What can you say about Communist expansion between 1920 and 1950?
kherson [118]

Answer:

Between 1920 and until the early 1940s, the only communist country was the Soviet Union, where the first communist revolution, led by Vladimir Lenin, was successful in 1917.

From the early 1940s onward, communism began to expand rapidly to many areas in the world. For example, after the end of World War II, the Soviet Union expanded communism in Eastern European Countries like Poland, Hungary, and Romania, where it installed puppet governments.

In 1949, another important country became comunist: China. Led by Mao Zedong, the Chinese communists won the civil war against the Chinese nationalists (the Kuomintang, who later fled to Taiwan). In the same year, the Chinese People's Republic was proclaimed.

Question 1 of 17
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

C. Consuls.

Explanation:

Power in the Roman Republic was distributed among various levels, among which the post of a consul is the highest elected post. This post is held by individuals that are elected by the citizens for a one-year term.

Consuls are similar to that of head-of-states. They had power over the military, represented the state in foreign affairs, and also presided over important sessions or events. Every year, two individuals are elected to be the consul, but with the coming of emperors, the power of the consuls declined as the emperor held most of the high-authority powers.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.
