Russia and Britain competed for Persia because it offered

5 0

During the 19th century, almost from 1830 onwards, two great empires butted heads with each other in a diplomatic and political confrontation over the control of central Asia and especially the access that the lands of this region provided to India, which was part of the British Empire. The two empires fighting were Britain and Russia. Both were looking for these lands and each were doubtful about the control the other had on the regions, especially in Asia and Europe. This led to a situation known as the Great Game, which ended in a military confrontation in 1838. Although part of the reason of the confrontation was the desire for control of Central Asia, the main reason for this was the desire of both empires to outdo the other in the control of the land and resources that were offered by the countries of the region. The correct answer here then is C: land and resources.

What does it mean to preserve protect and defend the constitution
Katen [24]

Answer:

What is the time relationship between a President’s assumption of office and his taking the oath? Apparently, the former comes first, this answer appearing to be the assumption of the language of the clause. The Second Congress assumed that President Washington took office on March 4, 1789,1 although he did not take the oath until the following April 30.

That the oath the President is required to take might be considered to add anything to the powers of the President, because of his obligation to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution, might appear to be rather a fanciful idea. But in President Jackson’s message announcing his veto of the act renewing the Bank of the United States there is language which suggests that the President has the right to refuse to enforce both statutes and judicial decisions based on his own independent decision that they were unwarranted by the Constitution.2 The idea next turned up in a message by President Lincoln justifying his suspension of the writ of habeas corpus without obtaining congressional authorization.3 And counsel to President Johnson during his impeachment trial adverted to the theory, but only in passing.4 Beyond these isolated instances, it does not appear to be seriously contended that the oath adds anything to the President’s powers.
