Why did Christopher Columbus name the people he met in the Bahamas in 1492 " Indians”?
Answer:
When Christopher Columbus arrived on the Bahamian Island of Guanahani (San Salvador) in 1492, he encountered the Taíno people, whom he described in letters as "naked as the day they were born." The Taíno had complex hierarchical religious, political, and social systems. Skilled farmers and navigators, they wrote music and poetry and created powerfully expressive objects. At the time of Columbus’s exploration, the Taíno were the most numerous indigenous people of the Caribbean and inhabited what are now Cuba, Jamaica, Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands. By 1550, the Taíno were close to extinction, many having succumbed to diseases brought by the Spaniards. Taíno influences survived, however, and today appear in the beliefs, religions, language, and music of Caribbean cultures.
Explanation:
Answer:
Columbus called all the people he met in the islands 'Indians', because he was sure that he had reached the Indies. This initial encounter opened up the 'New World' to European colonisation, which would come to have a devastating impact on indigenous populations.

To bring an end to excessive drinking, many women in the 1800s
A. opposed the Shaker movement.
B. supported the abolitionist movement.
C. spoke against the revival movement.
D. joined the temperance movement.
Answer:
D joined the temperance movement
Explanation:
the temperance movement was an organized effort during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries to limit or outlaw the consumption and production of alcoholic beverages in the United States.
To bring an end to excessive drinking, many women in the 1800s joined the temperance movement.
What was temperance movement?The temperance movement is a social movement that encourages moderation or complete abstinence from alcohol intake.
While the movement's founders emphasize alcohol's detrimental impacts on people's health, personality, and family lives, movement participants frequently criticize alcohol intoxication or advocate teetotalism.
Typically, the movement advocates for alcohol education while also calling for the enactment of new laws that forbid the sale of alcohol, either by restricting its availability or outright banning it.
Alcohol played a significant role in colonial life in late 17th-century North America as a beverage, medicine, and good for men, women, and kids. Although drinking was widely accepted and fully integrated into society, being inebriated was not.
For instance, the Ohio Company mandated that settlers plant at least 20 peach plants and 50 apple trees within three years. Land titles would be assured by these plantings.
Hard cider consumption in New England families averaged seven barrels per household per year in 1767, or roughly 35 gallons per person.

How does Anthony Johnson’s story deepen your understanding of the “universe of obligation?”
Answer:
Explanation:
beginnings of slavery. The goal is not to reteach this history, since your class has likely already studied these topics. Rather, the goal of this lesson is to review pieces of this earlier history to deepen students’ understanding of race and to introduce an important concept, universe of obligation. Scholar Helen Fein defines universe of obligation as the circle of individuals and groups toward whom obligations are owed, to whom rules apply, and whose injuries call for amends. In this unit, we extend Fein’s concept and suggest that both nations and individuals can have a universe of obligation. In either case, it consists of those an individual or a society believes are worthy of respect and protection. The story of Anthony Johnson provides students with an opportunity to reflect on how a society’s universe of obligation is defined. Johnson was an African-born resident of Virginia in the seventeenth century who arrived in the New World as an indentured servant. Like many other indentured servants, both white and black, he won his freedom. But unlike many newly freed servants, he became a prominent landowner. during Johnson’s lifetime, Virginia’s attitudes and laws regarding race and slavery changed. Shortly after his death, slavery became a permanent condition reserved for people with dark skin. By studying Johnson’s story, students can trace the change in Virginia’s universe of obligation and see the origins of not only the belief in the existence of different races but also the claim that one race is superior to another. Students will see the seeds of race and racism planted in seventeenth-century Virginia come to fruition in the reading “Are All Men created equal?” (included here as an extension). This reading quotes Alexander Stephens’s “corner-Stone Speech,” delivered on the eve of the civil War, in which the confederate vice president argues that white supremacy is the foundation of Southern society and the new confederate government. Also quoted in this lesson is a Georgia newspaper editor asserting, in 1865, that because the white and black races are “like different coins at mint,” no amount of legislation or education can make them equal. This is a belief and worldview that proved hard to change throughout the Reconstruction era. This lesson, and the history that follows in this unit, underscores the fact that in the United States, race has perhaps been t

Answer:
A decrease in the political authority of the church as a result of changing religious theology

Followers of Martin Luther founded new church denominations, and were collectively known as Protestants. These new denominations weakened the Catholic Church, specially in Northern and Central Europe.

How do you find the area of half a circle with a diamter of 6?
Explanation:
Area of full circle=Πr²
Area of half circle= Πr²/2
Diameter of circle= 6
Radius=r= 3
Area of half circle= Π(3)²/2
= (3.14*9)/2
= 28.26/2
= 14.13
Answer:
14.13
Explanation:
A=1/2[tex]\pi[/tex][tex]r^{2}[/tex]
substitute [tex]\pi[/tex] for 3.14 and r with 3 because half of diameter is 3.
A=1/2*3.14*[tex]3^{2}[/tex] 3 times 3=9
A=1/2*3.14*9
9 times 3.14 is 28.26
A=1/2*28.26
A=14.13
