Explanation:
Briefly explain ONE specific way native peoples defended their political sovereignty after European encroachment on their lands.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
One specific way in which native peoples defended their political sovereignty after European encroachment on their lands was war. Yes, the Native American Indian tribes always resisted the white English colonist's invasions to their lands, and although sometimes they tried to be amicable and offered some help to the colonists, as was the case of the beginning of the Jamestown, Virginia colony and the Powathans tribe, the constant was aggression and war.
So we could say that the Native American Indians tried diplomacy, negotiation, sometimes alliances, and definitely, their last resource was war.

Answer:
The social gospel's origins are often traced to the rise of late 19th-century urban industrialization, immediately following the Civil War.

Explanation:
Why did some ministers and lay believers embrace the Social Gospel?
Answer:Because became a central theme of the social gospel movement which also became tied to a belief in what Ohio minister Washington Gladden called “social salvation.” This concept emphasized that religion's fundamental purpose was to create systemic changes in American political.
The Social Gospel was a social movement within Protestantism that applied Christian ethics to social problems, especially issues of social justice such as economic inequality, poverty, alcoholism, crime, racial tensions, slums, unclean environment, child labor, lack of unionization, poor schools, and the dangers of war. It was most prominent in the early-20th-century United States and Canada. Theologically, the Social Gospelers sought to put into practice the Lord's Prayer (Matthew 6:10): "Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven". They typically were postmillennialist; that is, they believed the Second Coming could not happen until humankind rid itself of social evils by human effort.[a] The Social Gospel was more popular among clergy than laity. Its leaders were predominantly associated with the liberal wing of the progressive movement, and most were theologically liberal, although a few were also conservative when it came to their views on social issues. Important leaders included Richard T. Ely, Josiah Strong, Washington Gladden, and Walter Rauschenbusch.

Question 1
Read Wilson’s Fourteen Points speech. In particular, consider the excerpt and points below, then answer the questions that follow:
We entered this war because violations of right had occurred which touched us to the quick and made the life of our own people impossible unless they were corrected and the world secured once for all against their recurrence. What we demand in this war, therefore, is nothing peculiar to ourselves. It is that the world be made fit and safe to live in; and particularly that it be made safe for every peace-loving nation which, like our own, wishes to live its own life, determine its own institutions, be assured of justice and fair dealing by the other peoples of the world, as against force and selfish aggression. All the peoples of the world are in effect partners in this interest, and for our own part we see very clearly that unless justice be done to others it will not be done to us. The programme of the world's peace, therefore, is our program; and that program, the only possible program, as we see it, is this:
II. Absolute freedom of navigation upon the seas, outside territorial waters, alike in peace and in war, except as the seas may be closed in whole or in part by international action for the enforcement of international covenants.
III. The removal, so far as possible, of all economic barriers and the establishment of an equality of trade conditions among all the nations consenting to the peace and associating themselves for its maintenance.
IV. Adequate guarantees given and taken that national armaments will be reduced to the lowest points consistent with domestic safety.
V. A free, open-minded, and absolutely impartial adjustment of all colonial claims, based upon a strict observance of the principle that in determining all such questions of sovereignty the interests of the population concerned must have equal weight with the equitable claims of the government whose title is to be determined.
XIV. A general association of nations must be formed under specific covenants for the purpose of affording mutual guarantees of political independence and territorial integrity to great and small states alike.
Part A
In his speech, Wilson makes the following statement: “All the peoples of the world are in effect partners in this interest, and for our own part we see very clearly that unless justice be done to others it will not be done to us... The program of the world's peace, therefore, is our program…”

Which statement best explains the cartoon's meaning? It threatens colonies that refuse to join the plan of union. It criticizes people who oppose the plan of union. It encourages the plan of union in order to protect against threats. It compares the plan of union to a dangerous snake.
Answer:
It encourages the plan of union in order to protect against threats.
Explanation:
Benjamin Franklin's political cartoon of 1754 which depicted a snake cut into several pieces sent a message to the fragmented American colonies to unite and fight against threats.
This cartoon, called as 'Join or Die', called for the intervention of the British Crown in uniting the American colonies and advocated the support of the Albany Plan of Union which was subsequently a plan to unify the colonies under a strong central government.
The cartoon demonstrated the need for the American colonies to unite against the French government and its allies. It sent a strong message that if the colonies do not unite, they would surely be defeated by the enemy.

Briefly explain the different reasons for the United States entering World War I in 1917.
On April 2, 1917, President Woodrow Wilson went before a joint session of Congress to request a declaration of war against Germany. Wilson cited Germany’s violation of its pledge to suspend unrestricted submarine warfare in the North Atlantic and the Mediterranean, as well as its attempts to entice Mexico into an alliance against the United States, as his reasons for declaring war. On April 4, 1917, the U.S. Senate voted in support of the measure to declare war on Germany. The House concurred two days later. The United States later declared war on German ally Austria-Hungary on December 7, 1917.
