Answer:

The Gallipoli Campaign was fought on the Turkish peninsula of Gallipoli from 1915 to 1916, during World War I.

The campaign began in February 1915 with a massive bombardment from British and French warships against the Ottoman forts that defended the strait, and which failed mainly due to the presence of mines in the sea, placed by the Turkish military. This failure promoted the need for a combined operation between commanders and governments, in the form of landing, between British and French in order to conquer the Ottoman capital of Constantinople (present-day Istanbul). The control of the straits would allow France and the United Kingdom to revitalize the Russian Empire and enclose the Central Powers. The Russians urgently needed weaponry to confront the Central Powers that bounded it: the German Empire, the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the Ottoman Empire.

This idea, defended above all by Winston Churchill, would begin with the landing near Gallipoli, but the allies failed to penetrate the Ottoman territory by surprise and failed in the successive offensives which lasted until January 1916, with a result of about 250,000 casualties for each side.

faltersainse [42]

Preamble an improvement over the opening sentences of the Articles of Confederation.

The opening statement of the Constitution is Preamble which gives an insight into the minds of the Drafters of the Constitution as to why they chose Republic form of government. Preamble has substituted the Articles of Confederation.

Preamble is certainly an improvement over the opening words of the Articles of Confederation in form as well as content. If we talk about form, the preamble is concise, shorter and conveys its goals clearly and with regards to content it defines American nation as one single entity which is created not by the States but by the people of America.
