The U.S. is often described as a two-party system. The Democrats and the Republicans are said to hold a duopoly, meaning that they share almost all the political power in the country. Several other countries have a larger number of parties. For example, Japan has at least four parties and Israel has at least twelve parties each vying for power in the elections. Please explain at least 2 ways in which the U.S. government and electoral process would change if a third party emerged and political power in the U.S. was split across three political parties instead of two.
Answer:
The United States has only two major political parties: the Democrats and the Republicans. These parties have a Duopoly, meaning that they share almost all the political power in the country.
Parties In Other Democracies
Most democratic countries have more than two parties. In Israel, for example, twelve parties or party alliances held seats in the seventeenth Knesset. Japan has several major parties, including the Liberal Democratic Party, the Democratic Party of Japan, the New Komeito, and the Japanese Communist Party.
The Electoral System
In the United States, a candidate wins the election by gaining a Plurality, or more votes than any other candidate. This is a Winner-Take-All System because there is no reward for the party or candidate that finishes second. Parties aim to be as large as possible, smoothing over differences among candidates and voters. There is no incentive to form a party that consistently gets votes but cannot win an election. As a result, two political parties usually dominate plurality electoral systems to the disadvantage of smaller third parties, just as the Democrats and the Republicans dominate the American political system. No one person or organization prevents third parties from forming, but the plurality system itself usually hinders their efforts to win votes.
The United States also has mostly Single-Member Districts, meaning that each legislative district sends only one member to the legislature. There is no benefit to finishing second. Some countries use Multiple-Member Districts, which makes it easier for minor parties to succeed because there are more members winning seats in the legislature.
The Electoral College
The Electoral College exacerbates the winner-take-all system because in all but two states, whoever wins the most popular votes wins all of the state’s electoral votes in the presidential election. The electoral rules favor a two-party system, and minor parties have a very difficult time competing in such a system. Even successful third-party candidates often fail to get a single electoral vote.
In this unit, you learned that Oklahoma experienced a great deal of change in the late
1800s and early 1900s. Many events affected the state's people—from land runs to
statehood to the Roaring Twenties and the Great Depression of the 1930s. Choose one
event from the period that you think caused the most change for Oklahoma. Why do
you think this event caused so much change? In what ways did it cause more change
than other events?
Answer:
Explanation:The dawn of the twentieth century found the region between Kansas and Texas in transition. Once set aside as a permanent home for indigenous and uprooted American Indians, almost two million acres of Indian Territory had been opened to settlement in 1889. Joined with a strip of land above the Texas Panhandle, the two areas were designated "Oklahoma Territory" by an act of Congress the following year. Subsequent additions of land surrendered by tribal governments increased the new territory until it was roughly equal in size to the diminished Indian Territory. Land was the universal attraction, but many white pioneers who rushed into Oklahoma Territory or settled in Indian Territory hoped for a fresh start in a new Eden not dominated by wealth and corporate power. Freedmen dreamed of a new beginning in a place of social justice where rights guaranteed by the Constitution would be respected. Most Native Americans, whose land was being occupied, had come to realize the futility of their opposition to the process that would soon unite the two territories into a single state. A few Indians, most wedded to tribal traditions, simply ignored a process they could not understand and refused to participate in an allotment of land they had once been promised would be theirs "forever."
The birth of the new state occurred in an era of protest and reform. Populist and Progressive currents merged to sweep reform-minded Democrats to an overwhelming victory in 1906 in the selection of delegates to a Constitutional Convention tasked with forging Indian and Oklahoma territories and the Osage Nation into a single state. The constitution drafted at the convention in Guthrie in 1906–07 was not as "radical" as Pres. Theodore Roosevelt suggested, but it did reflect its authors' belief that the will of the people, not powerful corporations, should determine state policy. A series of provisions, including a corporation commission, popular election of many state officials, initiative and referendum, preferential balloting for U.S. senators, a single term for the governor, a weak legislature, and inclusion of details in the constitution normally enacted by statute, reflected the founding fathers' conviction that corporate influence on state government should be held in check.

Although some of the Native Americans believed the Europeans caused the disease that killed half their tribe and 80% of the Europeans, de Vaca's host persuaded them not to kill what was left of the foreigners for revenge, reasoning that
A. the Europeans were too sickly to sacrifice to their gods.
B. if the foreigners had the power to cause the disease, so many of them wouldn't also have died.
C. more Europeans might show up and seek revenge against the Native Americans.
Answer: B. if the foreigners had the power to cause the disease, so many of them wouldn't also have died.
Explanation:
It has been estimated that diseases brought by the Europeans to the Americas led to the loss of 90% of Native Americans as they had no prior immunity to counteract the new diseases.
Europeans also died from those same diseases however as shown above with the death of 80% of them in this instance. De Vaca's host was able to stave off revenge killing on the Europeans by showing the Natives that Europeans were equally affected and so did not spread the disease on purpose.

Why are questions on the causes and solutions for the Great Depression controversial today
Answer:
The Great Depression was the largest economic crisis in the history of capitalism, which took place between 1929 and 1933 and affected virtually all countries and practically all sectors of the economy. It is traditionally assumed that the crisis appeared in the United States after the so-called Black Thursday on October 24, 1929, when, according to preserved information, the prices of virtually all shares fell sharply, entailing a chain of bankruptcies and debts that gradually spread to almost all countries.
The effects of the crisis were mitigated by the New Deal, a program of economic and social reforms (involving the employment of the unemployed in state-led investments) introduced by President Roosevelt; the economic doctrine of Keynesianism assuming state intervention in the economy gained popularity at that time which for many years then dominated in the theory and practice of the economy of capitalist countries.
Invention: Airplane
Inventor: The Wright Brothers
HOW IT CHANGED AMERICA
Answer:
The Wright Brothers, Orville and Wilbur, were two American inventors, creators of the first motor plane that could fly autonomously, in 1903. From this invention, modern aviation began to develop, first as a means of transport and then as an instrument of war through the air forces. Thus, this allowed the United States to develop in two ways: first, by shortening distances throughout its vast territory; and then through the evolution and modernization of its armed forces, which gave it a vast advantage over the other nations of the world.

Napoleon’s French empire was the greatest empire since the ... empire
Is it the British Empire?
Or the Roman Empire ?
thanks !
Answer:
British... look below
Explanation:
Both of the empires listed were great but the British empire was right before the French. The Roman empire was 1000+ years before. The Roman empire was similar to the French one as they both controlled much of Europe. The British empire didn't control Europe. It controlled the Americas and much of Indonesia/Asia. So it is kind of tough to say but if you are going by the amount of years between them, then its the British.
HOWEVER, if you are talking about the size and amount of power, then probably Roman. But the way this question is phrased, it seems like its talking about years (which would then be British). Sorry I made this a bit confusing lol
