The correct answer to this open question is the following.

"He who will not be a hammer must be an anvil. An anvil we are today and that anvil will be beaten until out of the anvil we fashion once more a hammer, a German sword!"

The meaning of the excerpt is the following.

Bernhard Von Bülow (1849-1929) was the one who said that quote. He expressed that idea as the Foreign Minister of Germany. What he tried to say was that Germany was ready to strike against those enemies and was also ready to counter-attack any aggression from their enemies. Either way, Germany had the resources to be successful in any situation.

The above-mentioned quote was part of his famous speech "Hammer and the Evil," delivered on December 11, 1899.

What role did the McKinley Tariff play in gaining Hawaii as US state?
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

It caused the Hawaiian sugarcane market to be undersold by the American

producers which led to an economic depression that swept the islands

Explanation:

McKinley was the representative of an industrial group interested in high protectionist tariffs. Due to his position on this issue and the support of James Sherman for the presidency in 1888, McKinley got a seat on the budget committee of the House of Representatives, and also became close to influential Ohio entrepreneur Markus Hannah. In 1889, McKinley was elected chairman of the committee and became the main author of the law bearing his name in 1890 (McKinley Tariff Bill), which established high import tariffs. The law slightly reduced duties on some types of goods and significantly (up to 18%) increased them on others. At the same time, it gave the president broad powers to raise and lower tariff rates for Latin American states for political reasons or in the form of reprisals.

The McKinley Tariff eliminated the trade advantage of Hawaii sugar producers, who relied overwhelmingly on American markets, - it was done by entering sugar on the duty-free list and granting a bounty to American sugar growers. Thus, the Hawaiian economy experienced depression, and as a result, growers of white sugar advocated for establishment of an American protectorate or outright annexation.

Which quotation from Roosevelt's request for a declaration of war is an example of a hasty generalization?
seraphim [82]

A hasty generalization is a conclusion based on a small sample size, rather than looking at statistics that are much more in line with the typical or average situation.

A sample of hasty generalization is when FDR says in his speech that the attack yesterday on the Hawaiian Islands has caused severe damage to American naval and military forces. I regret to tell you that very many American lives have been lost. FDR based this conclusion on what probably was told but not even the military at Pearl Harbor knew the exact numbers of deceased but several day later.
