History

Paul [167]2 years ago

The increased Soviet defense spending and the war in Afghanistan combined with a moribund economy forced the Soviets to make difficult decisions.   Mikhail Gorbachev attempted to reform the Soviet economy, but discovered that you cannot give people a little bit of freedom and starting in 1989 the Warsaw Pact nation’s spurned communism in a series of peaceful revolutions.   Starting in 1987 with the signing of the IRBM treaty with Washington the Soviets tempered their positions in the face of continued US confrontation.   In 1989, the Soviets acknowledged they could not win in Afghanistan and withdrew their military from the country.   In 1991, the Soviet regime collapsed due to the dual pressure of political reformists and the terrible economy occasioned by the attempt to match US defense expenditures.

Ultimately, the Afghan invasion and the renewed confrontation with the west it caused led to the fall of communism in not only Russia but throughout Europe.   The communist regime was unable to compete with the economic power of the west and in fact became increasingly dependent on western loans in order to stay in power.   Communism proved itself a failed model and the renewed cold war strained the communist system more than it could take.   Communism was probably doomed anyway; the Afghan invasion and its consequences only sped up the collaps

E) PAN

Explanation:

-Una red de área local (LAN) es una red de computadoras que conecta computadoras y dispositivos de red en un área limitada, un edificio, etc. Las redes de área local pueden ser, por ejemplo, en casa, en la oficina y en la escuela. Una red de área local se distingue generalmente de una red de área amplia por una mayor velocidad de transmisión de datos, una menor cobertura geográfica y la necesidad innecesaria de líneas de comunicación de datos pagadas. Las computadoras conectadas a la misma LAN también pueden compartir impresoras y archivos, por ejemplo.

-La Red de Área Metropolitana (MAN) es una red de transmisión de datos que opera en el territorio de una o más ciudades. Por ejemplo, una ciudad y sus barrios más pequeños, u otras ciudades cercanas que han crecido juntas, pueden formarlo.

-WAN es la abreviatura de red de área amplia. Una red de área amplia puede extenderse por un área bastante grande, como un país o un continente. Incluye una colección de máquinas para ejecutar programas de usuario. Estas máquinas se denominan hosts.

Here's what I want to know: What did "freedom" mean to former slaves? What is the relationship between political rights, economi
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

  • Freedom to former slaves means a new life to them
  • The relationships that existed between all the rights is that they are all for the protection of man.
  • Rights of African Americans were taking away and they became poorer and homeless.
  • The overturned could have been prevented if the agreement before the election was folowed strictly.

Explanation:

A. The proclamation of 1863 brought about the freedom of slaves from the white's domination which has prevented and denies slaves the freedom and equality that should have been enjoyed. Freedom to former slaves has brought about the rights and what they have been denied for all these decades.

Freedom to former slaves gives them to enjoy all rights that they are entitled to that they have suffered a lot on from their slave masters.

B. The relationship that existed between all these types of rights is that they all required lots of investment by the government to ensure functionality in the society in any form that each right might fall. All these rights are related because they are made for the benefit of all human race protection .

C. Reconstruction was doomed to fail because the main aim of reconstruction after the civil war was to bring about freedom and equality for the African American slaves majorly in the south but the election that was conducted in1876 brings about the collapse of this era because the previous agreement before the election has been damaged.

D. FACTORS THAT CAUSED RECONSTRUCTION TO BE OVERTURNED

The 1876 compromise by the southern Democrats was the genesis of how reconstruction was overturned.

The rights that were lost by African Americans which the enjoyed during the reconstruction era was a big factor.

Lots of slaves or freemen were left to be without homes and made poorer.

The election in 1876 also contributes to the fall of the reconstruction era

The corruption with the Republicans also leads to the overturned of the construction era because the Northerners have lost faith in them.

The overturned reconstruction could have been prevented if the Democrats had stuck to the pr-election agreements that were made with African Americans in protecting their rights.
