1 answer:

5 0

<span>The entire area from San Francisco to Sonora changed because of the number of people who came to seek gold. San Francisco had ships left in the harbor by crew and passengers to seek gold. The city grew from a sleepy Spanish town to a rowdy crime ridden jumping off point to the gold fields. Stockton grew because it was close to Sacamento and Marysville began in the gold rush along with other gold rush towns. Miners dug up the countryside, washed away hillsides with hydraulic equipment, and created mines. The damage can still be seen today and the towns that were made are still places that show their past with pride and let's visitors learn about the past.</span>

Why do the Nazis want the Nazi-Soviet Nonaggression Pact?

VladimirAG [237]

<em>They wanted to invade Poland.</em>

Explanation:

Germany, ruled by Hitler during this time, wanted to essentially take over Europe and spread Nazism. Hitler wanted to keep expanding and he wanted to expand into Poland as well.

On August 23, 1939, Germany and the Soviet Union had signed a non-aggression pact called the German-Soviet Nonaggression Pact. This meant that they had signed an agreement not to attack each other for ten years.

Hitler signed this non-aggression pact because he wanted to be able to invade Poland without fighting the Soviet Union. He knew he would have to be fighting the forces from Great Britain and France on the west and didn't want his east to be fighting him as well.
