Answer:
The Spanish-American War began on April 25th, 1898 and ended on August 12th, 1898, lasting three months, two weeks and four days. It was fought between Spain and the United States, after Spain declared war on the U.S. because the U.S. supported Cuba's desire to be independent of Spanish rule.
Explanation:
1. 3,000 Americans died during the Spanish-American war, but only approximately 385 died from battle itself. The rest died of disease. Typhoid and yellow fever was an enemy to both the Spanish and the Americans.
2. During the Spanish-American War there were 29 battles. 11 battles were won by the United States, 11 battles were won by the Spanish, and the remaining battles were considered inconclusive as to who actually won.
3. On July 17th, 1898, the Spanish surrendered to the United States at Santiago.
4. Although Cuba gained its independence as a result of the Spanish-American war, the country was under U.S. military control for three years after the war ended, until May 20th, 1902.
5. Spain was once considered to be the most powerful colonial nation in the world, but lost much of its control as one country after another declared independence just as Cuba did in 1898.
6. The Cubans were being treated horribly by the Spanish, which led to Cuba's desire for independence.
7. Cubans were forced into slavery and thousands of them died from both starvation and disease.
8. On June 22nd, 1898 U.S. troops landed in Cuba.
9. On July 1st, 1898, the United States defeated the Spanish at the Battle of San Juan Heights, and on July 3rd, 1898, off Santiago Bay, the United States destroyed the Spanish fleet.
10. On April 25th, 1898, the U.S. declared war on Spain, and the first battle occurred on May 1st, 1898 at Manila Bay in the Philippines. The U.S. won.

Which statement most accurately describes a cause of the Cold War?
Answer:
Lasting from the end of World War II in 1945 until the early 1990s, the Cold War was one of the most significant events of the 20th century. At its heart, the Cold War was essentially a ‘face off’ or competition between the United States and the Soviet Union after World War II. Historians have identified several causes that led to the outbreak of the Cold War, including: tensions between the two nations at the end of World War II, the ideological conflict between both the United States and the Soviet Union, the emergence of nuclear weapons, and the fear of communism in the United States.
TENSIONS BETWEEN SUPERPOWERS
The first major cause of the Cold War was the increased tensions between the United States and the Soviet Union at the end of World War II. During the Second World War, the Soviet Union under the leadership of Joseph Stalin, was allied with Britain, France, and the United States against Nazi Germany, Italy and Japan. At the time, the alliance was based around destroying the fascist regimes in the Europe and Japanese expansionism in the Pacific. However, by 1945 the major fighting in both the European Theater and Pacific Theater began to come to an end. For example, World War II in Europe essentially ended with the death of Adolf Hitler on April 30th, 1945. Japan was defeated soon after in August of 1945 with the atomic bombing of both Hiroshima and Nagasaki. During these final stages of World War II, the partnership between the Soviet Union and the other Allied nations began to fall apart. This is best evidenced by the Allied wartime conferences in Yalta and Potsdam.

Who is John Locke?
Give me an essay of who John Locke is and it has to be 4 or more lines.
(100 points)
Answer:
John Locke, (born August 29, 1632, Wrington, Somerset, England—died October 28, 1704, High Laver, Essex), an English philosopher whose works lie at the foundation of modern philosophical empiricism and political liberalism. He was an inspirer of both the European Enlightenment and the Constitution of the United States. His philosophical thinking was close to that of the founders of modern science, especially Robert Boyle, Sir Isaac Newton, and other members of the Royal Society. His political thought was grounded in the notion of a social contract between citizens and in the importance of toleration, especially in matters of religion. Much of what he advocated in the realm of politics was accepted in England after the Glorious Revolution of 1688–89 and in the United States after the country's declaration of independence in 1776.
Locke’s family was sympathetic to Puritanism but remained within the Church of England, a situation that colored Locke’s later life and thinking. Raised in Pensford, near Bristol, Locke was 10 years old at the start of the English Civil Wars between the monarchy of Charles I and parliamentary forces under the eventual leadership of Oliver Cromwell. Locke’s father, a lawyer, served as a captain in the cavalry of the parliamentarians and saw some limited action. From an early age, one may thus assume, Locke rejected any claim by the king to have a divine right to rule.
After the first Civil War ended in 1646, Locke’s father was able to obtain for his son, who had shown academic ability, a place at Westminster School in distant London. It was to this already famous institution that Locke went in 1647, at age 14. Although the school had been taken over by the new republican government, its headmaster, Richard Busby (himself a distinguished scholar), was a royalist. For four years Locke remained under Busby’s instruction and control (Busby was a strong disciplinarian who much favored the birch). In January 1649, just half a mile away from Westminster School, Charles was beheaded on the order of Cromwell. The boys were not allowed to attend the execution, though they were undoubtedly well aware of the events taking place nearby.
The curriculum of Westminster centered on Latin, Greek, Hebrew, Arabic, mathematics, and geography. In 1650 Locke was elected a King’s Scholar, an academic honor and financial benefit that enabled him to buy several books, primarily classic texts in Greek and Latin. Although Locke was a good student, he did not enjoy his schooling; in later life, he attacked boarding schools for their overemphasis on corporal punishment and the uncivil behavior of pupils. In his enormously influential work Some Thoughts Concerning Education (1693), he would argue for the superiority of private tutoring for the education of young gentlemen

2) (2 pts) How are the Declaration and Constitution similar?
3) (2 pts) How are the Declaration and Constitution different?
4) (2 pts) How do we know that the US Constitution is meant to be a “living” document?
Answer:
1)The most obvious similarity between the two documents is their intended purpose. Both of these Bills of Rights are expressly designed to amend the constitution of each nation and act as a living document to spell out various legal matters, particularly rights and liberties.
2)The Declaration was designed to justify breaking away from a government; the Constitution and Bill of Rights were designed to establish a government. The Declaration stands on its own—it has never been amended—while the Constitution has been amended 27 times.
3)The Constitution of the United States is the foundation of our Federal Government. ... At the same time, it is flexible and allows for changes in the Government. The Constitution is known as a “living” document because it can be amended, although in over 200 years there have only been 27 amendments.
