Use this passage to answer the following question:

The Cotton Gin
Andrea Brecheen

The cotton gin was one of the most amazing and tragic inventions of early America. The cotton gin is credited to the brilliant and creative American inventor Eli Whitney. Because Whitney's invention made cotton harvesting easier, it allowed farmers in the South to increase production. The cotton gin simplified the process of removing the cotton from the seeds, a process formerly done by hand.

As a result, Southern plantations increased their production of cotton from 750,000 bales in 1830 to 2.85 million bales just 20 years later. Because of the increase in production, the farmers in South became even more dependent on cotton for revenue. This new reliance on cotton increased the need for slavery. More slaves were needed to farm the ever expanding cotton plantations. If Whitney had known the effects his invention would have on slavery, he never would have created it.

Which of the following would best support the author's claim that more slaves were needed after the invention of the cotton gin?

well as Germany, Austria-Hungary, and the Ottoman Empire. (5 points)

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The result of the peace conference in Paris and The Treaty of Versaille was that it formally ended World War I. The treaty was signed in Versailles, 30 miles from Paris, France.

Basically, the conclusion of the Treaty of Paris was that Germany was responsible for the destruction and pain caused by the war. The treaty dictated that Germany would pay reparations and disarm its military. Under the treaty agreements, these·resulted in a substantial loss of territory for Germany. Great Britain and France decided how Germany had to lose territories. The Rhineland was demilitarized, and Germany was required to disarm. This represented the creation of Czechoslovakia. Austria, Hungary, Poland, and Yugoslavia. Of course, these harsh decisions and punishment helped set the stage for more European conflict that would eventually result in the rise of the Nazi party, Adolph Hitler, and World War II.

I believe it was the weapon refered to as the "shlang"

Explanation:

The shlang was the first weapon Alexander encountered as it was when he first arrived in India when he found Jil Nehoundon who introduced him to the collection of rocks/balls made of stone and dirt.  These balls sometimes contained scrap metal and were thrown.  On impact these balls caused very harmful infections as they were often soaked in goat urine and or pig feciece.  

This resulted in the name "shlang"  as they were thrown/slang using leather belts (lang) and had scrap metal (-sh)

The French and Indian War was fought in North America between 1755-63 by French and British forces (including colonial militia). The "Indian" part of the name is key to understanding the conflict. Native Americans chose to ally with either England or France. Competition for their trade and support created conflicts that extended far from the cities of Montreal and Quebec along the St. Lawrence River, and from the English settlements on the Fall Line.

1. Before joining the Dodgers, Jackie Robinson faces racism at a gas station and airport. How does Jackie
respond?

Answers

1) One time when the team stopped for gas at a gas station, the owner wouldn't let them use the restrooms just because they were black. Jackie Robinson did not take too kindly to that. He then told the man that they wouldn't get their gas from him if they weren't allowed to use the restrooms at that gas station. This persuaded the man to let them use the restrooms. 



2) Jim Crow laws, enacted in southern states by the turn of the 20th century prohibited blacks and whites from “comingling” on trains, streetcars, and buses. Perhaps because the airline industry was new there no similar laws in place for air travel, but nonetheless, it was not easy for an African-American to buy a plane ticket. Jackie Robinson, who was the first African-American major league baseball player, was expected in Florida for spring training in 1946. He and his bride of two weeks boarded an American Airlines flight in Los Angeles to fly to Florida. In the 1940s planes could not fly across the country without several stops to re-fuel, and when they stopped in New Orleans, Robinson and his wife were not permitted to re-board with the other passengers. Left with time to kill in the New Orleans airport while they tried to get on to another flight, they also were refused service in the coffee shop. When they finally were able to book a flight out of New Orleans the next day, that flight landed in Pensacola, Florida where they were asked to find another means of transportation. They completed their trip, riding in the back of a segregated bus.
