The number of people in the House of Representatives is equal--each state gets 2 representatives regardless of population.
True
False
Answer:
False
Explanation:
The U.S. Constitution set our legislative branch as having two chambers. One chamber is the Senate and the other is the House of Representatives. The Senate has two representatives from each state. The House of Representatives has a number of representatives based on how many people are living in the state. This is done so that the states that have a very small population have an equal say while the states with a higher population have a little bit more representation.

HAPPY VETERANS DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Veterans Day originated as “Armistice Day” on Nov. 11, 1919, the first anniversary of the end of World War I. Congress passed a resolution in 1926 for an annual observance, and Nov. 11 became a national holiday beginning in 1938. Unlike Memorial Day, Veterans Day pays tribute to all American veterans—living or dead—but especially gives thanks to living veterans who served their country honorably during war or peacetime.
Answer:

Name 4 ways Southern Whites prevented African Americans from voting?
Answer:
1) Violence: Blacks who tried to vote were threatened, beaten, and killed. Their families were also harmed. Sometimes their homes were burned down. Often, they lost their jobs or were thrown off their farms.
Whites used violence to intimidate blacks and prevent them from even thinking about voting. Still, some blacks passed the requirements to vote and took the risk. Some whites used violence to punish those “uppity” people and show other blacks what would happen to them if they voted.
2) Literacy tests: Today almost all adults can read. One hundred years ago, however, many people – black and white – were illiterate. Most illiterate people were not allowed to vote. A few were allowed if they could understand what was read to them. White officials usually claimed that whites could understand what was read. They said blacks could not understand it, even when they clearly could.
3) Property tests: In the South one hundred years ago, many states allowed only property owners to vote. Many blacks and whites had no property and could not vote.
4) Grandfather clause: People who could not read and owned no property were allowed to vote if their fathers or grandfathers had voted before 1867. Of course, practically no blacks could vote before 1867, so the grandfather clause worked only for whites.
Explanation: From about 1900 to 1965, most African Americans were not allowed to vote in the South. This was especially true in the Deep South: Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, and South Carolina.
White people in power used many methods to keep African Americans from voting. Some of these methods also prevented poor white people from voting.

how changes to the railroad helped American
industries to grow.
Answer: Railways as a key factor of economic development.
Explanation:
Railway infrastructure was a key factor in economic development during the Industrial Revolution. The installation of railways has significantly increased traffic, services and goods have had a rapid flow since then. Trains could haul a huge amount of goods in a significantly shorter time, which was not the case before. Railways caused an economic boom, production in all sectors intensified. Thus, for example, agricultural and dairy products that are more susceptible to perishability could be quickly distributed and placed on the market. The construction industry has also experienced great progress as the material has been transported faster and easier. In this way, new jobs were created because more were being built. People were able to travel faster to different locations by providing their services and thus generate income.
Answer:
A railroad is a road laid with rails, usually in pairs of continuous lines forming tracks, on which trains run for the transportation of passengers and goods. Railroads are considered the most efficient form of transportation. They are widely used to convey heavy and bulky commodities over long distances. For example, in the year 1880, the transcontinental railroad was transporting $50 million worth of bulky goods each year.
The American industry grew tremendously with the new modifications to the railroad. The new railroad system made transportation of bulky cash crop produce easier from the farming site to the processing site. Most of the farmers could not afford an expensive means of transportation.
Secondly, railroads helped people to connect to different parts of the country at a reduced cost. People could move from one region to another through the use of the rail system with minimal expense.

Many of the voters who supported Democrats were __________.
Answer:
Read
Explanation:
Having aligned themselves with the Republican Party since the days of Abraham Lincoln, what made African Americans switch to the Democrats during the Depression Era? This lesson explores why African Americans voted for Franklin Roosevelt, despite the fact that the Democratic Party had traditionally denied them basic civil rights. Using primary sources and a variety of voices from the period, students can discover how the Depression affected African- American workers, and why black voters switched their allegiance during the period. Students will also learn how Democrats and Republicans of the time responded to the call for civil rights. Roosevelt’s problem was that in order to retain his position of leadership, he had to keep the Southern Democrats – who time and again denied African Americans the vote in their states – within the party. Although Roosevelt made no move to reverse the legal segregation at the time, he did invite several African-American leaders to serve as advisors to the administration. He also ensured that African Americans had access to relief during the worst days of the Depression. Because of Roosevelt’s willingness to engage African Americans as Americans, he won their votes for the Democratic Party for decades to come.
