Answer:

Britain-was left with debt after the war

American Indians- failed to receive their promised land

American colonists- Bore the burden of new taxes to pay for the war

I guess in a way you could say that the American colonists were also left with the debt after the war seeing as though they had to pay it.

I think it’s:
American colonists—> bore the burden of new taxes to pay for the war
Britain—> left with huge financial debt after the war
American Indians —>failed to received their promises land

How are Louisiana’s Supreme Court Justices chosen?

Answers

In the state of Louisiana, state level Supreme Court Justices are elected through PARTISAN ELECTIONS. Unlike most states, Louisiana Supreme Court Justices are elected to represent specific districts. The only states currently using a similar system are Mississippi, Illinois, and Kentucky.

The current Louisiana Constitution of 1974, as amended in 1980, provides for a Supreme Court composed of a Justice elected from each of seven Supreme Court Districts, serving a term of 10 years.

Pacific Goldby Gordon Grimwade1 Gold brings out the best and the worst in people. In the lands bordering the Pacific Ocean, gold has helped many countries and individuals to prosper. It has also caused destruction and heartache. Through the millennia, strong friendships have bound gold seekers together in the most challenging of environments. But, unfortunately, the lure of gold has also stirred some to uncivilized ruthlessness and aggression.Not Just California2 In the 19th century, the west coast of the United States, the freezing isolation of Alaska and Yukon, inland Australia, and the rolling hills of New Zealand have all welcomed thousands of gold seekers. Day after day, they jostled, dug, and suffered as they sought to strike it rich. Some achieved their dreams. Most did not.3 The search for Pacific gold, however, dates back much farther than those 19th-century gold rushes. Beginning around 1521, Spanish conquistadors pillaged, attacked, and destroyed the Inca and Aztec empires in South and Central America. Using what came to be called "treasure galleons," they carted shiploads of gold to Europe.4 Half a world away, in the Philippines, gold was used to produce elaborate ornaments long before the Spanish colonized the region in 1565. Elsewhere in the Western Pacific, gold mining was yet to achieve widespread prominence. From the 17th to 20th centuries, the Sado Mine in Japan was a steady source of gold. It is only in recent times that China has become the world's largest gold producer. New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, and Australia had gold tucked away in their lands, but the original inhabitants had little time for digging or processing this yellow metal. That changed dramatically in the mid-19th century. By this time, Europeans had arrived, and they were keen to find gold.5 In Papua New Guinea, traces of gold were found in pottery in the 1850s. But, it was not until 1888 that gold was reported on the country's Sudest Island. The modest rush that followed attracted around 400 miners. This number, however, pales in comparison with other 19th-century gold discoveries around the Pacific. Still, we must not overlook Papua New Guinea simply because of its humble beginnings. In recent years, it has ranked as the world's 13th largest gold producer.'Instant' Towns6 The major gold rushes in the Pacific area started in 1848, when gold was reported in California. Towns grew up almost overnight. Initially, they were a scatter of canvas tents linked by rough, muddy tracks. Few lasted beyond the local gold rushes. San Francisco, however, is a notable exception. It turned from a small settlement into a major city within just a few years.7 In many newly discovered goldfields, market gardens were developed along fertile river valleys, and wagons would cart supplies to the goldfields from the port towns. Those who discarded their picks and shovels and opened shops or businesses that took wagonloads of supplies to the waiting miners often profited more than those who remained in the field.8 Such experiences were not specific to the Pacific Northwest. Similar tales are told far across the Pacific. In 1851, gold was first discovered in the Australian state of New South Wales. A few months later, it was discovered further south in Victoria. The result was another rush of gold-hungry hopefuls.Riches For the Few9 In 1861, the rugged hills of New Zealand were also ringing to the sound of miners' picks. Experienced miners, some from the goldfields in the United States and Canada, and "new chums" were soon risking their lives along the rivers of the Otago region of New