The Treaty of Paris signed in 1763, was the end of the "French-Indian war", a conflict which took place among three major powers at the time : France, Britain and Spain which fought for the colonies in North America. These powers had Native American tribes allied with each one of them and it is called "French - Indian War" because the British considered the French and the Natives to be their enemies.
Spain might have contemplated this as a victory as it expanded its territories to the east, adding territories to their already vast empire of South and Central America. France basically lost their territories in North America,and their interest of exploiting natural resources such as furs. Finally, although British and Americans expanded their territories to the west, this entreprise was greatly expensive for Britain.
Answer:
The underlying cause of the Cold War was conflicting ideologies.
Explanation:
The underlying cause of the Cold War was conflicting ideologies.
The Cold War refers to a period after World War II up until the early 1990's in which the United States and Soviet Union were in constant conflict. It is referred to as a "cold" war because there was no physical fighting directly between the US and Soviet Union. One of the biggest causes of the Cold War was conflicting ideologies.
<span>It reduced coast-to-coast communication from about 180 days to about a week.
This question is mildly ambiguous due to the word "communication". Does it mean "Speed of sending a message?" or "Speed of moving a physical object?" Given the available options as answers, I will assume the meaning is "Speed of moving a physical object?" With that in mind, let's look at the available options and see what makes sense.
It made coast-to-coast communication instantaneous.
* Even modern jets can't travel from coast to coast instantaneously, so you wouldn't expect a train to do so either. So this choice is just plain silly and therefore wrong.
It reduced coast-to-coast communication from about a week to about a day.
* A stagecoach had an average speed of about 5 mph and covered 60 to 70 miles per day. So it's not going to go from coast to coast in only a week. And since that part of the answer is wrong, this choice is wrong.
It reduced coast-to-coast communication from about 180 days to about a week.
* The 180 day estimate is definitely doable. That's an average speed of about 17 miles per day which is a good speed for a person walking day to day. And that would be about 400 miles per day for the train. The numbers make sense and this is the correct answer.
It made coast-to-coast communication more complicated.
* Let's see. Buy a train ticket and possibly arrange for 6 layovers. Or plan a multiple month trip and possibly coordinate that effort without having any rapid means of communications? This option is just plain silly when you consider the logistics of traveling for several months vs traveling for a mere week. So this is a bad choice.</span>
