Answer:

President Theodore Roosevelt used the Roosevelt Corollary in the Dominican Republic because he was afraid European countries would take action against the Dominican Republic if it did not pay its debts.

Explanation:

The Roosevelt Corollary was a substantial amendment to the Monroe Doctrine by President Theodore Roosevelt. In its altered state, the Monroe Doctrine would now consider Latin America and the Caribbean as territory to expand the commercial interests of the United States in the region, in addition to its original purpose of keeping European hegemony outside the hemisphere.

Roosevelt applied his variant to the Monroe Doctrine for the first time taking the customs of the Dominican Republic in 1905 to pay the foreign creditors of that nation. This event provoked a great indignation in the European leaders and in particular of the kaiser Wilhelm II.

How did the United States government enforce conformity among American citizens during World War I?

liberstina [14]

Answer:

The years surrounding America’s involvement in World War I were a watershed for how the United States treated foreigners within its borders during wartime. Immigrants had flooded the United States in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. When the United States declared war on Germany on April 6, 1917, almost a third of Americans were either first or second-generation immigrants. Those born in Germany and even American-born citizens of German descent fell under suspicion of being disloyal.

How does paragraph 3 contribute to the development of the idea that the powers of those in authority must be limited? K12.

Tema [17]

Evidence that the powers of leaders should be limited us given by B. citing incidences of violence that arise when religious or government leaders go too far in exerting power.

You did not include the text in question but this should be the correct answer.

When power is unlimited:

It can sometimes be abused it because leaders will not know where to stop
Leaders might overexert their power such that it leads to violence as people rebel and they try to enforce their right to rule.

This is what happened in the American Revolution, the French Revolution and the partly in the Glorious Revolution (there was no violence here but it happened because the King wanted to overexert himself).

We can therefore conclude that power should be limited unless it could lead to violence as all powerful leaders go too far in exerting their authority.
