How did people in Japan see their
emperor?

Answers

They respect the Emperor more than they should. I mean it's not bad to respect someone, but it's weird to respect someone just because of their blood heritage. Unlike the royalty in most other Western countries like say the UK, it's a bit of taboo to speak badly about the Emperor and the royalty family. So I feel that the respect is a bit superficial and forced. But it's not like people spend every day worshiping the Emperor, most people don't really care that much in their day to day lives. It's not usually something that people bring up in daily conversations. But if the Emperor gets sick or something, then especially the rightists will make a big deal of it to “mourn” for the Emperor and set the “appropriate” mood, which is to be more depressing and not be too happy. So in that sense, those kind of things might impact their lives. Also, people tend to listen to what the Emperor has to say about things, even though he's not allowed to have political opinions, so what he says tend to be more general.

Walt Whitman was one of the greatest of American poets - what was his stand on the war and the concept of Manifest Destiny?

Answers

Answer:

ANSWER IS FROM ANSWER ON ANOTHER BRAINLY QUESTION ASKING THE SAME THING!!!

Walt Whitman supported the Mexican-American War. He justified his support of the war with the concept of manifest destiny. This was the idea that the USA was destined to stretch from coast to coast on the North American continent. Dominated by Anglo-Saxons, the USA had a mission to spread civilization and institutions across the American continent. Whitman believed that it was America's duty to rid Mexico off its misery, inefficiency, her burlesque against freedom and superstition.

Curiously, such racist beliefs were expressed by the American poet Walt Whitman. Of Manifest Destiny, Whitman wrote: “What has miserable, inefficient Mexico—with her superstition, her actual tyranny by the few over the many—what has she to do with the great mission of peopling the new world with a noble race? Be it ours, to achieve that mission!” Clearly, Whitman considered himself, as a white American, better than the Mexicans. Clearly, he believed in America’s right to conquer them. Whitman’s ideas on Manifest Destiny likely surprised his readers because they are different from the ideas in most of his work. However, perhaps this contradiction reflects a more general attitude of the times.

a. Purchased from India.

b. Traded with the Ottomans for supplies.

c. Colonies in India and the Americas.

d. Wars that lead to war payments in the form of natural resources.

thanks​

Answers

I'm pretty sure its C.  I don't know for sure though

Britain gained or harvested raw materials from the colonies in India and America apart from having them in their own country.

Option C is the correct answer.

What is meant by raw materials?

Raw materials are the basic forms that are used to manufacture a product in the production process.

The raw materials like cotton for production in Britain came from the colonies of the outside world. This had helped Britain to exercise colonial rule and became the greatest colonial power at the end of the 18th Century.

Therefore, the raw materials from outside colonies helped Britain to gain control over India and America.

Answers

The years between 1861 and 1865 were the most tumultuous five-year span in Louisiana history. During this period, Louisiana seceded from the United States, sent thousands of Confederate soldiers out of state, witnessed Union invasion and occupation, and saw the emancipation of more than 300,000 slaves. While people’s experience in the war varied depending on the parish they lived in, their race, and their wealth, all would agree that this event changed their lives and the course of the state’s history forever.
