Answer: The correct answer is option: A. The United States played a key role in the military defeat of Nazi Germany.
Explanation: Roosevelt, was the U.S. Commander-in-Chief, this means that he commanded nearly 90% of America's military resources towards the defeat of Hitler.

But things began to change, people showed less interest in government issues, and the failure of direct democracy led to the formation of an Empire, where only one man was the leader. The period of the Roman Empire was 27 BC to 476 AD.
Another important element in the ending of the Roman Republic was the alliance between Julius Cesar, Marcus Licinius Crassus, and Pompey The Great. This alliance was called the <u>First Triumvirate. </u>
