Answer:

b. import quota

Explanation:

That fact that the United States permits a specific measure of remote cheddar into the nation every year would be a case of an "import quota," since it is setting a breaking point on the import of a particular item.

casualties, impoverished Europe, destroyed three empires, and set the stage for

an even more savage World War II — had many roots.” (Paragraph 3)

assassinating Archduke Franz Ferdinand, the heir to the throne of yet another

European superpower, the Austro-Hungarian empire of the Habsburg

monarchy.” (Paragraph 7)

months, and eventually brought into the maelstrom two million American

‘doughboys.’” (Paragraph 16)

where French, British and eventually, American soldiers were locked in a

remorseless trench warfare with von Schlieffen’s army.” (Paragraph 18)

the U.S. as a threat.

launch an all-out, final offensive.

C. Germany was blamed for the U.S. joining the Allied forces and was essentially

abandoned by the other Central Powers.

focusing on gaining land in the other two fronts.

7. Which of the following best describe how the Schlieffen Plan shaped the overall war?

A. The Schlieffen Plan forced both the Central and Allied Powers to fight on two

horrors of the war.

the first to fall to the Central Powers’ control.

C. The Schlieffen Plan forced Germany to fight on both sides, meaning that this

country conquered more land than the Allied Powers combined.

D. The Schlieffen Plan was an overall failure and fell apart after the first major

battle; neither side had to fight on multiple fronts, as planned, from that point

on.

8. Which of the following best describes the major irony of the Paris Peace Conference?

A. It was entirely run by the leader of the country that fought the briefest in the

war.

B. The United States was given a very large role in the Peace Conference even

though they supported Germany for the first half of the war.

the alliances that caused WWI in the first place.

<span>There had been conflicts between whites and Native Americans since the first white settlers arrived in North America. But in the early 1800s, the issue had come down to white settlers encroaching on Indian lands in the southern United States.

Five Indian tribes were located on land that would be highly sought for settlement, especially as it was prime land for the cultivation of cotton. The tribes on the land were the Cherokee, Choctaw, Chickasaw, Creek, and Seminole.

Over time the tribes in the south tended to adopt white ways such as taking up farming in the tradition of white settlers and in some cases even buying and owning African American slaves.

These efforts at assimilation led to the tribes becoming known as the “Five Civilized Tribes.” Yet taking up the ways of the white settlers did not mean the Indians would be able to keep their lands.

In fact, settlers hungry for land were actually dismayed to see Indians, contrary to all the propaganda about them being savages, adopt the farming practices of the white Americans.</span>

India was first administered by a private company called East India Company, formed in 1600. The company had its own armies, governing officials, and a judiciary.  The country was dissatisfied with the Company rule, leading to the Sepoy Rebellion on 1857. The British Crown intervened and ruled the country in, establishing the British Raj and completing the British colonization of India. Indians were again discontented with the Crown, resulting to formation of Indian National Congress that worked for independence of the country.
