Answer regarding a cause of tension leading into World War II:
C. Japan began establishing an empire by attacking and conquering its neighbors.
Context/detail:
The conflicts that became part of World War II actually began earlier than the 1939 start of the war in Europe. In Asia, Japan was beginning its imperial conquests before Hitler and Germany began expanding into Czechoslovakia and invading Poland. Japan invaded the Chinese territory of Manchuria in 1931.
The League of Nations condemned Japan in 1933 for the events in Manchuria, but that did little to stop Japan. Japan withdrew from the League of Nations at that time, and by 1937 began further invasions into Chinese territory. Japan's imperial ambitions even reached the point of genocidal acts such as the massacre at Nanking in 1937-1938.
When Japan moved into French Indochina in 1941, the USA froze all Japanese financial assets in the USA and placed an embargo on all oil and gasoline shipments to Japan. The Japanese viewed the embargo as an act of war, and their attack against the US at Pearl Harbor was (from their viewpoint) a response to US trade sanctions against them.
Answer: no
Explanation: Perfection is one of those words we use too lightly. Almost nothing is perfect. We look at something we like (perhaps a great work of art) and call it perfection. A pitcher throws a perfect game if no one gets on base, but is that truly perfection? Is there such a thing as the perfect wine to go with a meal? A perfect pair of shoes to go with an outfit? To me, the answer is no to all of these. There is no perfect here. Nothing we touch will ever be perfect.

First Question:
The conflict of Tidewater vs Piedmont was a result of the various different waves of immigrants to the US. Early English settlers who first arrived in Virginia settled in the areas near the ocean (Tidewater), which had a richer soil and allowed them to produce more crops and generate better revenue. Later immigrants, both from Europe and from other regions in the US, were left with the area of Piedmont, closer to the mountains. The heavy clay made it difficult to farm, creating inequalities between the two regions.
Second Question:
These events foreshadowed the eventual Revolutionary War in two main ways:
1. It provided evidence of how the immigration experience could be so different for each wave of people. Closer to the Revolutionary War, recent immigrants felt a stronger attachment to England, while older gentry already well established in the country felt more American. Also, the differences in income meant that well-off Americans were more interested in governing themselves, as opposed to being taxed by a foreign power.
2. It highlighted issued of territory and division, in particular after the split of Virginia. These issues would become very significant after independence.
