Answer:
Explanation:
Both English philosophers, Hobbes and Locke, believed there is a "social contract" -- that governments are formed by the will of the people. But their theories on why people want to live under governments were very different.
Thomas Hobbes published his political theory in Leviathan in 1651, following the chaos and destruction of the English Civil War. He saw human beings as naturally suspicious of one another, in competition with each other, and harmful toward one another as a result. Forming a government meant giving up personal liberty, but gaining security against what would otherwise be a situation of every person at war with every other person.
John Locke published his Two Treatises on Civil Government in 1690, following the mostly peaceful transition of government power that was the Glorious Revolution in England. Locke believed people are born as blank slates--with no preexisting knowledge or moral leanings. Experience then guides them to the knowledge and the best form of life, and they choose to form governments to make life and society better.
In teaching about Hobbes and Locke, I've often described the difference between them in this way. If society were playground basketball, Hobbes believed you must have a referee who sets and enforces rules, or else the players will eventually get into heated arguments and bloody fights with one another, because people get nasty in competition that way. Locke believed you could have an enjoyable game of playground basketball without a referee, but a referee makes the game better because then any disputes that come up between players have a fair way of being resolved. Of course, Hobbes and Locke never actually wrote about basketball -- a game not invented until 1891 in America by James Naismith. But it's just an illustration I've used to try to show the difference of ideas between Hobbes and Locke. :-)

Answer:
Florida was readmitted to the Union in 1868 after the state granted civil rights to African Americans.
Explanation:
On January 10, 1861, Florida officially announced its secession from the Union, soon joining the Confederacy. The American Civil War would soon begin.
Florida, a major cotton producer, was one of the Confederate's main sources of income - the textile industries of several European countries such as France and England depended on American cotton, and the vast majority of this cotton was produced in Florida.
After the end of the war in June 1865, all states of the Confederacy, including Florida, were occupied by US forces. Florida, to be readmitted again as State of the Union, officially abolished slavery in 1866, and in 1868 the Florida government guaranteed civil rights to all citizens, thus being readmitted to the Union in the same year.

Answer:
overproduction of goods
Explanation:
The Great Depression of the 1930s was the largest recession in history and its causes were overproduction of goods and the expansion of unbridled credit by banks. The American economy was experiencing a period of euphoria during the 1920s. The US had become the world's leading economic powerhouse and was the largest supplier of manufactures to Europe. The factories took credit and greatly increased their production, causing overproduction.
Europe recovered from the war and drastically reduced imports of American manufactured goods. However, production increased in a way that there was not enough consumer market to dispose of the products. The businessmen lost the conditions to pay their loans to the banks and the financial system collapsed.