Zealand's South Island. Canvas tents that afforded some protection in milder climates were discarded in favor of rough-built stone cottages. Once again, however, gold eluded most of those who believed somewhere, sometime they would find riches beyond their wildest dreams.10 In the 1890s, according to Canadian historians Pierre Berton and Douglas Allen, an "estimated 100,000 people set out for the Klondike [in northwest Canada], 30,000 reached Dawson, half of whom looked for gold, but only 4,000 found any. A few hundred got rich." Not ideal statistics, you must admit.11 Klondike miners had to trek over 30 miles through ice and snow and cross the notorious Chilkoot Pass, 3500 feet above sea level. Each miner was legally required to be self-sufficient for a year. That meant each miner had to carry about a ton of gear. This was achievable only by ferrying small amounts at a time. It was slow, heavy work at those altitudes and all in the hopes of striking it rich. WILL GIVE BRAINLIESTPassage 1: Excerpt of John Muir's "Calypso Borealis"[1] After earning a few dollars working on my brother-in law's farm near Portage [Wisconsin], I set off on the first of my long lonely excursions, botanising in glorious freedom around the Great Lakes and wandering through innumerable tamarac and arbor-vitae swamps, and forests of maple, basswood, ash, elm, balsam, fir, pine, spruce, hemlock, rejoicing in their bound wealth and strength and beauty, climbing the trees, revelling in their flowers and fruit like bees in beds of goldenrods, glorying in the fresh cool beauty and charm of the bog and meadow heathworts, grasses, carices, ferns, mosses, liverworts displayed in boundless profusion.[2] The rarest and most beautiful of the flowering plants I discovered on this first grand excursion was Calypso borealis (the Hider of the North). I had been fording streams more and more difficult to cross and wading bogs and swamps that seemed more and more extensive and more difficult to force one's way through. Entering one of these great tamarac and arbor-vitae swamps one morning, holding a general though very crooked course by compass, struggling through tangled drooping branches and over and under broad heaps of fallen trees, I began to fear that I would not be able to reach dry ground before dark, and therefore would have to pass the night in the swamp and began, faint and hungry, to plan a nest of branches on one of the largest trees or windfalls like a monkey's nest, or eagle's, or Indian's in the flooded forests of the Orinoco described by Humboldt.[3] But when the sun was getting low and everything seemed most bewildering and discouraging, I found beautiful Calypso on the mossy bank of a stream, growing not in the ground but on a bed of yellow mosses in which its small white bulb had found a soft nest and from which its one leaf and one flower sprung. The flower was white and made the impression of the utmost simple purity like a snowflower. No other bloom was near it, for the bog a short distance below the surface was still frozen, and the water was ice cold. It seemed the most spiritual of all the flower people I had ever met. I sat down beside it and fairly cried for joy[6] Oftentimes I had to sleep without blankets, and sometimes without supper, but usually I had no great difficulty in finding a loaf of bread here and there at the houses of the farmer settlers in the widely scattered clearings. With one of these large backwoods loaves I was able to wander many a long wild fertile mile in the forests and bogs, free as the winds, gathering plants, and glorying in God's abounding inexhaustible spiritual beauty bread. Storms, thunderclouds, winds in the woodswere welcomed as friends.Passage 2: William Wordsworth's "I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud"[1]I wandered lonely as a cloudThat floats on high o'er vales and hills,When all at once I saw a crowd,A host, of golden daffodils;[5]Beside the lake, beneath the trees,Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.Continuous as the stars that shineAnd twinkle on the milky way,They stretched in never-ending line[10]Along the margin of a bay:Ten thousand saw I at a glance,Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.The waves beside them danced; but theyOut-did the sparkling waves in glee:[15]A poet could not but be gay,In such a jocund company:I gazedand gazedbut little thoughtWhat wealth the show to me had brought:For oft, when on my couch I lie[20]In vacant or in pensive mood,They flash upon that inward eyeWhich is the bliss of solitude;And then my heart with pleasure fills,And dances with the daffodils.Both passages use the word "lonely" in their first sentence.
