The Tripartite Pact was an agreement between the Axis powers of Germany, Italy, and Japan. It meant that they would come to one another’s aid in war. The pact warned the United States that if the country went to war with one of the Axis powers, it would be at war with all of them.

The Tripartite Pact was signed between Italy, Germany and Japan on 27 September 1940. It was an anti American alliance, stating that each country would aid any of the others that was attacked by the USA.

The significance was that it bound all 3 to fight against America if America entered WW2 on the side of Britain (the only country still fighting Germany and Italy at the time), or if USA attacked Japan; all 3 were expressing official hostility against America, a neutral nation at the time, and therefore the opposition of all 3 to any country that had a liberal democratic system of government. 

However, following the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor 7 December 1941 and the German and Italian declaration of war on USA 11 December 1941, the Tripartite Pact became entirely defunct, as all 3 signatories were now at war with America of their own choosing.

Based on this passage, which values seem to be most important to the maori?

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

A). Freedom and Individuality

Explanation:

As per the details and descriptions provided in this passage, the most significant values to the Maori people would be their 'freedom and individuality.' This is clearly reflected from the harsh decision taken by Tü and his brothers to kill their beloved parents 'Rangi and Papa' as they were hindering their sons' liberty and distinctiveness. They were tightly embraced and constricted that there was no space to move out of that shell and lead their own lives. Thus, they decide to kill their parents in order to free themselves. This shows how important 'liberty and individuality' was for the Maori people. Hence, option A is the correct answer.
