History
1 answer:
ra1l [238]3 years ago
4 0

The main weapon that enabled the Europeans to conquer vast amounts of territories in distance lands was all the new sicknesses that were brought along with them. As stated in the book Guns, Germs and Steel written by <em>Jared Diamond</em> in 1997. The author explains that the Europeans had the technological advances of the era, such as gun powder, rifles, and cannons, but their most devastating weapon was the side effect of their presence, the presence of foreign bacteria to new populations.

1. Why is the United States interested in oil in the Middle East?
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

United States has about 25 billion barrels worth of proven oil reserves in US soil. The United States on average per year uses about 6.7 billion barrels of oil in vehicle fuel, certain liquid products, make technology, etc. That generates the oil industry about $750-800 billion dollars worth of oil. US already controls oil reserves in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and UAE. That's why those countries have developed so much after the Gulf War. This can gain massive profits to oil companies around Western nations. Gas companies like BP, ExxonMobil, Royal Dutch Shell, HESS, and so much other companies. Controlling middle eastern oil reserves promises Western oil industry humongous profits and promising futures for the next 50-60 years. Most people don't notice this. But the war benefits us a lot. The war also helps gains in weapons industry,keep dollar value, etc.

Sorry if confusing. May have left out some info. This is me trying to simplify everything. US Middle East interests is a very long a complex history.

Honest answer is oil. Yes, we have seven times the reserves here, but the left refuses to let us explore and develop that oil. In the USA we have over 400 years of oil in the Green River reserve alone.

I am not sure if this is what you want but hope this helps

alexdok [17]

Answer:Fascism is a political ideology that includes both Nationalism and militarism, but Nationalism and militarism are phenomena that can exist hand-in-hand or independently of one another. It is possible to be one and not the other. A Nationalist country will generally stress military strength, but this doesn’t necessarily constitute militarism.

What were the causes and consequences of racial tension in the 1940s
Olin [163]

Answer:

No group was harder hit than African Americans, however. By 1932, approximately half of black Americans were out of work. In some Northern cities, whites called for blacks to be fired from any jobs as long as there were whites out of work. Racial violence again became more common, especially in the South. Lynchings, which had declined to eight in 1932, surged to 28 in 1933.

Although most African Americans traditionally voted Republican, the election of President Franklin Roosevelt began to change voting patterns. Roosevelt entertained African-American visitors at the White House and was known to have a number of black advisors. According to historian John Hope Franklin, many African Americans were excited by the energy with which Roosevelt began tackling the problems of the Depression and gained "a sense of belonging they had never experienced before" from his fireside chats.
