Answer:
The sign that says Human Rights.
Explanation:
The Military and Baseball images have nothing to do with racism and the two hands are reaching for each other as if two different races were agreeing on something or are going to do stuff together instead of fighting. The Human Rights sign makes the most sense because there was a lot of segregation and all people deserve the same rights as white people.
The answer to number 9 is D.
The answer to number 6 is C.
Answer:
- Austria-Hungary was responding to a direct attack against members of its royal family. Austrian Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife were assassinated by terrorists in Sarajevo, Serbia. Austria-Hungary held Serbia responsible.
- Russia mobilized troops in keeping with an alliance it had with Serbia, offering them protection against the threatened military action by Austria-Hungary.
More details:
Various systems of alliances were put in place before World War I. The two main alliance systems were the Triple Entente, which had Britain, France and Russia as allies, and the Triple Alliance, which had Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy as allies. There were also other alliances, such as Russia taking on recently independent Serbia as an ally, as both had ethnic Slavic populations.
So here's how the start of World War I happened. When the Austrian prince and his wife were assassinated in Serbia, the Austrian government threatened the nation of Serbia with retaliatory action (even though the assassination was carried out by a terrorist group, not the Serbian government). Russia responded to Austria's threat, because Russia was bound to protect its Slavic ally, Serbia. Germany responded to the mobilization of Russian troops, and when Germany declared war on Russia in 1914, they implemented a military plan (the Schlieffen Plan), which assumed war would mean they'd have to take on all members of the Triple Entente alliance. So as soon as Germany declared war on Russia, they sent troops to go attack France. That pulled France and Britain into the war immediately as well, and the war spread and became a global conflict.
The answer is they "refused to ratify".
The League of Nations charter became part of the Treaty of Versailles following World War I. President Woodrow Wilson pushed hard for its passing, to the point that he earned the 1919 Nobel Peace Prize. However, when he brought the charter to the U.S. Congress, the members refused to ratify it. Thus, the international organization promoted by President Wilson never became a part of American politics.
