Answer:
Muslims were really creative people back in the day (maybe they are now but I have no idea) so they created lots of things, but their creations were stolen because they didn't share the creations, they created things like coaches, clothes for animals, so if you look it up on the internet it would probably say that Americans made that or something. I know that because I have a history club after my school and they tell me loads of some intersting things people wouldn't know.
Secretary of State Marshall suggested his plan to help rebuild European economies after World War as a way of staving off political instability and poverty conditions, which would become breeding grounds for governments that would go against freedom.
Explanation/context:
The "Marshall Plan" was named after the man who then was US Secretary of State, George C. Marshall. Officially the plan was called the European Recovery Program. Marshall announced the plan in 1947, and it went into effect in 1948. The intent was to provide aid and rebuilding to European economies after the damaging effects of World War II.
In his speech introducing the plan, Secretary Marshall presented the plan as aid for any and all nations, saying : "Our policy is not directed against any country, but against hunger, poverty, desperation and chaos. Any government that is willing to assist in recovery will find full co-operation on the part of the United States. Its purpose should be the revival of a working economy in the world so as to permit the emergence of political and social conditions in which free institutions can exist." <em>[I provided more context for the quote you had shown, to see more of his intent in the remarks.]</em>
The view in the communist-controlled Eastern bloc was that the US was trying to use such a policy to spread its influence and threaten their patterns of government under communism. So the plan ended up building allies for the US in Western Europe, while the Eastern European countries sided with the Soviet Union. So it was an example of Cold War tactics of competition between the US and the USSR, apart from the use of military force.
Answer:
Germany handed over its fleet of U-boats
Explanation:
The World War I ended with a win of the Allied forces. Germany did not surrendered though, but instead an armistice was signed. The same was the case with Austria-Hungary, the Ottoman Empire, and Bulgaria. There were multiple limiting things in the armistice for Germany, but it did not affected its military power, nor did the Germans had to give up on any of their weapons, thus they kept everything they had, including their fleet of U-boats. That didn't turned out to be the best move, as Germany was left with a basis to be able to upgrade and start a new war, which happened soon after.
