Washington says that reggie jackson had the most strikeouts in the history of baseball. Baseball statistics is an example of what rhetorical appeal?.

the expansion of the rule of empires over other territories took place as a result of several reasons including economic, ethnocentric, political, and religious, and exploratory purposes.

in terms of economic purposes: imperial governments aimed to maximize profits and with that purpose they neeeded cheap labor, access to or control of markets to sell or buy products. they also desired to find natural resources (precious metals and land). in the awake of   industrial revolution, dependent colonies provided the necessary raw materials that european factories and market needed to manufacture products.  

ethnocentric: many territories were conquered by imperial territories in an attempt to spread their cultures, values and belief as they considered them to be superior. in the late 19th century, for example, european powers held   the racist belief that inferior races should be conquered in order to “civilize” them.

political: another reason that drove conquer and expansion was patriotism and growing imperial power. it refers to national prestige, pride, and security. empires sought strategic territory to ensure access for their navies and armies around the world.

religious: the aim of converting new member of other religions was another factor that prompted expansion.   christian missionaries from europe established churches in conquered territories during the nineteenth century. thus, they spread western cultural values. furthermore, the imperial nation’s language was spread as well, through educational and religious interactions.

exploratory: imperial nations or their citizens aimed to explore territory that was unknown to them,   for different purposes including medical or scientific research, however, at the very   beginning, they did it to embark on adventure. furthermore, imperial explorers sought to discover, map, and claim territory before their imperial competition did, for national and personal glory as well as to realize the imperialist goal of expansion.

there are approximately 11 million illegal immigrants living in the united states.

the argument to restrict immigration is based on the perspective of protecting the safety and employment of the american people. president trump proposes to create a wall on the border with mexico, where there is the largest influx of illegal immigrants into the country.

the liberal perspective, however, is based on the argument that the us was founded by immigrants who came to build a better life with their families. in this sense, there is a special concern with the definitive legalization of "dreamers", young people who have arrived in the country as children. another important point is the concern not to cause traumas with the separation of relatives. making immigration more open would also be a good point to stimulate diversity in the us.
