How does a proxy war differs from a traditional war?

History
1 answer:
Veronika [31]3 years ago
7 0

Answer/Explanation:

A traditional war is where two or more countries are fighting each other directly, like WWI or WW2. Traditional wars are (as they sound) traditional. These are how most wars were fought throughout history. A proxy war is where a war is instigated by one or more major powers but the major power itself does not actually get involved.

A good example would be the Cold War. The Cold War had many proxy wars within it; for example the Vietnam war. In the Vietnam war, the North was communist and the south was not. The Russians (USSR) was supplying North Vietnam and the Viet Cong (VC) with training and weaponry such as guns, tanks, planes, etc. But Russia (The USSR) never actually fought in the war itself, while America and their plan to contain communism, went and fought directly in Vietnam.

Describe the Ancient Chinese contribution to astrology.
timama [110]

Answer:

In the ancient world, astronomy was important for precise timekeeping, religious ceremonies, and agricultural management. The movement of the sun across the sky determined the seasons, while the lunar cycle of 28 days provided convenient divisions of the year—12 months, based on monath, the Old English word for moon. Chinese astrology and constellations were often used for divination. More than 3,000 years ago, Chinese people invented the 10 Heavenly Stems and 12 Earthly Branches for chronological purposes. These signs are used to designate the hours, days, months and years. However, since most people at that time were illiterate, the signs were difficult to use. Ancient Chinese Astronomy The first Chinese records of astronomy are from about 3000 BC, and they used the circumpolar stars as their reference point for the heavens, unlike the Indo-Europeans who used observations based upon the rising and setting of celestial bodies on the ecliptic and the horizon.
