The answer is A. The Ottoman and Mughal Empires were primarily Sunni while the Safavid was Shia.
Strengths: As compared to the South, the North had a lot more advantages, such as built up infrastructures and a factory-based economy, a larger population, a stronger relationship and better political ties with the outside world.
Weakness: The North suffered from poor general leaderships, underestimation of the South, belief that the war would end soon, and so took a lax approach.

Answer: in the 2nd part of the 19th century USA were convinced of their racial superiority (also thanks to social Darwinism, biologization of social sciences and biological determinism that existed in Europe but also in the South America) and felt their obligation to reform the "inferior races" of the region. So Washington bureaucrats attempted to reshape countries such as Cuba into model versions of their own republic. That is what happened in times of Theodor Roosevelt´s bureaucracy. But before that "conquest" of the South was something which was an affair of adventurers and entrepreneurs with frequently economic interests (William Wheelwright in Chile, Stephens in Central America).
Explanation: Presidents like Thomas Jefferson and John Adams viewed Spanish possessions, including Florida, today´s Texas, and Cuba, as regions that should and would be incorporated into the United
States. Racial aspect was always present ...many people in the USA saw themselves as part of a superior Anglo-Saxon race.
I am going to presume you mean WWII. The people back in the United States supported the servicemen in many ways. They went on rations of those items that were hard to get in wartime such as gasoline, sugar, fuel oil, tires, and nylons. They often cut back on their own food so there was enough to send to the troops. They planted victory gardens in their yards to supplement their meals. It is said that with so many planting just a small amount of a garden, regular people produced at least 40% of the vegetables in the United States. They actually started the idea of "recycling" with gathering aluminum cans to be for the soldiers. People also would recycle tire rubber and paper. The government urged Americans to eat less red meat and fats to save it for servicemen's meals. It actually led to healthier lifestyles.Families would have meals like Meatless Mondays when they would eat only vegetables and fruit. There was also Wheatless Wednesdays where they would do without bread or anything that used flour. Americans bought war bonds, served in Red Cross centers and provided entertainment in the USO clubs for military people.
