The most common weapon of the Aztec was the spears that were known to pierce Spanish armor and were sharp enough that warriors could use them to shave. Another name for their spears was, tepoztopilli. Aztec warriors also used bows & arrows, darts, clubs as well. The Spanish used allies they had made by force or persuasion. The fact that Moctezuma believed Cortés to be a reincarnated god also helped with aiding the Spanish in entering Tenochtitlan. The Spanish uses guns, swords, and cannons as their weapons in the fight against the Aztec but, their greatest weapon proved to be the Small pox virus which they brought to the new world from Europe. Since small pox had been around for a while in Europe, most Europeans had developed and immunity to it but still carried the virus. The Aztecs had never been exposed to the virus so within a number of weeks, a large percent of the Aztec population had been wiped out by the virus.

1. The history of the ancient Hebrews comes from the Hebrew Bible, which contains a collection of oral histories passed down through the years.

The correct option is Bible, because it is the word that is most appropriate for the definition given next to it, and is also the most general choice. The options Prophets, Ketuvim and Writings are incorrect because they are contained in the first option.

2. It starts with Abraham, who is considered the father of the Hebrew people. According to the Hebrew Bible, he spoke to God. God told him that he was to move his people to Canaan and teach them that they should worship only one God.

The correct option is Abraham, as he is indeed considered the father of the Hebrew people. Although Moses guided the Hebrew people to Canaan, he is not considered the father of them. The option Saul is also incorrect, because he is the first king of the Kingdom of Israel and Judah.

3. The people worshiped God and became monotheistic. They started practicing a religion that came to be known as Judaism.

The correct option is monotheistic, because the Judaism teaches to only believe in one God. The option polytheistic is incorrect because this means they would believe in more than one God. The option Christians is also incorrect because it is the name of a different religion, and the option Assyrians is incorrect as well because it is not a religious term that fits in the sentence.

Answer:

Women and African Americans in the U.S gained significantly from the Second World War.

Explanation:

Since the Second World War,  the participation rate for women of the United States in the workforce has nearly doubled, hitting about 55% in 1985. Increases in employment rates were widespread for all categories, especially women having responsibilities of young children. A significant aspect of social reform in the United States has been the educational advancement of the female population. In addition, decreases in fertility rates, as well as reductions in family size increased childlessness, and delayed childbearing has allowed many women to seek job opportunities outside the home. African Americans filled many vacancies left by their white counterparts and it had helped to improve their social status.

Why did people move to specific towns
adelina 88 [10]

The correct answer is Option B) They United against Native American tribes.




Poeple moved to specific towns because they were united against the Native American tribes.



As the United States began to expand westwards, they encoursted lush landscapes with huge potential. However, all these places were already inhabited by numerous Native American tribes.



The government began to establish small towns in these places.



As more and more people heard about these prosperous areas, they began to converge and populate these towns.



The idea was to eventually drive the Native Americans out of their own land and use their abundant natural resources.

According to Thomas Paine, what are the three components of the British Constitution that needed to be examined and improved for
hram777 [196]
Paine first wrote about the relationship between society and government and how a government's efficacy could be judged only on its ability to protect the liberty and property of its citizens. He argued that the government laid out in the English constitution failed to do this.
Next, Paine argued against the concept of monarchy and hereditary succession. He used the Bible to illustrate God's condemnation of monarchies. Then he argued that America no longer needed England's help, and that because England had attacked its colonies, it was no longer deserving of their loyalties. He wrote that American commerce would be better off without England's help. He proposed a government of representative democracy. Finally, he discussed America's military strength and potential.
Once published "Common Sense" was amazingly popular. In 1776 it sold about 150,000 copies. George Washington ordered the pamphlet read to all his troops. According to Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Gordon S. Wood, "Common Sense" was "the most incendiary and popular pamphlet of the entire revolutionary era."
