Explanation:

Andersonville Prison, officially known as Camp Sumter, was a Confederate prison (POW camp) in Georgia that was built to house a large number of Union prisoners concentrated in and around Richmond, Virginia. Andersonville had no access to supplies. It was chosen because it was far inland and was a safe distance from raids from the North. Andersonville Prison was the largest Confederate prison and was known for its unhealthy conditions and high death rate of Union soldiers. What is an ironic conclusion that can be drawn about Andersonville Prison?

The ironic that can be deducted from Andersonville Prison is that Confederacy who built the camp could afford to move a large number of prisoners hundreds of miles to Andersonville Prison but  yet they could not afford to feed and house the prisoners.

Why did Cuba adopt communism in the 1960?
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Castro began increasingly to denounce the United States and to seek support from the communist bloc nations. In the face of rising provocations, the Eisenhower administration at first adopted a policy of patient waiting. During the summer of 1960, however, American policy stiffened. The United States placed a temporary embargo on the purchase of Cuban sugar and urged the 21-nation Organization of American States (OAS) to condemn Cuba's actions. The OAS, while it did not directly criticize the Castro regime on this occasion, did condemn communist interference in the Western Hemisphere.
