Read the paragraph.
Paul Bunyan and Pecos Bill are characters in tall tales. They both have superhuman abilities and life stories told with exaggerated details. Paul Bunyan is described as the biggest and strongest lumberjack ever. In the same way, Pecos Bill is described as the best cowboy ever. Paul Bunyan supposedly created Lake Michigan by digging a water hole for his giant blue ox, while Pecos Bill supposedly dug the Rio Grande river to get water for his cattle. Characters like Paul Bunyan and Pecos Bill are often used this way in tall tales. Their superhuman abilities provide funny reasons for the existence or appearance of well-known landforms and bodies of water.

1. What led to a change in economics during and after the middle ages?
Answer:
For the continent as a whole, the population growth under way by 1500 continued over the “long” 16th century until the second or third decade of the 17th century. A recent estimate by the American historian Jan De Vries set Europe’s population (excluding Russia and the Ottoman Empire) at 61.6 million in 1500, 70.2 million in 1550, and 78.0 million in 1600; it then lapsed back to 74.6 million in 1650. The distribution of population across the continent was also shifting. Northwestern Europe (especially the Low Countries and the British Isles) witnessed the most vigorous expansion; England’s population more than doubled between 1500, when it stood at an estimated 2.6 million, and 1650, when it probably attained 5.6 million. Northwestern Europe also largely escaped the demographic downturn of the mid-17th century, which was especially pronounced in Germany, Italy, and Spain. In Germany, the Thirty Years’ War (1618–48) may have cost the country, according to different estimates, between 25 and 40 percent of its population.

Analyze and explain life in the American colonies, focusing upon reasons for colonial foundation and settlement, regional differences, and the American Colonial identity.
Answer:
New England Colonies - These colonies were founded by puritan separatists. The main reason was to flee religious persecution. Life there was controlled unders strict religious principles, and societal structure was very egalitarian.
Mid-Atlantic Colonies - These colonies were founded by private companies that obtained royal authorization (royal charters). They were characterized by a higher degree of religious diversity, with denominations such as a quakers, catholics, and presbyterians living there.
Southern Colonies - they were the last to be founded. These colonies had a warmer climate that allowed for the development of large cash crop plantations. These plantations led to the importation of thousands of African slaves. However, the backcountry of these colonies was very different, settled mainly by poor white farmers who lived off subsistance agriculture (many of them coming from Scotland and the Ulster).

3) Please give two reasons why slaves needed in the "New World"
Answer:
The following is an excerpt from Jubilee: The Emergence of African-American Culture by the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture of the New York Public Library (National Geographic Books,2003). Order it here.
"Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death!"—Patrick Henry, Speech in the Virginia Convention, March, 1775.
African peoples were captured and transported to the Americas to work. Most European colonial economies in the Americas from the 16th through the 19th century were dependent on enslaved African labor for their survival.
According to European colonial officials, the abundant land they had "discovered" in the Americas was useless without sufficient labor to exploit it. Slavery systems of labor exploitation were preferred, but neither European nor Native American sources proved adequate to the task.
The trans-Saharan slave trade had long supplied enslaved African labor to work on sugar plantations in the Mediterranean alongside white slaves from Russia and the Balkans. This same trade also sent as many as 10,000 slaves a year to serve owners in North Africa, the Middle East, and the Iberian Peninsula.

Imagine you are traveling back in time to visit an early
river valley civilization. Describe what characteristics of
the place would you find, and what social organization
you would experience.
This is a personal question that only you can answer. However, we can provide some information that can help guide your work.
River valley civilizations were the first civilizations that arose in history. They formed in the banks of rivers, as these provided fertile ground to grow crops. Therefore, it is likely that if you travelled to these valleys, you would find a society that mostly relies on agriculture. These societies included the Ancient Egyptians (Nile River), the Mesopotamians (Tigris and Euphrates Rivers), Ancient Chinese (Yellow River) and Ancient Indians (Indus River).
These societies were also organized in a very particular way. It is likely that you would find a society where most people are farmers. They would form a particular social group. Other groups would include traders, priests and the nobility. Most of these civilizations consisted of a series of villages, with one or several large urban populations.
Because the Rio Grande Valley had poor soil quality compared to other regions of Texas, Coahuiltecans
The correct answer is B) "were non-agricultural and traveled in bands to follow game."
Because the Rio Grande Valley had poor soil quality compared to other regions of Texas, Coahuiltecans "were non-agricultural and traveled in bands to follow game."
Early Coahuiltecans lived in the region of southern Texas and the northeast part of México, modern-day states of Coahuila, Nuevo León, and Tamaulipas, México. As the soil had poor quality and was not fertile to grow crops, this tribe wandered around following animal herds to hunt them and feed their families. They hunted armadillos, rabbits, snakes, deer, and Bison.

Why would the governor of Arkansas try to prevent African Americans from attending school?
Answer:
Explanation:
n September 2, 1957, Governor Orval Faubus announced that he would call in the Arkansas National Guard to prevent the African American students' entry to Central High, claiming this action was for the students' own protection.
Answer:
Governor Orval Faubus announced that he would call in the Arkansas National Guard to prevent the African American students entry to Central High, claiming this action was for the students' own protection. He enlisted the National Guard to prevent nine African American students from entering Central High School in Little Rock. After the Supreme Court ruled school segregation unconstitutional in the 1954 Brown cases, it ordered that schools be desegregated with “all deliberate speed.” But many white Americans, especially in the South, responded angrily to the Court’s rulings. They did not want public schools to be desegregated. Soon, "Massive Resistance, a campaign to block desegregation at the local, state, and national level, was underway. In late summer 1956, crowds of angry whites prevented the desegregation of public schools in Texas, Tennessee, and elsewhere. And, since the Supreme Court’s ruling applied to public but not to private schools, some counties simply closed public schools altogether. Some whites also pulled their children out of public school just to put them in a private school. In the end several of the Little Rock Nine went on to pursue their careers.

Why is it important to understand that the 9/11 attacks are not a part of the religion of Islam
Answer:
If you live in the US, it is an important lesson to know what happened in the history of the US, especially since it only happened a few years ago. It is a lesson about terrorist attacks and how afterwards, the whole country got together and helped everyone in need.
Answer:
Well they were and they weren't
Explanation:
The terrorists who committed that atrocity were Islamic radicalists, which basically means they twisted the words of Islam in a manner to serve their wants, which was to eliminate all infidels basically. However, it's important to realize that distinction between radicalized and normal Muslims, because you can't just blame all Muslims for the attacks, just the bad ones.
