History

Eva8 [605]3 years ago
4 0

Austria felt that Serbia was overreaching its territorial boundaries and that the only way to forestall it was a preventive war. The death of Ferdinand provided a convenient excuse to go to war with Serbia. In support of Serbia, Russia mobilized its forces against Austria-Hungary, who had declared war on Serbia. Germany declared war on Russia. The United Kingdom and France, allies of Russia, also entered the conflict.

A web of alliances existed between many European countries. Austria allied with Germany, and Serbia allied with Russia. The alliances obligated each country to go to war on behalf of its allies. This dragged more and more countries into the war. The war pitted the Central Powers, consisting of Germany, Austria-Hungary, the Ottoman Empire and Bulgaria, against the Allied Powers, consisting of the United Kingdom, France, Russia and Italy. The United States ultimately entered the war on the Allied side.

morpeh [17]

Answer:

To create fear among people and create obedient subjects who will blindly follow the regime

Explanation:

Secret police organizations are characteristic of authoritarian and totalitarian regimes. They protect the political power of a dictator or regime, and often operate outside the law to repress dissidents and weaken political opposition, frequently using violence.The secret police's role is to keep the totalitarian state totalitarian. (An example being the Gestapo) In certain dictatorships, you see secret police maintaining the state by identifying threats to the state and getting rid of them. They're "secret" because they often carry out illegal tasks like assassination, exile, or torture.Secret police is one of the most important levers of totalitarian regimes. The basic task of the secret police is to protect the absolutist rule of the dictator, and it does so in a variety of violent ways. This, of course, involves acts that are not in accordance with the law for the elimination of political opponents, and even those who are suspected of being against the regime. This creates fear among people and makes them obedient.

Why was forced labor in each region different
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

Forced labor is different from sub-standard or exploitative working conditions found in some factories and employment opportunities worldwide. Victims of unfair or low wages - like those in sweatshops - are not enslaved because they do not work under the threat of a penalty or without volunteering their employment.
