In your opinion, how did dictators use the Great Depression to their advantage?
masya89 [10]

Answer:

i don't know how accurate this is, and how clear of an answer this'll be, but here u go:

Explanation:

the great depression would cause problems within the populous that people would want answers for. like a lot of people would be put out of jobs, correct? so many would get desperate for income, along for answers on who is responsible for the loss of jobs on such a large scale.

so like, who would we hold responsible/who do we blame and how do we fix it, are the questions most people would ask. And so, a dictator with power/political person in power, would say "this is who the people are and this is what we should do" and usually they would also say "only i can do it. only I can solve this." Basically, making people only believe that they're the only ones worthy enough for a place in power or for the job. Initially, causing more and more people to vote for them.

So, for example, not to get too political or heated, Donald Trump:

No he isn't a dictator, but he's more of a wanna-be one. So as he would probably say, "the problem with the US is because all these immagrants. They're the ones causing problems for us. But I will put a stop to them and their problems. So vote for me."

This is not an actual quote on quote of what he himself has said, but it's something I hope you can picture.

Basically what he or dictators do are put the blame on others in order to get a higher vote.

hope this helps???

mixer [17]
The correct answer is the US Army.

McCarthy's reign of accusing individuals of being communism really begins in the early 1950's. After claiming he has a list of 205 members of the State Department who are known communists, he catapults to national prominence. Time after time, McCarthy accuses individuals from all walks of life of being communist. Even though he was extremely popular in the beginning of his search for communists, he became discredited due to this claims against the US Army.

Given what you know about the geography and chronology of the Chavin and Nazca, what might explain the fact that the Chavin and
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

In both cultures, the basis of their economy was agriculture. But this was very difficult to carry out due to the geographical conditions in which they were. They were located in an area where the climate was very dry, the land was scarce and there was very little water to irrigate those lands. Both Chavin and Nazca solved this by using underground aqueducts to transport water and, therefore, irrigate the crops permanently. Then, the most important reason why they resorted to this mechanism is the lack of water to irrigate the crops.
