why did the Ghandi-Jinnah Talks failed in 1944?
Answer:
By the autumn of the year 1944 the situation in British India had reached to a critical level. The Second World War was raging full tilt in most parts of the world. India was itself in real peril of an invasion by imperialist Japan. By that time the war had caused a debilitating strain on Great Britain’s resources and her financial reserves were all but depleted. Indian natives belonging to all communities and groups viewed the unfolding historical drama with increasing anxiety that arose from their feelings of uncertainty for their future. Fate had placed their imperial masters in the very discomfiting position of asking their subjects for help in routing another imperial adversary. However, time and circumstances could not allow an indulgent reflection on this historical irony for the colonial subjects of India. Especially for the Indian leaders time was of the essence as here was an opportunity to strike while the iron was hot. But just as England needed the Indians, so the Indians needed England, which despite its indisposition was nevertheless the only empire left which could bring some semblance of order to the global upheaval that threatened to lead to total destruction. Now this equilibrium of need allowed for negotiations between Indian politicians and the British as to the future of India. By this time Indian leaders throughout the political spectrum were demanding complete self-rule. Indian society was fast agitating against the patronizing and condescending hegemony of their colonial masters and ached to break free from the shackles of foreign subjugation. But the fate of India could not be decided by one community or social group alone. India was home to the world’s most diverse ethnic, linguistic and religious population. Indeed it was the British who had united this land through a long and usually violent process of consolidation. In the century since the complete conquest of India by England, nationalist feelings had started to take shape among the natives which was encouraged by the British for very pragmatic reasons. The territorial consolidation of India however favoured some more than others. In the new colonial India, Hindus found themselves in the enviable position of being the community having the biggest strength in sheer numbers. In contrast Muslim nationalism arose from feelings of shared loss and fall from grace they enjoyed as the ruling culture in the lands now occupied by the British. Thus two distinct nationalist currents dominated the intellectual climate in India and both were simultaneously shaping the consciousness of Hindu and Muslim communities.
Now that India seemed to be slipping fast from the grasp of the British Raj, the leaders of both Hindu and Muslim communities, each of which by that time had clear visions of the aspirations and goals of their respective constituencies, needed to find a common-ground so that freedom from colonial rule could finally be achieved. To clarify the picture let us examine the positions of the parties that held the keys to India’s destiny. There were three prime stake-holders in the political landscape of India. These were the principal parties that had the most to gain or lose from the critical decisions that would shape the course of India’s history. A brief summary of their position and concerns is outlined below.
His Majesty’s Government (H.M.G):
Besieged on all fronts and running fast towards bankruptcy, the British position in India was further complicated by growing resentment among the native population. Lord Wavell, the viceroy in India, in a letter to the Secretary of State for India, summarized the British position in this way “With a lost and hostile India, we are likely to be reduced in the east to the position of commercial bag-man.”1 He went on to write “The Congress and the League are the dominant parties in Hindu and Muslim India, and will remain so… We cannot by-pass them, and shall be compelled in the end to negotiate with them along with representatives of the less important parties.”1

Speculate as to why men might have continued working in the packing houses under such conditions. Why do you think they didn’t seek other employment, or seek to unionize at this point?
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Speculate as to why men might have continued working in the packing houses under such conditions. Why do you think they didn’t seek other employment, or seek to unionize at this point?
I can speculate and said that these men worked in those meat packaging companies in Chicago because they had the necessity and that was the only type of job they were able to do because they lacked the preparation and education to perform other kinds of jobs.
So when people have a necessity -and in this case to survive and make a daily living- they accept any kind of job, no matter the difficulties.
I think they didn’t seek other employment, or seek to unionize at this point because they did not have that vision. They lived by the day, They only thought of earning some money to feed their families. When people are working in these conditions and under these circumstances, they are only focused on the grind, not having the time and the consciousness to think beyond their basic needs. And that is a real pity.
Upton Sinclair is the author of the novel titled "The Jungle," written in 1906. In the novel, American journalist Upton Sinclair describes the horrible and unhealthy conditions of the meatpacking industry of America.

