Use the drop-down menus to indicate the type of economy found in each country. In this country, the government tells an appliance factory that it must produce a minimum of one thousand refrigerators. People are assigned jobs at the factory based on their abilities, and the government determines how much they will be paid. The government decides how much a new refrigerator will cost.

In this country, an appliance factory produces one thousand dishwashers per month. People want more of its dishwashers because of their high quality, so the company hires additional workers. The company decides what the workers’ wages will be and how much the dishwashers will sell for. Most of the profits go to the company’s owners.

with my recent question

answer:

it caused mass african migration, african populations to grow, african empires to topple, and racism against slaves to emerge.

background

early european explorers to the americas likely experienced emotions including awe at the vast "new" environment, amazement at meeting "others," the thrill of the unknown, concern for personal safety, desire for personal reward, and longing for their homeland and those left behind. written and pictorial records attributed to europeans provide the bulk of the records of these early travels. impressions of natives as well as native impressions of europeans are frequently framed in the narratives of the explorers. examination of these records indicates the cautious and curious nature of first encounters.

significance

centuries of ignorance, prejudice, and opinions lacking evidence or scholarly research have tainted traditional views of the earliest meetings between native americans (first nations in canada) and europeans. students may come to recognize how the later period of continued exploration, settlement, and interaction was influenced by these early encounters from the st. lawrence river to georgia.
