History

Mrrafil [7]3 years ago

Simply the Age of Enlightenment inspired the American Revolution that sparked the creation of the American Government.

European politics, philosophy, science and communications were radically reoriented during the course of the “long 18th century” (1685-1815) as part of a movement referred to by its participants as the Age of Reason, or simply the Enlightenment.

Enlightenment philosophers John Locke, Charles Montesquieu, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau all developed theories of government in which some or even all the people would govern. These thinkers had a profound effect on the American and French revolutions and the democratic governments that they produced.

The ideas of the French Enlightenment philosophes strongly influenced the American revolutionaries. French intellectuals met in salons like this one to exchange ideas and define their ideals such as liberty, equality, and justice.

Describe ways is which propaganda was used during the war in the United States
nevsk [136]

Answer:

hi kev! i hope this will help you1

Explanation:

RADIO

Radio was probably the most used form of propaganda during the war.  

The programs could be broadcast throughout the United States and around the world, which helped expand its reach.  

The programs that were popular during this time were the "Fireside Chat" of President Roosevelt, which was a radio program with him.  

The show was created in the 1930s, but made several of them during World War II.

MOVIES

At first, the films were quite neutral to war than anything else.

After Pearl Harbor, this changed completely, and the movies began to favor the Allied cause.

Most of the films produced during this time present some kind of aspect in times of war.

They were based on war or established themselves in an atmosphere of war.

This was true even if the movie had nothing to do with war.

POSTERS

The posters were widely used by the United States for propaganda during World War II.  

Most of the posters had a positive message, which differed from other countries and were designed by artists who were not paid for their work.