Why did Europeans want to explore other lands? How did Portugal gain an advantage in trading in comparison to other European nations? How did Russia's expansion differ from that of other European nations?
Answer:
Why did Europeans want to explore other lands?
They wanted to explore other lands because European nations were interested in finding new lands to trade with, or to establish new colonies from where to extract resources.
How did Portugal gain an advantage in trading in comparison to other European nations?
Because it had a favorable geographic position, in the southwestern most point of the European peninsula, facing the Atlantic Ocean. Portuguese explorers were the first to navigate around Africa, Asia, and to establish their own colonial trade ports in these continents.
How did Russia's expansion differ from that of other European nations?
Russia had very little access to the Atlantic Ocean, so it instead expanded eastward, conquering and colonizing Siberia. It also expanded northwards, establishing small cities in the Artic coast.
At the time of Missouri's admittance to the Union, there was
The correct answer to this question is the following.
Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.
At the time of Missouri's admittance to the Union, there was another admittance to the union. It was the state of Maine.
So we can say that the admission of Maine into the Union at the same time as Missouri represented a significant provision of the Missouri Compromise to maintain the balance of slave states and non-slaves states. In other words, the slave-holding states and the free states of the Union wanted to maintain a balance of control and power in the representation in the Congress of the United States. These states knew that any imbalance regarding this issue could affect their political and economic interests.
So Main entered as a free slave state, meanwhile, Missouri entered as a slave state.
Answer: (A) a balance in Congress between free states and slave states.

why did Thomas Jefferson doubted in buying the Louisiana territory?
The power of purchasing land, especially land as vast as the Louisiana Territory, was something that Jefferson wasn't sure was constitutional. Nowhere in the constitution does it say that the federal government has the power to buy land. Jefferson worried that the government was overstepping its boundary.
Also, Jefferson worried that the federal government may become too powerful. He was more in favor of states rights instead of having all of the power located with the central federal government. Despite these viewpoints, Jefferson did a number of acts as president that would tilt him toward federalism as opposed to anti-federalism. One such example would be the Embargo Act of 1807.

Explain 'Containment' during the Cold War and the policies that went along with it and how the policies stopped Communism.
Containment was a United States policy using numerous strategies to prevent the spread of communism abroad. A component of the Cold War, this policy was a response to a series of moves by the Soviet Union to enlarge its communist sphere of influence in Eastern Europe, China, Korea, and Vietnam.
In 1947, President Harry S. Truman pledged that the United States would help any nation resist communism in order to prevent its spread. His policy of containment is known as the Truman Doctrine
First laid out by George F. Kennan in 1947, Containment stated that communism needed to be contained and isolated, or it would spread to neighboring countries. The US's attempt to stop the spread of communism and "Russian expansive tendencies" through economic and military measures.

During her reign, what action did Elizabeth I tilke to resolve the religious turmoil that had engulfed England under her immediate predecessors?
A
She restored Catholicism to England by declaring it the official state religion.
В
She outlawed the sale of indulgences to root out corruption among religious leaders.
С
She established a church that would serve as a compromise between Catholics and Protestants.
D
She nullified the Act of Supremacy that had given the monarchy control of the Church of England,
Answer:
Queen Elizabeth I inherited a nation suffering from religious flux, but went on to build a stable, peaceful nation.
1534: The Reformation of Henry VIII made England’s monarch the spiritual and secular head of the realm.
1547: Protestantism is continued under Edward VI.
1553: Queen Mary I reversed this decision when she restored Roman Catholicism as the state religion, and the Pope became head of the church once again.
1559: Queen Elizabeth wished to create a new moderate religious settlement derived from Henry VIII's break from Rome. She established the Church of England in 1559.
Explanation:Queen Elizabeth I wanted to build a stable, peaceful nation with a strong government, free from the influence of foreign powers in matters of the church and the state. To realise this vision it was necessary to reach a new religious settlement that was as inclusive as possible. Changes needed to be introduced with a minimum of confrontation in order to overcome fear and suspicion at home and abroad.
The choice of state religion would have political consequences, whatever the decision. Choosing to remain Catholic would surrender power to Rome and ally England with other Catholic states, such as France and Spain. Returning to Protestantism would align England with the Dutch, its main trading partner, but risked antagonising Spain, the most powerful nation in the world. Protestantism would also create a fear of persecution among England’s Catholics.
The answer is C. She established a church that would serve as a compromise between Catholics and Protestants.

Referencing the scenario, describe the foundation of the power that the FAA exercised
related to the use of personal electronic devices, and explain how the president can affect
the FAA's power.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
The FAA is the Federal Aviation Administration, an agency created in August 1958 that later became part of the US Transportation Department.
The goal of the FAA is to research and survey to develop the most advanced protocols in security for the airplane transportation system and ensure effective traffic control.
This includes all the possible scenarios in which there could be a risk in the navigation process, including portable electronic devices (PED). Although there has never been any scientific evidence that these devices can represent a real danger for airplanes, the FAA banned the use of these electronic devices as a precautionary or preventive measure, during take-off and landing.
The United States President, as the chief of the Cabinet, has the power to interb¿vene and influence decisions in the US Transportation Department and can issue recommendations to FAA.
Indeed, recently, the executive branch has elaborated some comments in this regard.
