A violent incident occurred in India on April 13, 1919. It involved a British military commander ordering his forces to open fire on peaceful protesters. This incident sparked an international outrage. The incident was called the Amritsar Massacre.

The Amritsar massacre was a massacre in the city of Amritsar on April 13, 1919, when soldiers of the British Indian Army commanded by General Reginald Dyer machine-gunned a crowd of thousands of unarmed Sikhs, Hindus and Muslims people, who were gathered in the Jallianwala garden for the Vaisakhi festival.

The massacre permanently marked the relations between India and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, being historically the prelude to the non-cooperation movement led by Mahatma Gandhi between 1920 and 1922.

Explain how and why<br> states in Central<br> America developed<br> and changed over
marta [7]

Answer:

When studying the history of Central America one must first clarify just what Central America is. Today (2019) it is commonly taken to include Guatemala, Belize, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Panama. This definition matches modern political borders. However, in some senses and at some times Central America begins in Mexico, at the Isthmus of Tehuantepec, and the former country of Yucatán was part of Central America. At the other end, before its independence in 1903 Panama was politically and culturally part of the South American country of Colombia, or its predecessors. At times English-speaking Belize, with a quite different history, has been considered as apart from Central America.

Political Evolution of Central America and the Caribbean from 1700 to present

Contemporary political map of Central America

Long and narrow, Central America does not have an obvious center from a geographic point of view. While Guatemala has been historically and religiously a leader, other regions have been unwilling to be part of a confederation based in Guatemala. The geography has made the region hard to govern from any central point. The countries, furthermore, are more diverse than they appear at first glance. Some (Guatemala) have a large indigenous or Native American population, others (Costa Rica) do not. Some (El Salvador) are focused on their Pacific coast, while in others (Belize, Honduras) the Caribbean or Atlantic coast is more important. Panama and to a lesser extent Guatemala and Costa Rica have both coasts playing a significant role. Panama is heavily Americanized, uses the US dollar as its currency, has a large industry and source of revenue (the canal), and a sophistication which comes from the ships passing through the country and previously the U.S. military installations in the Canal Zone.

Compare the roles of the three countries of the Central Powers.
elixir [45]
The countries that made up the Central Powers were the German Empire, the Austria-Hungarian Empire, the Ottoman Empire and the Kingdom of Bulgaria. These countries were called the Central Powers because of their geographical location. The countries that were considered the Central Powers banded together because of their geographical location and because they had a pride and loyalty to each other as the result of past losses. They were located in between the Russian Empire and Great Britain and France. The Russian Empire was located to the east of the Central Powers and Great Britain was to the west of the Central Powers. Among the three countries, Germany had the greatest military advantage. It is also the militarist war designer and strategist that led their alliance. Austria- Hungary unification and involvement during World War I started after the assassination of their King Archduke Ferdinand. Austria and Hungary believed that it was a Serbia assassination plot. The Ottoman Empire signed the alliance with Germany because of its good economic relationship. Bulgaria who came in last in the Alliance. It claimed that Serbia took a part of its land that made it get to war.
