How did European and Asian immigrants affect Washington Territory?
A. They contributed as workers and as consumers.
B. They demanded social and economic equality.
C. They caused problems that led to decline.
D. They worked to stop more immigration.
European and Asian immigrants affected Washington Territory primarily in a positive way. Option A is correct, as they contributed as workers and consumers, particularly in the railroad, mining, and fishing industries. Option B is also correct, as they demanded social and economic equality, fighting for labor and civil rights, and advocating for better working conditions and wages. Option C is incorrect, as there is no evidence to suggest that they caused problems that led to a decline; in fact, their contribution played a significant role in the growth of the population and economy. Option D is also incorrect as there is no evidence to suggest they worked to stop more immigration as many of them were immigrants themselves.
How did the completion of the Northern Pacific Railroad lead to the Anti-Chinese Congress?
A. by encouraging more people to migrate
B. by causing more job scarcity
C. by displacing Native Americans
D. by creating an imbalance between slave and free states
The completion of the Northern Pacific Railroad did not lead to the Anti-Chinese Congress. In fact, the Anti-Chinese Congress refers to the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882, which was passed seven years after the railroad's completion. The Chinese Exclusion Act restricted immigration from China and declared that no Chinese immigrants were allowed to become U.S. citizens, due to economic competition and racial prejudice towards Chinese immigrants in the western states. Therefore, none of the options listed are correct as they do not relate to the Anti-Chinese Congress.
you have to pick one
My apologies, I misunderstood the previous instruction. If I had to pick one, it would be option B - by causing more job scarcity. The completion of the Northern Pacific Railroad led to a large influx of workers, both Chinese and non-Chinese, which created more competition for jobs in the western states. This competition for jobs, combined with racial prejudice towards Chinese immigrants, led to increased tensions and ultimately to the passage of the Chinese Exclusion Act, which restricted Chinese immigration.
What do events such as the Anti-Chinese Congress suggest about anti-immigrant sentiment in Washington?
A. It reflected divisions in the nation over slavery.
B. It resulted from hardships experienced by farmers.
C. It signaled a rejection of foreign trade.
D. It was made worse by economic competition.
The Anti-Chinese Congress, or the Chinese Exclusion Act, suggests that there was anti-immigrant sentiment towards Chinese immigrants in the western states, including Washington. Option D is correct, in that the economic competition caused by the completion of the Northern Pacific Railroad and other factors contributed to this sentiment. The Chinese immigrants were seen as a threat to jobs and wages, which fueled discrimination and prejudice against them. The passing of the Chinese Exclusion Act reflected a desire among some Americans to limit immigration and maintain the dominance of the white population. Option A and B are incorrect as they are not related to the sentiment toward immigrants in Washington or the Chinese Exclusion Act, and option C is also incorrect as foreign trade was not a major focal point of the Chinese Exclusion Act.
What pull factor would most likely appear in a discussion of immigration from Europe and Asia?
A. job opportunities
B. land scarcity
C. religious persecution
D. threat of violent conflict
The pull factor that would most likely appear in a discussion of immigration from Europe and Asia is option A - job opportunities. The availability of work, particularly in industries such as mining, railroads, and fishing, was a major draw for immigrants seeking a better life in America. In many cases, immigrants were recruited to work in these industries by companies seeking cheap labor. Option B, land scarcity, is not necessarily a factor that motivated immigration from Europe and Asia as these issues were typically more prevalent in the United States during the westward expansion era. Option C - religious persecution, may be a factor in some cases, particularly for Jewish and Catholic immigrants, but it was not the primary motivation for most European and Asian immigrants. Option D - threat of violent conflict, is also not a factor that motivated immigrants from these regions.
Why did Washington Territory attract so many immigrants from Scandinavian countries?
