Answer:
With the Gold Rush came a huge increase in population and a pressing need for civil government. In 1849, Californians sought statehood and, after heated debate in the U.S. Congress arising out of the slavery issue, California entered the Union as a free, nonslavery state by the Compromise of 1850.
Answer:
Because the Gold Rush brought increase in population and a pressing need for civil government.
Explanation:
In 1849, California wanted Statehood but was impossible intil they found Gold. The gold brought an increase in population which meant they needed a government. So California entered the Union as a free, nonslavery state in 1850.

Answer:

Explanation:
Who did Hitler use as a scapegoat for the cause of the war?
Answer:
Jews
Explanation:
Throughout history, Jews have been discriminated against, viewed as inferior to other
races, and blamed for hardships no matter how little evidence there may have been to support
these ideas. Whether it be blame for plagues, disappearances of children, financial hardships, or violence, Germans and other Europeans had no qualms about turning against their Jewish
neighbors. For example, after the destruction of Jewish homes and a synagogue in
Leutershausen, Germany, the NSDAP chapter of the neighboring town of Windsbach published a
flyer which claimed that “in the past few weeks the Jew has been determined to bait some of the peoples of the world into engaging in an awful war. The German nation was to be wrestled to its knees and destroyed. Millions of people were to be slaughtered and murdered” (Probing the Depths of German Anti-Semitism 196). However unfounded these statements may have been, they and similar accusations were common claims among Germans who refused to take
responsibility for their own problems, and who adamantly denied their anti-Semitism.
Anti-Semitism has caused Jews to be used as scapegoats throughout history. A scapegoat
is a person or group who is “blamed for the wrongdoings, mistakes, or faults of others, especially for reasons of expediency” (Oxford Dictionaries) despite having nothing to do with whatever the problem may be. Ironically, the term itself originated from ancient Jewish religious practices:
Jewish religious leaders would ceremoniously place their sins upon the animal and then banish it into the wilderness as a way of purging themselves from their own wrongdoing. Jews themselves have been used as scapegoats by other groups of people so often and to such an extent that even the statements quoted above are unsurprising.
However common such accusations against Jews are, the statement made in the NSDAP’s flyer in particular makes ridiculous and completely unjustifiable accusations. The
author of the flyer blames the Jews for an attack on their own people, claiming that it was
somehow a Jewish attack on the German people instead. The attack in question was committed
in 1938, when Germans in Leutershausen broke the windows of a Jewish home and those of a
nearby synagogue, and then piled cow dung just outside of the temple. Two days later, German
anti-Semites broke into the synagogue again and destroyed all of its contents as well as those of
multiple other Jewish residences. Especially after such an incident, no part of the accusations
made by Windsbach’s reactionary flyer had any supporting evidence: the idea that the Jews were planning an uprising had no factual basis, and the claim that Jews had committed the attacks in Leutershausen was simply an act of turning the blame on the victims.
The mere concept that Jews in Leutershausen could have been plotting an uprising is
simply impractical: only about twenty Jews lived in the whole town (Probing the Depths of Anti-
Semitism 196). Such a number of people could not possibly have hoped to have any success in a fight against German Christians, who made up the vast majority of the population, which had
reached 2000 in 1920 (Ingall 190). However, this sort of logic had no effect on how other
Germans responded to the Leutershausen attacks or on how Jews were viewed in Germany and throughout the world. No amount of evidence or lack thereof seemed sufficient enough to convince the Anti-Semites of their cruelty and misplaced blame.

Do you think the Bill of Rights does enough to protect civil liberties? In your opinion, are there any ways in which the Bill of Rights goes too far?
Answer:
The United States Constitution's Bill of Rights safeguards people' fundamental liberties. The Bill of Amendments guarantees freedom of expression, religion, the ability to maintain and bear weapons, the right to assemble and the rights to maintain and carry arms.
In my opinion, The Bill of Rights appeared to be drafted in broad terms that included everyone, yet this was not designed to cover everyone; whole communities were left off.

Describe the lasting legacy of the Vietnam War. How was the United States different after the war?
Answer:
The Vietnam War was a long, costly and divisive conflict that pitted the communist government of North Vietnam against South Vietnam and its principal ally, the United States. The conflict was intensified by the ongoing Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union. More than 3 million people (including over 58,000 Americans) were killed in the Vietnam War, and more than half of the dead were Vietnamese civilians. Opposition to the war in the United States bitterly divided Americans, even after President Richard Nixon ordered the withdrawal of U.S. forces in 1973. Communist forces ended the war by seizing control of South Vietnam in 1975, and the country was unified as the Socialist Republic of Vietnam the following year.

Describe the advertising of the 1950’s? What methods were used? Who did advertising cater to? Why? *
Answer:
In the 1950s, advertising executive, Rosser Reeves, invented the Unique Selling Point (USP). With this tactic, advertisers would create a phrase that summed up their product and then repeat it across all media. Thus, solidifying their product in the minds of consumers.
Explanation:
I couldn’t answer your other question on who did the advertising.
The 1950s could be called the advertiser's dream decade. World War II was over. The postwar economy had rebounded. Prosperity seemed like a sure thing. Americans were ready to buy homes, cars, clothes and products to validate their leisurely lifestyles. And advertisers were eager to sell goods. This time they had a more powerful tool than print ads: television. Advertising boomed in the 1950s because of America's culture at the time and TV's massive reach. Consumer consumption peaked at a historically high level. The end of World War II signaled the end of a thrift-based consciousness that Americans had held since the Great Depression. Goods, no longer as scarce as they were during the war, flowed into the marketplace. Credit was easy. Purchases could be made on "time." And advertisers were relentlessly urging consumers to "buy, buy, buy," writes Young. Consumers felt closer to the American Dream than in the previous decades.
Advertisers saw a potential gold mine when TV debuted in 1941. Television had sound and movement. Print ads, by contrast, were two-dimensional and static. Advertisers began a slow trek to TV by the early 1950s. A major drawback was the advertising cost; sponsors were spending between $10,000 to $20,000 for 1-minute spots – 10 times more than for radio ads, according to William H. Young in his book "The 1950s"

The partition was outlined in the Indian Independence Act 1947 and resulted in the dissolution of the British Raj, or Crown rule in India. The two self-governing countries of India and Pakistan legally came into existence at midnight on 15 August 1947. The partition displaced between 10 and 20 million people along religious lines, creating overwhelming refugee crises in the newly constituted dominions.There was large-scale violence, with estimates of the loss of life accompanying or preceding the partition disputed and varying between several hundred thousand and two million.
