The American flag has symbolic meanings with every stripe and color. The 13 alternating red and white horizontal stripes have their symbolic meanings. The 6 white stripes symbolize innocence and purity contrasted by the 7 red stripes representing resilience, stamina, strength and courage. The blue rectangle in the top left hand corner represents The Chief, as well as dignity and justice. The original "Betsy Ross Flag" that had 13 stars located in a circle and was our flag for around 50 years, was taken as inspiration for the 50 stars located on the left hand corner of our flag today. Symbolizing the 50 states of the United States of America.

I hope this helps!

In what two ways were the Tang and Song dynasties of China similar?
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

2.They were economically strong.

4.They ruled for about 300 years.

Explanation:

Both dynasties ruled about 300 years: the Tang Dynasty from 618 to 907 and the Song Dynasty from 960 to 1279.

Likewise, both economies were strong and based mainly on ocean trade in which silk was the largest export, this was thanks to the Grand Canal (built during the Tang Dynasty) which was the world’s longest canal at the time and linked China to the West and encouraged north-south trade within China. Furthermore, during this era, numerous inventions emerged such as the magnetic compass for sailing, paper money, porcelain, the mechanical clock and gunpowder, and the technology and science advanced to the point that China became the most advanced in the world during this era.

<u>Answer for question 1</u>

Two of the reasons the United States finally decided to join the war on the side of the Allies were:

  • Germany broke his promises of suspending unrestricted submarine warfare in the North Atlantic and the Mediterranean on February 1, 1917. And two days later they provoked the sinking of the American cargo ship <em>Housatonic</em>.
  • The <em>Zimmermann Telegram</em> was intercepted and deciphered by British code breakers and later sent to the U.S. on February 20 of the same year, and released to the media on 28th. The telegram was a secret message in which the German foreign secretary, Arthur Zimmermann, proposed Mexico an alliance in the case of war between the U.S. and Germany, promising Mexico financial and territorial rewards for its support.  

<u>Answer for question 2</u><u> </u>

Woodrow Wilson's plan for world peace was called "The Fourteen Points".

The Fourteen Points speech, given on January 8, 1918, was a statement that set out fourteen separate points describing the essential elements and proposals for a peaceful settlement in WW1.

Its main goal was to achieve peace between nations by bringing justice to all nationalities, which included to not treat too harshly the defeated <em>Central Powers. </em>

Some of the proposals stated in the peace plan included: to eliminate the general causes of the war (Disarmament, free trade, freedom of the seas, the adoption of open diplomacy in Europe instead of secret agreements, etc.), the evacuation of the <em>Central Power</em> from the countries invaded during the war, the <em>League of Nations</em> (a peace-keeping organization to guarantee the political and territorial independence of countries) and the establishment of the conditions for the Armistice that brought an end to World War I.

Two of the reasons the plan failed:

  • England, France, and Italy disagreed in some of the Fourteen Point's proposals since their intention after the war was to regain what they had lost by harshly punishing Germany, through <em>The Treaty of Versailles</em>, in which Germany was forced to sign.
  • Even though, Wilson campaigned throughout the U.S. trying to convince Americans to accept to be part of the <em>League of Nations</em>, the Senate and American people never accepted. They believed that such foreign participation could lead them into another war.
