Describe the Hepburn Act. What did the act achieve, and why was it different from the previous.
&Answer&
The Hepburn Act is a 1906 United States federal law that gave the Interstate Commerce Commission (ICC) the power to set maximum railroad rates and extended its jurisdiction. This led to the discontinuation of free passes to loyal shippers.[1] In addition, the ICC could view the railroads' financial records, a task simplified by standardized bookkeeping systems. For any railroad that resisted, the ICC's conditions would remain in effect until the outcome of legislation said otherwise

Compare the spread of epidemic diseases in the Americas in the sixteenth century with the spread of epidemic diseases in Eurasia during the fourteenth century.
Answer:
The spread of epidemic diseases in Eurasia during the fourteenth century mostly refers to the bubonic plague that hit East Asia, the Middle East, and Europe during this period.
The plague, carried in the fleas of rats, took several years to reach Europe from East Asia, mostly following the Silk Road. In Europe, in entered through Italy, and 5 years after, it had reached Northern Europe. It killed about a third of total European population at the time, causing deep changes in European society and economy.
The spread of epidemic diseases int he Americas during the sixteenth century was even more lethal, because it killed around 90% of Pre-Columbian Population. It was caused by the spread of diseases like measles and syphilis, which were common in Eurasia, but unknown in the Americas, meaning that Native American populations had no antibodies to fight these diseases.
These epidemics were the definitive factor that tipped the balance of power in the Americas, in favor of Europeans. Only a few fringe regions of the continent, mainly in the extreme north and south, were spared.

how did ww2 change america's policy on isolationism?
Answer:
During the 1930s, the combination of the Great Depression and the memory of tragic losses in World War I contributed to pushing American public opinion and policy toward isolationism. Isolationists advocated non-involvement in European and Asian conflicts and non-entanglement in international politics. Although the United States took measures to avoid political and military conflicts across the oceans, it continued to expand economically and protect its interests in Latin America. The leaders of the isolationist movement drew upon history to bolster their position. In his Farewell Address, President George Washington had advocated non-involvement in European wars and politics. For much of the nineteenth century, the expanse of the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans had made it possible for the United States to enjoy a kind of “free security” and remain largely detached from Old World conflicts. During World War I, however, President Woodrow Wilson made a case for U.S. intervention in the conflict and a U.S. interest in maintaining a peaceful world order. Nevertheless, the American experience in that war served to bolster the arguments of isolationists; they argued that marginal U.S. interests in that conflict did not justify the number of U.S. casualties.
