What experience was chronicled by Maria Amparo Ruiz de Burton, a Mexicana who married an American army officer?
Answer:
The process by which the government confiscated land from Californios
Explanation:
The pastoral lifestyle of the great ranchos was giving way under the ever increasing demands of the incoming Americans who were eager for land, power and money. Legislation was passed which often favored unscrupulous newcomers. This had far-reaching effects as Hispanic families bowed to the various pressures facing them and their lands passed into American hands. Maria was determined not to lose her lands without a fight. For the next twenty-three years of her life she fought numerous legal battles, with more losses than wins. She hired the best attorneys possible and pulled strings in high places to help her claims. Her major fight was over Rancho Jamul which she claimed as the widow of Henry Burton, homesteader of the land, but Burton had died intestate, thereby creating enormous problems for Maria.
Despite all the furor, Maria continued making a variety of plans for the rancho. She ran cattle, as well as growing wheat and barley on the slopes. Castor beans were also raised, bringing sixty dollars an acre in 1874. The cattle were fed with the leaves and the beans were sold to a paint company. Even the hillsides covered with wildflowers were rented for beehives.

Merchant and craft guilds formed to provide support for their members, who shared a certain economic role. Today, in the United States, many labor and trade unions exist for the same purpose. They unite workers in specific industries so that they may together work for their mutual benefit.
Research the history of early labor unions and their relationship to the earlier guilds in Europe. Then select one of the labor or trade unions from the list below to research:
American Federation of Government Employees
American Federation of Teachers
International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers
International Union of Police Associations
National Association of Letter Carriers
Office and Professional Employees International Union
United Mine Workers of America
Writers Guild of America
Aircraft Mechanics Fraternal Association
Service Employees International Union
United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America
United Farm Workers of America
Use the internet or the library to learn more about your chosen union. Finally, combine your research with the knowledge you gained from this lesson to write a short response in which you compare and contrast your union with the medieval merchant and craft guilds.

8. Describe the role played by the English government in colonizing North America.
Answer:
The British colonization of the Americas was the history of establishment of control, settlement, and colonization of the continents of the Americas by England, Scotland and Great Britain (after 1707). Colonization efforts began in the 17th century with failed attempts by England to establish permanent colonies in the North. The first permanent British colony was established in Jamestown, Virginia in 1607. Over the next several centuries more colonies were established in North America, Central America, South America, and the Caribbean. Though most British colonies in the Americas eventually gained independence, some colonies have opted to remain under Britain's jurisdiction as British Overseas Territories.
The first documented settlement of Europeans in the Americas was established by Norse people led by Leif Erikson around 1000 AD in what is now Newfoundland, called Vinland by the Norse. Later European exploration of North America resumed with Christopher Columbus's 1492 expedition sponsored by Spain. English exploration began almost a century later. Sir Walter Raleigh established the short-lived Roanoke Colony in 1585. The 1607 settlement of the Jamestown colony grew into the Colony of Virginia and Virgineola (settled unintentionally by the shipwreck of the Virginia Company's Sea Venture in 1609) quickly renamed The Somers Isles (though the older Spanish name of Bermuda has resisted replacement). In 1620, a group of Puritans established a second permanent colony on the coast of Massachusetts. Several other English colonies were established in North America during the 17th and 18th centuries. With the authorization of a royal charter, the Hudson's Bay Company established the territory of Rupert's Land in the Hudson Bay drainage basin. The English also established or conquered several colonies in the Caribbean, including Barbados and Jamaica.

What was the effect of the Berlin Airlift?
1) East Germany and West Germany united.
2) The Soviet Union gained control over West Berlin.
3) West Berlin remained free from communist control.
4) The United States lost influence in the region.
Answer:
Option C, is the right answer.
Explanation:
The Berlin Airlift begins at the time when the Soviet Union blocked road and rail travel into West Berlin. This blockade was enacted by the Soviet Union in response to the refusal of the U.S. and Britain to provide Russia more say in the economy of Germany. To break the blockade, President Truman could not take direct military action as it could cause World War III, so he ordered a massive airlift of necessary goods into West Berlin. The successful U.S. airlift led the Soviet Union to end the blockade. The end of the blockade led Germany to become a separate and independent nation. The effect can be seen in the fact that West Berlin was regarded as the Island of Freedom throughout the Cold War.

The correct answer is D
Explanation:
After the power of the Emperor was restoed in Japan thanks to the Meiji restoration, Emperor Meiji (hence the name of the era) carried out a series of reforms that modernized Japan, and changed the country from a rural, and feudal society, to an industrial, military, and imperial power that could rival the West.
Emperor Meiji ended the feudal system, and the priviliges of the damyos and the Samurai in favor of a more egalitarian land distribution, and also in favor of a more industrial economy. He also developed the military thanks to the economic growth brought by the growth of industry. Finally, Meiji openned Japan to the rest of the world, after the country had been in almost total isolation for over three centuries. This brought new influences from the West not only in economic and military matters, but also in culture and society.

The Declaration of Independence of the United States of Americab (official title is The Unanimous Declaration of the Thirteen United States of America) a is a document drawn up by the Second Continental Congress - in the Pennsylvania State House (now Independence Hall) in Philadelphia on July 4, 1776 - which proclaimed that the Thirteen North American Coloniesc - then at war with the Kingdom of Great Britain - defined themselves as thirteen new sovereign and independent states and no longer recognized British rule; 11 instead they formed a new nation: the United States. John Adams was one of the politicians who undertook the independence process, approved on July 2 by the full Congress without opposition. A committee was in charge of writing the formal declaration, which was presented when Congress voted on it two days later.
Thomas Jefferson was the main author of the Declaration.
Adams persuaded the committee to entrust Thomas Jefferson with the task of leading the writing of the original draft of the document, 12 which Congress edited to produce the final version. The Declaration was primarily a formal explanation of why Congress severed its political ties with Britain on July 2, more than a year after the outbreak of the American Revolution. The next day Adams wrote to his wife Abigail: "The second day of July 1776 will be the most memorable time in the history of America."
Explanation:
On July 4 - after ratifying the text - Congress released the Declaration in various forms. It was initially published in John Dunlap's flyer, 14 which was widely distributed and read to the public. The original copy used for this print has been lost and may have been in the possession of Jefferson.15 The original draft with Adams and Benjamin Franklin's corrections and Jefferson's additional notes on the changes made by Congress is preserved in the Library of Congress. The best-known version of the Declaration - a signed copy popularly regarded as the official document - is on display at the National Archives in Washington DC This handwritten copy was requested by Congress on July 19 and signed on August 2.
