What is a burgess, and what is its significance

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Burgess originally meant a freeman of a borough (England, Wales, Ireland) or burgh (Scotland). It later came to mean an elected or unelected official of a municipality, or the representative of a borough in the English House of Commons. The term was also used in some of the American colonies. The House of Burgesses was the first elected general assembly in the colonies, paving the way for the democratic society formed during the Revolution. After a general assembly was established in Virginia, other English colonies demanded their own elected bodies of government.

How is farm workers different today than in the 1930s

Answers

Answer:

today farmer use large machinery and hire work

Explanation:

Answer:

30's:

Farming in the 1930s on the Great Plains was perhaps the most difficult occupation in the world. Farmers not only faced a global economic slow down of historic proportions, but they also faced one of the worst and longest droughts in America’s history. People around the world had no money to buy the crops and animals that farmers produced, and the drought made it almost impossible to plant and harvest the crops in the first place. As a result, many farmers lost their farms. Many moved west out of the Great Plains of the United States, looking for any kind of work they could find. Many became migrant farm laborers on the West Coast.

Today:

Today, most farmers use tractors and other motorized equipment to help with field work. Tractors, combines, plows, etc. are much larger and move much faster than horses, so farmers are able to produce more food in a shorter amount of time.

How was the Catholic Church Corrupt? Explain?

Answers

Answer:

For some time the Church had been seen as an institution plagued by internal power struggles (at one point in the late 1300s and 1400s church was ruled by three Popes simultaneously). Popes and Cardinals often lived more like kings than spiritual leaders. Popes claimed temporal (political) as well as spiritual power. They commanded armies, made political alliances and enemies, and, sometimes, even waged war. Simony (the selling of Church offices) and nepotism (favoritism based on family relationships) were rampant. Clearly, if the Pope was concentrating on these worldly issues, there wasn't as much time left for caring for the souls of the faithful. The corruption of the Church was well known, and several attempts had been made to reform the Church (notably by John Wyclif and Jan Hus), but none of these efforts successfully challenged Church practice until Martin Luther's actions in the early 1500s.

John Smith was able to locate all the gold in Jamestown.​

Answers

D i belive is the answer

Answer:

Explanation:

Smith also led the first English explorations of the Chesapeake Bay and was almost killed by a ray on the first of the two expeditions. Smith's strong leadership helped the colony survive and grow but also made him enemies within the fort.Captain John Smith reported that the first church services were held outdoors “under an awning (which was an old saile)” fastened to three or four trees. As part of a rebuilding effort following a fire that burned much of the fort in January 1608, the settlers built the first church building. He did not find gold or a route west, but he did acquire food for the colonists, learned about the natives and created highly accurate maps of the area. These maps became one of Smith's greatest accomplishments and were used by future explorers.

why does israel create so much conflict in the middle east?

Answers

Answer:

The reason why Israel is involved in so much hot water in terms of relations in the Middle East is an extremley complicated answer, so consider what I am about to say as a gross simplification. The main controvery stems back all the way to 1948, with its very founding, as the land of which Israel claimed to be their own was also inhabitated by Palestinians Arabs who saw the takeover as direct persecution.  The UN would recognize Israel as an official state in 1949. After a short-lived war in 1967, Israel managed to fend off against neighboring Arab States such as Jordan and Egypt and assert dominance in the area. While there has been attempts at peace through giving areas such as the Gaza Strip and the Western Bank to Palestinian authorities, both still claim a historical and spiritual right over the entire area. While relations have gotten better with some of the Arab States (Jordan, Bahrain, Qatar, Egypt), most of the countries in the Arab League, an organization of countries in the area, still ban all Israeli passport holders from entering their countries alongisde banning anybody with evidence of traveling to Israel to their country.

In many countries, citizens are required to serve in the military for a year or more. Do you believe the United
States should institute a similar practice? Why or why not?

Answers

Answer:

As to your question, mandatory military service (aka the draft) has been done here in the past.  And apart from a world war, it shouldn't be used.

The reason I say that is when a draft is in place, you have people who are serving who have no desire to be there.  When you have that, disciplinary problems increase, desertion and AWOL rates go up.  Commanders  then have to deal with the malcontents through various punishments, which consume an inordinate amount of time.

Further, you would have to increase the size of the Military Police to deal with the increases in disciplinary problems and the resultant crime.  It all adds up to a bad situation.

We have never fielded a more professional military prior to the all volunteer military.  These folks serve willingly and are less likely to have disciplinary problems.  They also take their craft seriously and perform at a better standard than in decades past when we did have a draft.