A. They disliked cold, harsh weather conditions.
B. They had skills in logging, fishing, and farming.
C. They opposed the establishment of socialist governments.
D. They practiced non-Christian faiths in mainly Christian Europe.
Washington Territory attracted many immigrants from Scandinavian countries primarily because of option B - they had skills in logging, fishing, and farming. Scandinavian immigrants brought with them expertise in these industries, particularly in Scandinavian countries where fishing and logging were important parts of the economy. This experience and background made Scandinavian immigrants particularly well-suited to work in the logging and fishing industries in Washington Territory, where these industries were also growing. In addition, Washington Territory had a similar climate to Scandinavia, which made the territory more appealing to immigrants from that region. Option A, cold weather conditions, is not a factor that attracted Scandinavian immigrants to Washington as the climate was similar to that in their home countries. Option C and D are not applicable as they do not relate to the unique factors that attracted Scandinavian immigrants to Washington.
Which condition would have prevented Washington Territory from becoming a state?
A. failure to pass antislavery laws
B. inability to achieve a large enough population
C. ongoing efforts to expel Chinese immigrants
D. unsettled boundary disputes with Britain
Option A, failure to pass anti-slavery laws, would have prevented Washington Territory from becoming a state. The U.S. Congress passed the Pacific Railway Act in 1862, which provided extensive land grants to the Northern Pacific Railroad Company for the construction of a transcontinental railroad across the northern United States. However, Congress attached a clause preventing slavery in any new territories including the Washington Territory. In order to become a state, Washington had to adopt a state constitution with anti-slavery language, which it did in 1889.
Option B is not correct as the population of a territory has never prevented its admission to become a state. Option C is not applicable as Chinese immigrants were not a major player in Washington Statehood. Option D is not correct as unsettled boundary disputes with Britain occurred before Washington became a territory and were resolved through treaties between the US and Britain.

What does Section 1 of Article I of the state constitution suggest about Washington’s state government?
A. It can be changed by amendment.
B. It holds absolute power over citizens.
C. It is secondary to federal government.
D. It serves the people of the state.
Section 1 of Article I of the Washington State Constitution suggests that Washington's state government exists to serve the people of the state. The article states that "All political power is inherent in the people, and governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed, and are established to protect and maintain individual rights." This implies that the government's role is to protect the rights of individuals and to work for the benefit of the people of the state. Option A, it can be changed by amendment, is also correct as this is a fundamental principle of constitutional government. Option B, it holds absolute power over citizens, is incorrect as the article specifically states that the government derives its power from the consent of the governed. Option C is also incorrect as the article does not suggest that the state government is subservient to the federal government.

How does Section 33 of Article I reinforce this purpose?
A. It grants federal officials authority over state and local officials.
B. It makes government officials accountable to citizens.
C. It places limits on citizens’ power of assembly and petition.
D. It signifies a change to the first section of the article.
Section 33 of Article I of the Washington State Constitution reinforces the purpose of the state government by making government leaders accountable to the citizens. Specifically, it states that "Every elective public officer of the state of Washington except judges of courts of record is subject to recall and discharge by the legal voters of the state, or of the political subdivision of the state, from which he was elected whenever a petition demanding his recall, reciting that such officer has committed some act or acts of malfeasance … signed by the percentages of the qualified electors thereof." This implies that the power of the government is derived from the people, who have the right to hold their elected officials accountable through recall petitions. Option A is incorrect since there is no mention of federal officials and authority over state and local officials. Option C is also incorrect as the section does not concern any limitation on citizens’ right of assembly and petition. Option D is incorrect as there is no signification of change to the first section of the article.
Population of Washington Territory
Year Population
1860 11,594
1870 23,955
1880 75,116
1890 357,232
1900 518,103
Use the table to answer the question.
Based on the data, during which decade did Washington Territory become able to apply for statehood?
A. 1870s
B. 1880s
C. 1890s
D. 1900
Washington Territory became able to apply for statehood during the 1880s. The population of Washington Territory in 1880 was 75,116, which shows a considerable surge from the previous decades, and such was enough to enable them to apply for statehood. In fact, Washington was able to apply for statehood in 1889, nearly a full decade after the population of the territory eclipsed 75,000 in 1880. Therefore, option B, 1880s, is the correct answer to this question.
How does the power of the executive branch affect the power of the legislative branch?
