There are some differences between WWI and WWII

WW1:

- The start of the war was because of the assassination of the Archduke of Austrio-Hungary, Archduke Ferdinand and his wife by a Serbian.

- The war escalated with nations keeping their promises to come to each other's aid in war.

- Germany was not the aggressor. In fact, the government of Germany tried to stop the war between Austria-Hungary and Serbia.

- Technological advance in military was extremely great, with the invention of military bi- and tri- planes, tanks, and others, as well as the advancement in other technology, such as artillery, rifles, etc.

- Japan was part of the Allied Power, taking over German colonies in the Pacific, which later served as part of her empire.

- The War was fought in fronts, with the common ones known as "Western" and "Eastern" Fronts.

WWII:

- The war built up slowly, even starting as soon as Great Depression, which led to the creation of Fascist & Nazi Government.

- Because of either harsh conditions implemented, or not given what they wanted, Japan, Italy, and Germany allied together with other lesser powers to become what is now known as the Axis Power.

- The war was mostly mobile, with little-to-no battle fought with trenches.

- France was defeated, and was split into a group known as "Free French", which fought for French liberation, and "Vichy French", or the puppet government of France under German control.

- The first nuclear weapon was created, and was used in Alamogordo, New Mexico, as a test, and the next two used on Hiroshima Prefrecture, Honshu, Japan, and the other used on Nagasaki Prefrecture, Kyushu, Japan.

- The Allies implemented a less harsh treaty to the Axis sides, but punished war crimes extermely.

A synagogue is a place of Jewish worship, where Jews congregate and see their rabbi and practice the laws of the Torah. Sabbath, or Shabbat, is a weekly practice of rest that starts Friday at sundown and ends Saturday evening. During Shabbat, Jews light candles and observe the rest that G-d took on the seventh day of creating the world.

Kosher is a form of religious dietary restriction that Jews practice. It includes not mixing meats and milk, and not eating animals that have split hooves.

How did commodore perry's actions in Japan represent a change in U.S. foreign policy

Natali [406]

The arrival of Perry was both a blessing and a curse. Japan had been isolationist for a lengthy period of time and marooned sailors who washed up on the shores of Japan were often mistreated and seen as 'invaders'. Russia and the United States were in a competition for trade in the Pacific and Perry's arrival meant that the United States was seeking better treatment of marooned mariners and use of port facilities. This caused Japan to become more engaged and engaging in international commerce, gave the United States a foothold in a new trade relationship and caused Japan to find the need to modernize, economically, politically and culturally.

The concept of checks and balances was established by the authors of the Constitution (3 points)

Musya8 [376]

The correct answer is A) so that no single branch of the government would gain too much power.

The concepts of checks and balances were established by the authors of the Constitution so that no single branch of the government would gain too much power.

This concept is a valuable precept because with the checks and balances system, it can pervent wrongdoings from the other parts of the government and the exercise of power is equally divided. In the United States, the Constitution acknowledges three branches: the executive, that in the presidency of the U.S.; the legislative, that is the House of Representatives and the Senate; and finally, the Judiciary, that is the Supreme Court.
