Why did nativism rise in the 1920s and 1930s?

Answers

The rise of nativism in the 1920s was caused mainly by immigration. the massive influx of "new" immigrants scared most of the population. then after WWI Americans were even more afraid that immigrants from war torn Europe would leave to start new lives in America. they did not want the immigrants to take their jobs. but so many new jobs were being made available in this time period that it was inevitable.

What was one way that Athens was more democratic than Sparta

Answers

D) Athens had a true legislature while Sparta did not.

The legislative branch of government in Athens had two bodies in it: the Council of 500 and the Assembly of 6,000.

Sparta really didn't have a legislature, but rather the Gerousia, or council of elders, made up of men over the age of sixty.

Athens and Sparta were very different cities.

Athens developed a system that valued philosophy and active political involvement by its citizens in an early form of democracy. (Note that it wasn't full democracy as we'd think of it today, as those who had a political voice were free men, not women or slaves.)

Sparta developed a militaristic system that valued physical training and military service, as well as strict loyalty to the state.
Spartans were the first ones to present the democratic society (combined with monarchy) more than 150 years before Athens. 
How come?
With two kings,Gerousia,ephoroi and democratic assembly NO one had an absolute power(while mathematically democratic assembly made from all citizens had the most power,even to exile kings), and all (Elders,Ephoroi,Kings,Assembly) controlled and limited the power of each other. 

So the assembly of all male citizens (their representatives) basically ruled Sparta.What is that if not democracy? 

Athenians did no such thing,their "democratic" system was an absolute power of an assembly that was consequently very popular pray for power hungry,and the place in it was won by all kinds of unmoral deceptions,misuse of poor blind and illiterate etc
Being passive or not military effective has nothing to do with democratic society...Contrary to the popular belief Spartan citizens were not repressed...they wished and believed in what they were doing. How undemocratic was Athenian society clearly shows their treatment of women.
