It depends on what kind of collapse...If it's a head on depression or just a hiccup of a recession. Either way, the Philippines (like any other nation) is heavily dependent on the United States. Look what happened when the apparent recession hit the Dow, when it fell, the pse fell...hard, up to now stocks couldn't recover because of all the internal and external factors. The external factors are heavily influenced by the states, for example, assuming it reaches a point of depression, it would cease importation of both goods and immigrants, thus we loose our biggest trading partner and one of the biggest sources of the remitances that now form a substantial part of the economy... I think we'd be heading nowhere so quickly we wouldn't even notice that our economy had already collapsed... I mean we haven't even recovered fully since the 1997 financial crisis...(I think) The U.S collapse would bring a collapse of the world economy... If the U.S economy would collapse...that is

No problem! I can help you understand the answers to these questions. Let's take them one by one:
13. How did the Embargo Act of 1807 affect South Carolina?
To answer this question, we need to understand what the Embargo Act of 1807 was. The Embargo Act was a law passed by the United States government that prohibited American ships from leaving the country's ports and banned trade with foreign nations, primarily England and France.
The correct answer is a. It hurt the sale of the planters' rice and cotton.
Explanation: South Carolina was a Southern state heavily reliant on agriculture, particularly the production and export of rice and cotton. The Embargo Act severely impacted the South Carolina economy because the state's planters relied heavily on exporting their rice and cotton to markets in England. With the embargo in place, planters were unable to sell their goods abroad, causing a significant economic setback.
15. How did the National Bank regulate the nation's economy?
The National Bank was established in the United States in 1791. It played a significant role in regulating the country's economy. To understand its functioning, let's go through each answer choice:
a. It controlled the supply of currency: Correct. The National Bank had the power to control the supply of currency, which helped stabilize the economy by regulating the amount of money in circulation.
b. It made loans to businesses: Correct. The National Bank acted as a lending institution, providing loans to businesses. This helped stimulate economic growth and development.
c. It sold government bonds: Although the National Bank did deal with government bonds, it was not the primary way it regulated the nation's economy.
d. It paid high-interest rates: This is not an accurate statement. The National Bank did not pay high-interest rates; rather, it charged interest on loans it provided.
18. Describe the economic and political differences between the upcountry and the low country. How do these differences lead to tensions between the groups?
To answer this question, we need a bit of background on South Carolina's geography and history. The "upcountry" refers to the hilly and inland regions of the state, while the "low country" refers to the coastal areas.
Economic differences: The low country was primarily focused on agriculture, with large landholdings and a reliance on cash crops like rice and cotton. The upcountry, on the other hand, had smaller farms and a more diverse economy, with a focus on subsistence farming and some manufacturing.
Political differences: The low country was dominated by wealthy, slave-owning aristocrats and had a more conservative political outlook. The upcountry had a more democratic and populist political tradition, with many small farmers and less wealth.
These differences led to tensions between the groups because they had contrasting interests and priorities. The low country elites often controlled the state government, leading to policies that favored their own economic and political power. This caused resentment among the upcountry farmers, who felt their needs were being ignored. These tensions eventually led to political conflicts and movements for greater representation and equality between the two regions.
