Answer the following two questions. 1. What do you think was the most significant reason for the decline of the Western Roman Empire and the
strongest piece of evidence to support this?
2. Do you think the United States is on the same trajectory as Rome? Why or why not?

1.) Greed and Corruption

2.) yes we are

Explanation:

1.) Rome was riding high for a while because the people trusted the sanity of rulers that did the best for them and brought prosperity, as time went on, unfortunately, Roman rulers were more concerned in accumulating wealth and expoilting the citizens of Rome to do so creating a higher percentage of poverty and making the already rich people richer causing many bad decisions from rulers leading to a revolt of the people and the end of the Roman Empire.

2.) The greater difference between the rich and poor has caused a massive amount of debt and many unhappy people. With current bribery scandals and officials using their position for their own personal gain, people have started to try to change that now, leading to protests and movements to make things more equal. When the current government or the 1% don't do anything to satisfy the people, history will repeat itself and the US form of government will fall.

just like you man, i personally think its either c or d

explanation:

but good luck with the test man

the correct answer is "pioneers carried all of their possessions on long and dangerous trails".

the first wave of pioneers travelled in 1842. they were merely 100 people. the next year that sum climbed to 1000 men, women, and children. these people travelled around 2,000 miles to oregon in the hopes of a better life. although the first part of the trip didn't present many obstacles, as time and miles went by they learnt that threat came from simple things, like becoming ill due to unclean water or bad food.

the weather didn't much, as wagons couldn't protect them from storms. as they travelled through the desert, the intense heat caused wood to shrink. their own lips abscessed and split because of the dry air. the only cure for this was to rub axle grease on their lips.

even crossing rivers was dangerous. sometimes wheels were damaged by unseen rocks on shallow water. mud didn't much either. pioneers were afraid of indian attacks, but there aren't many records of fights between pioneers and native americans. accidents happened because of negligence, exhaustion, guns, and bad weather.

history says that 1 of 10 pioneers who travelled to oregon didn't survive the journey. diseases spread fastly because they didn't have doctors and medical care was ofently improvised. one of the most deadly diseases they came upon was cholera, which became a worldwide pandemia.
