<p>The quotas limited immigration of southern and eastern Europe by basing their numbers on the population distribution of America pre-S/E Europe invasion, ie mid 1800s. So, while S/E Europe was basically barred, the Old Immigrants were still able to immigrate and, more importantly, assimilate into American culture relatively easily. Hence higher immigration rates as a whole</p>
<p>frozentears i think you have everyhting right
dang stupid "white man's burden".. i put christianity spreading</p>
<p>bobisbob: us involvement: was there any other answers u can remember? i know it wasnt German rejection of the 14 points (because they accepted it)
but i dunno if i put anything different than the wilson's stance on neutrality</p>
<p>bobisbob: are you sure tammany hall is urban corruption (that is what i put) but someone before said itw as immigration</p>
<p>Italy was paired with spain, not germany and i picked that. Spain and Italy are cathlics i assume....but meh need more research i guess....</p>
<p>they did want to live in what they have annexed...eg: hawaii. so i put christian as well</p>
<p>and i don't think it was boll, etc. i forgot what i put. but i think that actually has happened in the south during the war.</p>
<p>for the quota thing i put "limit immigration while allowingthe europeans to come in" because in the 1900s, us was mainly discouraging asians to come.</p>
<p>and yes t. hall was urban corruption</p>
<p>the answer to the wilson question was german rejection of the 14 points becase the question asked which 1 WAS NOT A FACTOR that caused the war</p>
<p>i dont even think spain and italy was an answer :( was it?</p>
<p>for the quota question: what were other answers...</p>
<p>the cause for involvement: are you sure it said which one was NOT?</p>
<p>the speech on womens suffrage was given by wilson right?? Cause that was the time when the female voting rights debate was going on.</p>
<p>Also, which new deal agency helped the enviroment??? Was it the CCC?</p>
<p>spain and italy IS AN answer</p>
<p>and i am positive its NOT</p>
<p>and ya wilson gave the speech</p>
<p>i put wpa coz it built schools, playgrounds etc</p>
<p>Yes, the cause for WW1 involvement was an Except question. So the answer would be the German-rejection option, then.</p>
<p>I put CCC, since it asked about ecological matters and the org. was called civilian CONSERVATION corps. A guess, but a fairly reasonable one.</p>
<p>Tammany Hall is corruption. It referred to the messed up politics of New York, led by notorious criminals like Boss Tweed.</p>
<p>hmm ccc deals with oung men digging dtiches etc while wpa deals with buildig parks...i dono..could be either</p>
<p>Its definitely Italy and Hungary, Germany was going through a time of unification and nationalism during the late 19th century - not much immigration. Also Germany is considered to be a western european country due to ethnicity more than anything. </p>
<p>I put CCC.</p>
<p>For the question about the boll weevil, that is not the answer. That was a reason for the northern migration because the boll weevil took over many southern cotton crops in the south during the time of world war 1. I put unions recruiting blacks because that seemed odd.</p>
<p>and also wilsons fourteen points was after world war 1 so I dont think it could be a cause for intervention in the war.</p>
<p>it is CCC for sure... no question about it
theres so many things they did directly ecological (conservation)</p>
<p>WPA not really ecological (building parks dont conserve crap)</p>
<p>someone look back at my huge post... what do u think of those answers</p>
<p>Spain and Italy. I am 100% positive.</p>
<p>Well ANYWAYS</p>
<p>I know i seem a little bit obsessive with this test.. and thats cause i am, everytime i think i do good on a test, i bomb it.... and right now im really confident :( i dunno what to think anymore, its a bunch of mixed emotion</p>
<p>What did you guys think of the test: Easy, Medium, Hard
My gauge is easy to medium. I want to predict how harsh the curve is so input would be nice.</p>
<p>btw check my ansewrs on the big post</p>
<p>I think this test is fairly easy. I am guessing around a -6 buffer...</p>
<p>How many immigration questions were there? There was the one that asked where the largest amount of immigrants came from, which I was pretty sure was Italy and Hungary, and then there was the one about immigration restrictions, which was to prevent south and east immigration.
Were there anymore?</p>
<p>How about the ethnicity of the people who follow those various religions? I said German, but I wasn't sure.</p>
<p>i don't thhink its italy and hungary. i think its germany and something...</p>
<p>Germans weren't really immigrating at that point in time anymore. It was the "new" wave of immigration from south and east europe. Germans were old hat at that point.</p>
<p>Alright, if anyone read my last post, that was wrong because I didn't read how the data was formulated.</p>
<p>Ok, from 1880 to 1900:</p>
<p>700,000 man increase in German-born pop
2,000 man increase in Spanish-born
200,000 man decrease in Irish-born
120,000 man increase from Hungary
440,000 man increase from Italy
200,000 man decrease from England</p>
<p>Therefore, I'd have to say Hungary + Italy is correct</p>
<p>That's correct. It <em>has</em> to be Italy and Hungary. History is all about trends, the big picture. The big picture at the end of the 19th century was that there was a rise in immigration from South and East Europe. </p>
<p>I'll name off a couple I remember:</p>
<p>For the origin of various religions, including Roman Catholic and Mennonite, it was Germany.</p>
<p>John Adams, a Federalist, was in favor of the passage of the Alien and Sedition Acts, hence he didn't veto it. Which makes this choice the correct answer for the Except question regarding A&S acts.</p>
<p>All the progressive movements were known for their female leadership, not Transcendentalism.</p>
<p>Jonathan Edward was the most prominent figure of the First Great Awakening.</p>
<p>Thomas Paine's Common Sense urged colonists to embrace independence from Britain. </p>
<p>The Quota acts of the 1920s decreased the influx of S/E European immigrants.</p>
<p>WEB DuBois championed the concept of the Talented Tenth.</p>
<p>Malcolm X supported self defense, to any extreme. </p>
<p>Stephen Douglass is associated with popular soveirgnty.</p>
<p>The creation of the Republican Party was the result of the Kansas Nebraska Act. </p>
<p>The Dredd Scott decision inhibited freed slaves' citizenship rights.</p>
<p>Andrew Johnson was impeached for opposing Reconstruction acts, which were supported by Radical Republicans. Being a moderate Republican who was chosen by Lincoln to balance out the pres. ticket, he was sympathetic to the South.</p>
<p>The 4th amendment was influenced by the British writs of assistance, which gave British soldiers free reign to barge into any colonists house under suspicion of treason.</p>
<p>For Eisenhower's impact, I said he desegregated. His presidency was late 1950s, and Brown vs. Board was 1954, so it seemed to fit.</p>
<p>Douglas MacArthur was dismissed following his insubordination during the Korean War. THat question involved the quote about priority of military over civilian matters.</p>
<p>Joseph McArthy was the AntiCommunist leader during the 2nd Red Scare.</p>
<p>Theodore Roosevelt's corollary to the Monroe Doctrine was justification for Carribbean intervention. </p>
<p>Franklin Roosevelt's Good Neighbor Policy renounced further intervention in Latin America.</p>
<p>Also, his quarantine speech was in reaction to the agressive tactics of nations like Italy and Japan; it increased isolationism in America. He promoted economic measures to prevent further encroahment by these totalitarian countries.</p>
<p>The Constitution provided for election to one part of the legislature, I believe- the House of Representatives. Presidents were still nominated when Washington got the position, and the confusion over establishing a sound election system led to various difficulties with 2nd place getting VP, the corrupt bargain of 1824. Judiciary is still appointed- the highest positions, at least. Direct election of Senators didn't come about until the 17th Amendment, championed by the Populists.</p>
<p>I'll post more as they come to me.</p>
