Explanation:
Europe in the early 20th century had known no great war, involving all the Continent’s major Powers, since the fall of Napoleon. Although European society had been transformed in the interim, the changes had made war more difficult rather than impossible, and the underpinnings of the long 19th-century peace had grown fragile.
Globalization
Characteristic of the pre-1914 decades was what we would now call globalization. Trade may have risen from one thirtieth to one third of world production between 1800 and 1913; between 1855 and 1914 investment flows grew 20 times. Europe accounted for nearly two thirds of global trade and even more of global investment, and from the 1890s Europe’s major currencies were fixed in value in relation to each other under the international gold standard. Hundreds of thousands of foreign-born labourers worked in the heavy industries of French Lorraine and Germany’s Ruhr. The British writer Norman Angell in his 1909 best-seller, Europe’s Optical Illusion, maintained that war between advanced modern economies was now irrational.[1] Yet British naval planners saw economic interdependence as making Germany more vulnerable, and the German General Staff considered war remained a viable option, at least if victory came quickly.
Democratization
A second 19th-century characteristic was democratization. By 1914 all the European Powers had elected lower houses of parliament, and a majority of the adult male population was enfranchised. The press was relatively free, and citizens could form parties and pressure groups. Nonetheless, in Austria-Hungary, Germany, and Russia ministers answered to monarchs rather than to a parliamentary majority, and the military chiefs were not subordinate to civilian statesmen. Moreover, as international tension mounted, public opinion polarized, more moderate and progressive tendencies being offset by nationalism and militarism. Europe’s socialist parties opposed wars of conquest and aggression but were willing to endorse a war fought for just cause and in self-defence, which in 1914 all the governments would claim to be fighting.
Military revolutions
The 19th century had also witnessed a succession of military revolutions. At sea, steel had superseded wooden hulls and steam had superseded sail. HMS Dreadnought, launched by Britain in 1906 with turbine engines and 10 12-inch guns, made all existing battleships obsolete. On land, Prussia’s combination of universal liability to conscription, forward strategic planning by a General Staff, and railway-borne mobilization helped win the wars of German unification, and was widely emulated. Breech-loading cannon with rifled steel barrels replaced smooth-bore muzzle-loaders, and infantry rifles replaced muskets. Smokeless high explosive replaced powder in bullets and shells, and the modern field gun fired up to 20 rounds per minute. Yet although on balance these developments favoured defenders over attackers, military planners concluded from the 1904-05 Russo-Japanese War that offensive tactics could still prevail, albeit at much higher cost than before.

Which of the following describes a major victory by the women's rights movement during the early 1960s? A. State legislatures ratified the Equal Rights Amendmentproviding a constitutional guarantee of equality between male and female citizens . B. Congress extended legal protections against gender discrimination by incorporating women into the Civil Rights Act of 1964. National Organization of Women was recognized as the first all-female labor union and won equal pay guarantees from many large corporations . D. President Kennedy appointed the first female justice to the Supreme Court and promised to appoint at least one additional female justice
Answer:
B
Explanation:
It was during that debate that he introduced, on February 8, 1964, the sex amendment. The amendment was a one-word addition, sex, to Title VII of the bill, which prohibited employers from discriminating on the basis of ace, color, religion, or national origin.
John F Kennedy only appointed two men to the supreme court.
The equal rights Amendment was in the 1970's and not all states have ratified it.
This was a super confusing question because of how vague the answer choices were. I mean yes women were eventually included in the civil rights act, but it didn't protect women in education. And the wage gap still existed after the equal pay guarantees.
Answer:
B. Congress extended legal protections against gender discrimination by incorporating women into the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

Many people in America are frustrated with the political partisanship, however political parties provide an invaluable service to the American voter. Identify the positive impacts political parties have in America.
the key point is American political parties are a key component of our government.
The Constitution outlines the procedures that elected officials in all three branches must go through to exercise their powers. It tells congress how to make laws, it tells the president what he/she can and cannot do, and it outlines how the courts are to function. However, it says little about how we are to elect these officials. Political Parties are the "unofficial" institutions intended to fill that gap, and connect the voters with the head honchos in Washington.
If we didn't have parties, there would be no way to connect the voter with Washington, especially in a country this large.
Political parties provide many services to the American voter. First, they run the primary elections that determine which candidate will run for office. Secondly, they provide policy ideas that help voters determine which side of an issue they want to choose. Finally, they operate in government as a coalition that works to accomplish policy goals.
