Acts, The Stamp Act, The Sugar Act, and The Currency Act. These acts are some of the few Acts that were placed on the colonists by King George The Third.
After the British government raised taxes once again with, the Stamp Act of 1765, the Townshend Tariffs of 1767 and the Tea Act of 1773, the colonists asked for additional representation and equal rights, but were denied. Immediately, the colonial resistance started following the Boston Massacre in 1770 and the Boston Tea Act in 1773.
The First Continental Congress was created in September of 1774 with George Washington, Samuel Adams, Patrick Henry and John Jay present. The group met in Philadelphia, and while they did not demand independence, they did demand representation if there was to be taxation and additional rights that they did not have. The group agreed that they would meet once again in May of 1775. However, on April 19, 1775, the first shots were fired in the Revolutionary War, and the Continental Congress did more than just meet once again. During the Third Continental Congress in June of 1776, the Declaration of Independence was created and signed.

lived in social groups
made tools
hunted large animals
wore clothing
buried their dead
used metal tools

lived in social groups
made tools
hunted large animals
wore clothing
buried their dead
All of the above are evidence that suggests Neanderthals were similar to present-day humans. They lived in social groups, made tools, hunted large animals, wore clothing, and buried their dead.

What is the purpose of the Necessary and Proper Clause?
It grants the federal government implied powers.
It lists the federal government’s enumerated powers.
It makes federal laws more powerful than state laws.
It reserves certain powers for the states and the people.
Answer: It grants the federal government implied powers.
Explanation:
The official Constitution website (constitution.congress.gov) states
"[The Congress shall have Power . . . ] To make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution the foregoing Powers, and all other Powers vested by this Constitution in the Government of the United States, or in any Department or Officer thereof".
This means that the purpose of the necessary and proper clause is to give the federal government the power to do whatever it needs to do to make the country "work" and safe.
It can't be "It lists the federal government's enumerated powers" because the clause doesn't list any powers.
It can't be "It makes federal laws more powerful than state laws" because that's the supremacy clause.
It can't be "It reserves certain powers for the states and the people" because that's the 9th and 10th Amendments.
The point of the Necessary and Proper Clause is to state that Congress has the power to do anything it deems necessary for the country to survive.

Which of the following describes the importance of Abraham and Sarah to the Israelites according to ancient texts?
They were the most powerful of all Israelites.
The Israelites descended from them.
They led the Hebrews out of enslavement.
They shared their polytheistic beliefs with the Israelites.
Answer:
According to ancient texts, Abraham and Sarah are considered to be the ancestors of the Israelites. They are believed to have received a divine promise from God that their descendants would become a great nation. This promise is seen as the foundation of the covenant between God and the Israelite people. Therefore, the Israelites traced their lineage back to Abraham and Sarah and considered them to be their patriarch and matriarch. However, Abraham and Sarah did not lead the Hebrews out of enslavement, as that role is traditionally attributed to Moses. Additionally, Abraham and Sarah were monotheists, not polytheists, and did not share polytheistic beliefs with the Israelites.
