Answer:
Correct answers are:
a. to raise revenue for British troops stationed in the colonies
b. to raise revenue to pay the British debt from the French and Indian War
c. to gain control over the colonists
Explanation:
A, B and C are correct because after the war with France the national debt of Britain was higher than ever. In addition to that they decided to locate large number of troops in the colonies with the goal to protect what was achieved in the war. Of course, all of this meant that they need new taxes. That is why Stamp Act was enacted, because they needed to control the colonists who were paying the taxes more than ever.
D is not correct answer because British crown was trying to make colonists obey them more, not to unify them.
Answer: Adversely affected by changing trends
Explanation:
Every country needs to have multiple diversified exports to be able to combat changing trends in trade as a result of economic trends.
South America exports mostly primary commodities such as foodstuff, oil and other raw materials. If economic conditions lead to the prices of these goods falling then South American economies would face hardships as income earned from exports will fall drastically.
2020 for instance saw the prices of oil fall to very low prices as there weren't enough vessels using fuel due to the various lockdowns around the world. This heavily affected countries reliant on oil exports in South America such as Venezuela and Bolivia.
In short, depending on few exports can be damaging to the economy because economic trends can lead to a downturn in fortune. It is best to have a diversified export portfolio.
Answer:
The battle of Iwo Okinawa was a battle of the Japanese Imperial army military force against the U.S's military force.
On the U.S's side, they did it to attempt acess to mainland Japan, and on Japan's side they did it because it was mid WW2 and they couldn't let the allies stop their conquest to obtain China, the Korean peninsula, and the Philippine islands.
The battle went like this;
- The U.S invaded the island (in February 19, 1945) to try to get access to airfields of the island that was very near the coast (750 miles) of Japan to help plan an easier future mainland invasion into Japanese soil.
- The battle lasted for 5 weeks, making it an excruciatingly bloody battle, having around 7,200 people killed.
- The Japanese started running low on supplies so they had to surrender, U.S was victorious, the island fell into U.S forces.
- The U.S also then later captured Mount Suribachi in the island and planted a flag at the summit.
Casualties: around 7,200
NUMBER OF PEOPLE IN BATTLE: 70,000 U.S soldiers and 18,000 Japanese soldiers