A. The attorney general defends or repeals state laws in court.
B. The governor signs or vetoes bills passed by the legislature.
C. The lieutenant governor appoints and oversees the state senate.
D. The treasurer carries out and amends the state budget.
The power of the executive branch can affect the power of the legislative branch in many ways, but option B, the governor signs or vetoes bills passed by the legislature, is the most directly related answer to this question. One of the key powers of the executive branch, specifically the governor, is the power to approve or veto bills passed by the legislative branch. This power allows the governor to influence the legislative agenda and shape public policy. If the governor vetoes a bill, it is generally considered more difficult for the legislature to override the veto than it is to pass a bill through the legislative process in the first place. Therefore, the ability of the governor to veto bills can influence the legislative process, and this is one way in which the power of the executive branch affects the power of the legislative branch.
Option A, the attorney general defends or repeals state laws in court, is not directly related to the question as it deals with the judicial branch. Option C, the lieutenant governor appoints and oversees the state senate, is incorrect as the lieutenant governor plays an important role in the state senate but does not have the authority to appoint or oversee it. Also, option D, the treasurer carries out and amends the state budget, is incorrect as the power of the treasurer is limited to financial management and administration of the budget, rather than policymaking.
How does the state judiciary carry out its responsibilities?
A. by enforcing laws passed by the state legislature
B. by establishing overlapping levels of state and local courts
C. by preventing federal interference in state matters
D. by upholding the positions of state and local executive officials
The state judiciary carries out its responsibilities by enforcing laws passed by the state legislature. One of the primary responsibilities of the state judiciary is to interpret and apply the laws enacted by the state legislature. Judges are tasked with hearing cases, interpreting the law, and issuing judgments on the basis of that interpretation. They are also responsible for upholding the state Constitution and ensuring that the rights of citizens are protected. The state judiciary establishes overlapping levels of state and local courts, as mentioned in option B, but this is not its primary responsibility. Option C, preventing federal interference in state matters, is incorrect as this is not a primary function of the state judiciary. Finally, option D, upholding the positions of state and local executive officials, is incorrect as the judiciary is an independent and separate branch of government from the executive branch, and it is not their responsibility to uphold the positions of the executive officials.
Can you simplify it and just tell me the answer?
The state judiciary carries out its responsibilities by enforcing laws passed by the state legislature.
Why did Washington’s first bid for statehood fail?
A. Delegates could not agree on key provisions of a constitution.
B. The legislature failed to pass appropriate slavery laws.
C. The population of the territory remained below the requirement.
D. Voters did not approve joining the United States.
Washington's first bid for statehood failed because the delegates could not agree on key provisions of a constitution. In 1857, Washington Territory held a constitutional convention to draft a constitution and apply for statehood. However, the delegates were unable to agree on key issues, such as the location of the state capital and the treatment of Native Americans. This disagreement led to a split between the eastern and western portions of the territory, with the eastern delegates favoring a constitution that was more lenient towards slavery. The failure to reach a consensus on these issues ultimately prevented the territory from applying for statehood. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Delegates could not agree on key provisions of a constitution.
How did the expansion of the railroad affect Washington?
A. Railroads broke existing transportation monopolies in the region, shifting settlement away from ports.
B. Railroads increased connections between raw materials and markets, spurring the growth of urban centers.
C. Railroads established an antislavery leadership, attracting a more diverse population of settlers.
D. Railroads made it easier to relocate Native Americans, opening more land to farming.
The expansion of the railroad affected Washington primarily by increasing connections between raw materials and markets, spurring the growth of urban centers, which is option B. As the railroad expanded throughout the territory in the late 19th century, it increased the speed and efficiency of transporting goods, particularly agricultural products, to markets throughout the nation. This led to the growth of urban centers like Seattle, which became a major transportation hub and center of commerce in the region. Railroads broke existing transportation monopolies in the region, shifting settlement away from ports, as mentioned in option A, but this was not the primary impact of railroad expansion. Option C, establishing an antislavery leadership, and attracting a more diverse population of settlers, is incorrect as this is not a direct consequence of railroad expansion in Washington. Option D, making it easier to relocate Native Americans, opening more land to farming
